Knorr Bouillon Cubes gluten-free?

Recommended Posts

I have the soft bouillon cubes from Knorr and I don't see any gluten-free labeling on them. Does anyone know the status on these?

Knorr...yeah do not use them. I contacted them years ago after issues...they said they can not promise gluten free and they constantly change their sources and ingredients to improve their product. Look at using Stocks like Pacific, Kitchen Basics instead. I heard at one point Better then Bullion was good. And there was one other gluten free one I will look up later if I can.

They are labelled gluten free here in the UK and I've had them without problem. Of course please don't assume that applies to other territories!

We use the Herb Ox brand all the time without problems. https://www.amazon.com/Herb-Ox-Bouillon-Chicken-3-33-oz-Gluten/dp/B0005ZVGJY

and Better the Bouillon too https://www.amazon.com/Better-Bouillon-Chicken-Vegetable-Variety/dp/B06XNZ6F9C/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?s=grocery&ie=UTF8&qid=1514660426&sr=1-1-spons&keywords=better%2Bthan%2Bbouillon&th=1

We use Herb Ox just fine - 

I do not believe that Better than Bouillon is gluten free.  Can't remember what on the labelling made me avoid it, but I'd love to try it if someone can tell me I'm wrong.

I'm so confused. I eat it all the time, at least the chicken one. I just read the label and there's certainly nothing to indicate it contains gluten.

check out the label here https://www.amazon.com/Better-Than-Bouillon-Chicken-Base/dp/B000VDSS3C

I can't remember, but it was a few years ago and maybe it had Maltodextrin in it, or maybe it was the 'flavorings' - which I never eat unless it's from a company like Kraft or McCormick that labels clearly.  But given that you eat it safely, maybe I'll contact the company for a clear answer.

Be careful. Even though it reads gluten free in some of the bouillons. There is yeast extract in some them. Be sure to read ingredient’s.

Please check there is no yeast extract. I was looking at them yesterday and there are some that have it.

      That's interesting - that's a lot of gluten! I'll be very curious to see how my son responds to the gluten. In some ways, I guess having a strong reaction would tell us something? It's tough navigating this as a parent and having it be not so clear cut ;\

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @JamieAnn!  Glad you had a good experience at your local Jersey Mike's.  In the town I live in all we have is Subway and they stopped offering gluten free buns. So, I can't eat there anymore. Oh, more recently there has come to our town a Firehouse sub shop and, according to the Internet, they offer gluten free buns but I haven't tried them yet. For super sensitive celiacs, cross-contamination in handling at these sub shops may also be a problem.

      Today, in Uniontown, PA,  I ordered Jersey Mike’s Italian sub on gluten-free bread (paid extra for gluten-free) for my brother who hasn’t had a sub in yrs (neorological prob if consumes). He’s so happy! Their gluten-free bread is from a company that specializes in gluten-free products, some of which I’ve enjoyed before, so figured a sub would be good!

      Most recent gluten challenge guidelines call for the consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in about 4-6 slices of wheat-based bread) for at least 2 weeks.  When celiacs have been on gluten free diets for long periods of time, they often find that when they consume a good amount of gluten, they react much more strongly than they did before going gluten free. They have lost all tolerance to the poison they had when consuming wheat products regularly. That is certainly the case with me. A couple of years ago I accidentally consumed a wheat biscuit my wife had made thinking it was a gluten free one and it made me violently ill. So, I mention that as I don't know if your son has started the gluten challenge yet.
