I am giving a baby shower with a friend this weekend where another Celiac will be attending. I know she will want to eat the 7-layer dip my friend is making, but I want to make sure its safe. Read e-mail below from my friend….any one know if Kroger sour cream or shredded cheeses are gluten-free? I've cked on the other ingredients already. Thanks!!!

The sour cream is Kroger brand, all natural, no added ingredients (cream, non-fat milk, enzymes). The cheese is Kroger, too, and it has milk, potato starch, annotto (coloring), and cellulose powder.

We have not had any problems with teh Kroger Cheeses. I personal do not like sour cream so I would not know. You can call kroger's 1800 number durring the middle of the day and get to a live dietiatian that can look up specific product and tell you its gluten status : 1-866-221-4141

We have found that most Kroger products are reasonably safe save the odvious ones like bread :)

You can make 100 percent sure if you want by calling the Kroger 800 number, but I'm absolutely sure the sour cream is gluten-free. I don't use pre-shredded cheese but as you can see they use potato starch and cellulose to keep it from clumping. I personally would eat it without even calling but as there's somebody else involved, you should double check.

      By Vozzyv · Posted

      Anyone else have intermittent left ear ringing and outer right ear pain? Both seem to happen in the evenings.

      If your son eventually becomes very symptomatic, that in itself will help keep him on the diet.  I had a friend who was diagnosed roughly the same time as me and she used to tell me a lot that she could get away with eating certain gluten containing foods.  (Not a good thing to do, but she did all the same).  In time she was unable to tolerate them anymore,  and is now very strict with her diet.   The football situation with the candy:   here in the UK at least, a lot of mainstream chocolate bars and sweets don't actually contain gluten (Bounty Bar, Snickers, Cadbury's Whirl, Crunchie etc) and you may find that that is the case where you live.

      Cross contamination issues with Food Processing Companies

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Soy has been on our safe list for nearly 30 years, it is gluten-free. Most soy sauces do include wheat, and should be avoided. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.       In general if you see "gluten-free" on a label in the USA, Canada, Europe, Australia, etc., it does mean that the food is safe for those with celiac disease, and it does NOT mean that there is 19ppm gluten in it, as some people might lead you to believe. Whenever a company detects gluten in the 5-19ppm (most tests can't accurately go below this level) in foods which they have labelled gluten-free, especially a USA-based company (lawsuits in the USA are far more common and easier to win in such cases), they will immediately seek to find and eliminate the source of the gluten contamination. There is a very common myth or misconception that companies don't care at all if their products test between 5-19ppm, but they definitely do because a product recall could be just around the corner should they hit the 20ppm or higher level. Many people, including myself, now have home test kits like Nima, and companies are definitely aware of this.
