Open Original Shared Link Breakstone Cottage Cheese is owned by Kraft. Kraft's labeling policy is to disclose ALL forms of gluten to include wheat, rye, barley. If you don't see it on the label, it ain't in there. I don't know of any common cottage cheese that contains gluten.

ARCHIVED Wheat DNA Used To Grow Indangered American Chestnut Trees
Lisa replied to Lisa's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I was asked to post this from a member. I would think the "wheat" association, is where it would grab interest of discussion. Although, I would think that bio genetic engineering is far different than transferring the protein found in wheat,(which endangers those with Celiac Disease), to the bearing fruit of a chestnut tree. -

ARCHIVED Does Gluten Affect Mental Focus?
Lisa replied to rain's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Yes. I would contact your doctor and get a full metabolic work-up to check vitamin and mineral deficiencies, first before you explore other issues. Often the neurological symptoms are the last to leave, but you better check to make sure that there may not be an imbalance of some sort. And concentrate on a full - balanced diet. -
ARCHIVED Inhaled/topical Gluten Vs Ingested
Lisa replied to taweavmo3's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I would agree with Gemini. The dust from sanding the plaster could easily have gotten into her nose or mouth. Swallowing the dust could certain trigger a Celiac reaction. I hope she recovers quickly. -

You're welcome Peter. I would also encourage all members to call companies. But, as I have also mentioned in the past, your information is only as good as your customer representative you speak with.

ARCHIVED Deviled Eggs
Lisa replied to conniebky's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Connie, did you use a fresh jar of mayo or one that has been used by gluten eaters on their sandwiches? Look on your bottle of dry mustard. Do you see wheat listed? (sorry, you did answer that) Also, it take time to heal enough that you can notice a specific glutening. Often in the beginning, all foods can be problematic, gluten or not. -
