Classico Sauces

Which sauce did you have (flavor)? Maybe your stomach cannot tollerate one of the ingredients in that flavor sauce. I have Classico Sauce all the time and have no problem stomach wise. I do get the after taste from the Tomato Basil though, so I have been trying different flavors.

I am not a tea drinker but have you checked out the tea you are drinking, if it is gluten free? Some are and some are not safe.

Hope you keep feeling better :)

I had the... Tomato and Basil, I think. In fact, I'm pretty sure!

The tea is gluten-free, I checked after I got home. =)

I am feeling much better today, thank you, and I haven't had another problem since Tuesday. I haven't been eating the Classico, either. It's probably just safer, at this point, if I make my own! A friend sent me a great recipe -- the same sauce she made for us this past weekend.

Thanks, GlutenGal!

I have a problem with Prego and not Classico. Only Prego's traditional style is supposed to be totally gluten free and other flavors only in certain size jars (geeez lets keep making things harder!). Anyway its the prego's traditional size that made me sick so I switched to Classico (a little too chunky for me) and I haven't reacted yet. I'm not saying its not the classico making you sick because I read that most people do fine with the prego, its so frusterating trying to figure it out sometimes :(

I realize this thread is pretty old, but I came across it when googling "Classico gluten".

Why, you may ask? Because I am 99.99% certain that I was glutened by the sweet basil Classico sauce.

Tinkyada pasta. Gluten-free kitchen (except for instances like this sauce...). Mozzarella cheese on top (No, it doesn't usually bother me). Violently ill almost instantly.

The sad part is, I had been looking forward to my baked spaghetti for about 3 days. I took a couple bites, felt instantly nauseous, thought I was just crazy or getting sick or something, and I threw the rest in the trash. Little did I know I would continue on with other definitive gluten reaction symptoms...

Classico sauce gets the FAIL award from me.

      Great tips, Deb. Thanks.  What a pity that they no longer mark items as gluten-free. And it is even more of a shame that you must bring protein bars instead of the crew helping you with your needs. Are you planning on sailing Royal again?

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I've not heard of any issues with Primal Kitchen, but it certainly would be worth not using the brand for a while to see if this helps. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful:

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you are super sensitive you may want to look for only Certified Gluten-Free Products, as @trents mentioned.

      Gluten free/ non dairy , low calorie pudding

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I'm not sure about low calorie, as puddings are typically a dessert, but we do have this category: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/gluten-free-recipes/gluten-free-dessert-recipes-pastries-cakes-cookies-etc/gluten-free-pudding-recipes/ This one might work if you cut back on the sugar:

      We are off next week on our 9th RCCL cruise since our diagnoses.  I send an email to special_needs@rccl.com before every cruise letting them know that I am both dairy and gluten free and my husband is gluten free.   Unfortunately, with the new menus they introduced in 2023, they removed the gluten-free designation from each item on the menu.  Instead of having a dedicated person take gluten-free orders, it now falls to your regular wait staff.  Some have been great and some not so good.  We had a great cruise in May and hit it off with our head waiter.  She went the extra mile and ordered gluten free desserts that were not on the menu.  My problem arises from other food allergies.  I am allergic to dairy, beef, and several types of fish.  On those days my husband is a happy camper with a steak or salmon, veggies and a baked potato.  I end up not getting enough protein, so I bring protein bars.  I also bring snacks for the room. As long as the food is commercially prepared and unopened, you can bring it. Often the only dessert choices that are gluten free contain dairy, so I am out of luck.  But, if you are just gluten free, they have plenty of choices.  See the head chef in the Windjammer buffet and he will give you a tour of the gluten-free choices.  They usually have 2 gluten free desserts out at lunch and they are labeled gluten free. We have found that it works best to have assigned dining rather than anytime.  That way the waiters learn from the get go what our needs are, and we don't have to explain ourselves every night.  We also get a private table for 2.  I frankly got sick and tired of tablemates telling me a little bit of gluten would not hurt me.
