Is ketchup gluten free?

I did a site search & all I found about it were in recipes. Some specified gluten-free ketchup, others just said ketchup.

I seem to hear conflicting report on the whole viniger thing.

What's a girl to believe?!

Lil

P.S. This is a time sensitive reply, as we are having burgers tonight (with my brand new gluten-free hambuger buns!)

P.P.S. If ketchup/viniger is NOT safe, where do I find gluten-free ketchup?

Trader Joe's organic & Whole Foods "O" or "Organics" brand. They both say white viniger on them though.

I ususally buy organic, but in this case, I could do non-oranic as long as it is gluten-free. I will be stoppibng at Trader Joe's in a bit - if you could recommend a good brand available there, that would make my evening!

I'm not familiar with Trader Joe's brands and I have had problems with Whole Foods Brands so I don't buy them anymore. I use Heinz Ketchup--I know that's safe. However, Heinz Organic Ketchup is NOT gluten-free.

I guess I'll be buying Heinz NON-organic ketchup...

P.S. RANDOM TRIVIA QUESTION: What did the "57" originally refer to? (In the "Heinz 57 Varieties"?)

P.P.S. Thank you...

Update: from Heinz website FAQ:

Where can I find gluten-free products?

Heinz Ketchup and Heinz Organic Ketchup do not contain any gluten (the distilled vinegar used is from corn sources). Also, Wine Vinegar, Distilled White Vinegar and Apple Cider Vinegar are gluten-free. Heinz Hot & Spicy Ketchup Kick'rs is gluten-free as well.

:o Heinz Organic Ketchup is *not* gluten-free? It's what I've been using for the past 2 years or so!

I believe that Heinz has changed their organic ketchup formula since this thread was started more than two years ago. It used to contain gluten, but no longer does, if I understand correctly. I don't use ketchup myself, so I haven't kept track.

Heinz has always been my favorite and is what is in most restaurants. I've never had any reactions to it and often use it with safe mayo (Best Foods) and dill pickles (Clausen's) to make a fast salad dressing ; D

You can look up discussions on vinegar but from what I understand, distilled vinegars are ok as gluten cannot pass through the distillation process. I've also read that according to the FDA if it just says vinegar it is supposed to be apple cider vinegar. I still look everything up online first by googling gluten free and the product name. Sometimes if I'm still unsure I'll call or write to the company.

Thanks. I immediately checked the Heinz website, and they say it is gluten-free there, too. I did a search for ketchup this morning (at this forum) and when I saw the organic ketchup contains gluten, I got a little excited... :huh: I don't eat it very often, maybe 1/2 tsp a couple times a week.

      3 year old gluten intolerance?

      By Nicbent35 · Posted

      Wow she was just playing with play dough yesterday and I actually thought i wonder if I have to worry about play dough! But no meltdowns yesterday. Is your daughter celiac or just gluten sensitive/intolerant? Your son still had to go on Ritalin after going gluten free?

      Colonoscopy with large area of inflammation

      By growlinhard1 · Posted

      I had the endoscopy with biopsy done. I have gastritis and duodenitis at this point. The biopsy should provide the cause of the inflammation findings. How common are these findings when Celiac is the ultimate culprit?

      Anyone else with very high HDL?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Welcome to the forum @cookiesyum, I lasted on staton for about a month before getting so weak I had to stop.   Switched to Nicotinic Acid and I posted the results in a previous post.  Instead of getting sicker and weaker on the statin I feel I am improving day by day.  Nicotinic Acid was first used for cholesterol in 1955.

      3 year old gluten intolerance?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      According to research, consuming gluten can potentially trigger sudden mood swings and increased irritability in children, particularly those with gluten sensitivity or celiac disease, making them more likely to have tantrums or display behavioral issues; this is because gluten can trigger an immune response in the body, potentially impacting brain function and neurotransmitter levels.  When my son was diagnosed in 1976 when he was weaned his doctor told us that at 5 years old his kindergarden teacher would beg us to put him on Ritalin.  And so it did happen.  My son was on Ritalin though high school.  In the morning he was a devil who could not put on his socks. Half an hour after the morning dose he was an angel wanting to help mom get ready.  Talk about Jekyll and Hyde! Dr Danel Amen could be a good resource for you.

      Yes, it certainly can! My daughter has a reaction from just playing with Playdough. She doesn't get GI symptoms at first, just psychological mostly. It can get really bad. It's like night/day behavior. My daughter is eight, but started showing signs around 6.
