    Mayonnaise is one of those foods that's usually made without gluten ingredients, so it's considered naturally gluten-free.

    Celiac.com 07/02/2022 - We get a lot of questions from celiac community members wondering if certain products are gluten-free. One question we see a lot is about mayonnaise. 

    Specifically, is mayonnaise gluten-free and safe for people with celiac disease? Here's the rundown. 

    Celiac.com Sponsor (A12):
    We've actually done articles on both Hellman's and Best Foods Mayonnaise. Yes, they are both considered naturally gluten-free and safe for people with celiac disease. We even did a list of brands of gluten-free mayonnaise brands.

    Mayonnaise is one of those foods that's usually made without gluten ingredients, so it's considered naturally gluten-free. Nearly all top brands of mayonnaise are manufactured without known allergens, including gluten. So, most can be considered gluten-free. That said, not all of them are labeled gluten-free. 

    Many people prefer brands of mayonnaise that are either labeled gluten-free. Here's a list of top brands of gluten-free mayonnaise that are either labeled gluten-free, or made without gluten ingredients and considered safe for people with celiac disease (Egg is the only listed allergen on nearly all of these products).

    As usual, always be careful and check the label, especially for flavored varieties. Watch for gluten ingredients, and choose carefully.

    sc'Que?

    There still seems to be some confusion about whether Kewpie mayo is gluten-free.  The image I found on Amazon showed a pretty inoffensive ingredient list... with the exception of "natural flavors" and "spices".  As someone with both Celiac disease and nightshade allergy, I really wish the FDA would require full-disclosure on all ingredients.

    Regarding this for new celiac patients. Make sure you have your own jar of mayonnaise.  If anyone else dips into it to make a sandwich or whatever,  it's then contaminated.  Don't assume that things made with mayo are gluten free.  Especially when you go out.

    Great advice. I got glutened at a Ritz hotel on a “gluten-free” lobster roll. The. Mayo was gluten-free , but they found out it was being cross contaminated. They told me they were going dedicated Mayo going forward.
