Salad Dressing

hello,

Made a great grilled chicken salad for dinner and used my favorite dressing (Kraft three cheese ranch) I am pretty sure it is safe. It did say modified food starch , but I was under the impression that with Kraft they would go into more detail if it did include any wheat products, am i right?

What salad dressings does everyone else use?

If it was Kraft, and it didn't say anything about wheat, barley, rye, or oats, you're A-OK!

Personally, I use Chick-Fil-A buttermilk ranch, lol.

Whenever I go there (at least once a week) I get one or two extra packets of ranch, and I don't feel guilty because, being chick-fil-A, they charge for EVERYTHING, including extra dressing!!! :P

Yummy and portable!

I use Annie's. Organicville is pretty good too and makes a great gluten-free Goddess dressing (but the Annie's Goddess dressing has gluten). Both will label gluten-free on the bottle.

I usually get either the grilled chicken garden salad or the grilled chicken sandwich, no bun, with fries, etc. I eat there all the time with no problems! :)

You dairy tolerant people kill me!! :angry::angry::angry::D

What I would give to eat a salad topped with Kraft Buttermilk Ranch dressing. The closest I can come is Hidden valley ranch produces a Kosher ranch dressing powder mix (Check the ethnic aisles at the supermarket), and I mix that with soymilk, and soy sour cream. It's not the best tasting, but it cures the need for ranch!!!!

Anyhow, Newmans Own Balsamic Vinaigrette is my absoloute favorite...aside from ranch..

All the dairy intolerant people who miss ranch should try the ranch dressing made out of cashews. You just put cashews in a blender with a few other ingredients and it is amazing. I put it on everything. I even put it on Tinkyada pasta once :D All of my gluten and dairy-eating friends love it too. I think Tarnalberry posted a recipe for it. It is sooooo good!!!!!!

So Im back to the fry thing, when you get fries there do you tell them you have to be gluten-free or you can just order the fries because it is normal for them to be cooked in seperate fryers? Im getting excited to make a trip to Chick-fil-A!!!!

It's normal for the fries to be in a dedicated fryer. They have a fryer for chicken and one for fries. I only mention gluten-free if I'm getting a bunless sandwich, I don't worry about the fries. Just order the fries normally! :D

Oh, yes! Chick Fil A has been a safe place for me. We don't have one hear, so have only done it 3-4 times, but haven't been glutened.

Just an observation, ChelsE, CFA has a grilled chicken breast/patty as an entree. I've always mention bunless, and they always smile and tell me I don't have to worry that if I order the grilled chicken (whatever) entree, that's what I will get and that the entrees are no where near their sandwiches. Color me happy :)

Thanks guys about all of the Chick Fil A info. We have them here, and I never would have thought I could eat there! :D

I always steer away from anything that says "modified food starch" on it, as it's kind of llike playing russian roulette.

My personal favorite is Follow Your Heart Organic Chipotle-Lime Ranch Dressing. It says right on the bottle "gluten-free". I get it at my local co-op. It's yummy (albiet a bit on the spicy side, so if you don't like spicy, don't get it, but I do know that they make other flavors. (It's kept in the refrigerated section).

      @Jack Common, You could do a DNA test to see if you have any of the known genes for Celiac Disease.  If you don't have any genes for celiac disease, look to another source for your health problems.  If you do have celiac disease genes and have improvement on the gluten free diet, you probably have active Celiac.  Further testing would be beneficial. Keep in mind that different gluten containing breads have different amounts of gluten.  Think thick chewy pizza crust and artisan breads, and whole wheat breads for the gluten challenge.  Cookies and pastries do not contain as much gluten.   Since your blood tests were inconclusive, continuing with the gluten challenge may be needed to provoke a stronger autoimmune reaction sufficient for antibodies to get into the blood stream.

      I found out I had celiac because of eye problems. I developed an eye irritation that was sensitive to light, pressure, and red. My eye doctor said I had iritis, an inflammation of the iris. The treatment was prednisone drops. This is a common symptom related to ankylosing spondylitis, a form of arthritis that runs in my family. My doctor wanted to start me on immunosuppressants, but I refused due to side effects. I tried a few anti-inflammatory diets and found the specific carb diet helped, which led my doctor to test me for celiac, which was positive. Now I know when I get glutened because I have a flare up of my iritis. I call it my canary in a coal mine. First the eye, then the arthritis flare up begins.

      Soap, water and scrubbing won’t “kill” gluten, but it will physically remove it if done well if you also add a thorough rinse step.

      Eating out at restaurants is the single most risky environment for cross contamination.  Shared oven racks should be thoroughly cleaned after being used for cooking/baking of gluten containing foods. Better yet, purchase a second set of racks that are used only for one or the other.
