  1. Companies who make food are responsible for the food they make and sell. If they lie to the food intolerant community they are liable (meaning they can be sued). And if companies are NOT telling the truth about what is in their food, then how can we educate ourselves. So food producers are responsible for the food they sell. This is the USA and American...
  2. In the US, if they put wheat it in they must list it. Many companies, such as Con-Agra that makes Hunts, will list any gluten or oats in a product.
  3. from this gluten free site, Open Original Shared Link 3. Sour Cream- I hate it when I accidentally bring home the light sour cream instead of the full fat sour cream. I have been hurt by the light sour cream, so if you are still eating dairy, make sure you bring the right kind of sour cream home. Most sour cream is gluten-free, but some brands of full...
  4. Actually, a lot of meats, like deli meat has gluten in it. Gluten is widely used as a filler. That's why Celiacs do not know what has gluten in it or not. THis is why we only use products that state that their products are gluten free. If you buy anything processed, I would check the company to make sure that it is gluten free. Many stores have lists...
  5. I am not sure what your point is. A company that says it up to you to decide is not liable, a company that states their product is gluten free is more liable. This is what these company's statements from their lawyers mean. So saying their product is gluten-free is a lot more meaningful than saying it is up to you. As for Trader Joe's, I have had...
  6. If you need iron with your b12, i get a liquid supplement called floravital (this is there gluten free and yeast free type of liquid iron from veggies). It has b12 in it too. Rainbow light has supplements that are gluten free, i am taking their prenatal one (cause I need the Iron too).
  7. They should not have charged you for remaking it. Maybe the restaurant is rude to waitstaff, or makes them pay for these types of mistakes, which would make any waitperson stressed out. If you want to continue eating there, I would set up a meeting with the manager to find out, if they are willing to accommodate food requests from celiacs. If it was really...
  8. Oh, Nars is gluten free or somewhat gluten free and you can find this information on their website.
  9. So many companies use gluten sometimes and they don't want to say it. It is so frustrating! I am in the process of deglutening my make-up. I have found that neutragena volume mascara works, and my eyes react to gluten (dry eye, jumpy eye, itchy eye and kerataconus). I have used their sensitive-skin face cream and that works fine for me. Neutragena...
  10. Hi Karen, If a company does not test to see if their products has gluten in it, then how would they know? They could be using tomatoes from different vendors and some of those vendors could use gluten. Also, some spice companies use gluten and others do not. My statement is if a company is not willing to test and label their product as gluten free,...
  11. I am thinking of relocating to Fiji (a dream of mine). I wanted to know how easy it is to live a gluten-free lifestyle there. Thanks!
  12. Yes, I had jumpy eye, dry eye and keratoconus . My jumpy eye and dry eye are better with a gluten-free diet and vitamins, but keratoconus is a life long condition. In some studies, keratoconus is linked to/ a complication of celiac disease.
  13. If you list the product type and company we could research whether this specific product has gluten or not purposely in it, if it has a high risk of cross contaimination from where it is made, or the unreliablity of the products they use. I follow this simple rule, if the company does not list their product as gluten-free, it means it's not. I switched...
  14. I contacted (email) Nature's way about whether their chastetree herbal product had gluten or not, and this was their response to me: Thank you for contacting Natures Way a Schwabe North America company. It is good to know you are interested in living a healthy lifestyle. I see you would like some additional information about our Vitex Fruit and if...
  15. Hi, I just joined this forum yesterday and I my posts were looking for a reliable chasteberry/vitex product. I would love to know what brand/product you used that was gluten-free, and how it worked for you? I hope to hear from you soon, gigi
