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 :)

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).

      Thank you so much! I appreciate it, I was thinking the same thing so I guess it's just waiting for the biopsy results now! Thanks again!

      Well come to the forum @AdelaW! One positive celiac blood antibody test with flattened villi in the small bowel would strongly support a diagnosis of celiac disease. There are some other medical problems that could cause these things but the odds of this being the case are very small when compared to the likelihood of celiac disease being the culprit...

      Is it likely this is Celiac?

      Hi! In the last couple weeks I had a blood panel done for digestive issues and tested weak positive for celiac. My tTG IgG was a 6 with the range being 0-5 negative, 6-9 weak positive and 9+ positive. All my other test levels were normal such as tTG IgA, deamidated gliadin Abs IgG and deamidated gliadin Abs IgA. However I must note that my level of IgA was...

      Inhaler problem

      Gluten shows up in Anesthesia, anti- inflammatory meds, pain meds. That's from a real experience because I had dental surgery and Dentist didn't know. I couldn't hold food or water down for over 24 hours. Eventually it wore off but was scary.

      TTG-IGA Question

      This may help you get off onto the right foot: There usually is quite a learning curve involved in attaining to consistency in gluten free eating. Attaining a "low gluten" diet is easy because you simply cut out the obvious things like bread and pasta. It's the places gluten is found in the food industry that you would never expect that trips up newbies...

My tTG IgG was a 6 with the range being 0-5 negative, 6-9 weak positive and 9+ positive. All my other test levels were normal such as tTG IgA, deamidated gliadin Abs IgG and deamidated gliadin Abs IgA. However I must note that my level of IgA was too low and could cause skewed test results so they had to run a second blood panel with the IgG and used that as my main test due to the deficiencies of the IgA antibodies in my immune system overall. So for me the IgA test results seemed to be null due to the deficiency. My doctor stated she was unsure whether this was a false positive and I got an endoscopy today (still waiting for results) but she mentioned my small intestine had some flatness which can be an effect of celiac. With this weak positive and flatness in my small intestine does it seem likely I could have celiac? I just wanted to get some opinions from others in the community, thank you!

      This may help you get off onto the right foot:  There usually is quite a learning curve involved in attaining to consistency in gluten free eating. Attaining a "low gluten" diet is easy because you simply cut out the obvious things like bread and pasta. It's the places gluten is found in the food industry that you would never expect that trips up newbies and also the whole area of cross contamination, which involves things that would be naturally gluten free but come into contact with gluten things and thereby pick up gluten incidentally. So, you order a fried egg and sausage but forget that it will be cooked on the same grill that was used to cook someone else's French toast. Or you go to a spaghetti place and order gluten free pasta but they cook it in the same pot with wheat noodles. That kind of thing. Or you buy cough drops and find out that after sucking on several of them and getting an upset tummy that they contained wheat. Wheat can be used as filler and a texturing agent in pills and meds. And would you ever have thought that soy sauce and Campbells tomato soup would have wheat in them. Read the labels sometime.
