Hi! I ate the pintos and cheese from taco bell with two crunchy tacos today, because I heard that they were gluten-free. But I forget if the Taco Bell Sauce in the beans is gluten-free? Thank you!

the taco sauce is gluten-free... but you said you had crunchy tacos, did you just get the shells and put your pintos and cheese in them or did you have the meat mixture? If so the meat mixture is NOT gluten-free.

That's exactly what I was thinking. My husband always gets the Southwest Steak Bowl with no Jalapeno sauce & pintos & cheese. He loads them up with sauce. Can't seem to get enough hot sauce.

Pintos and Cheese

Mexican Rice

Suggestions for Wheat and Gluten Sensitive Individuals

- Tostada

- Fiesta Taco Salad (order Chicken instead of Beef; order without the shell and without the Red Strips)

- Express Taco Salad (order Chicken instead of Beef)

- Zesty Chicken BORDER BOWL® (order without the Zesty Dressing and without the Red Strips)

- Southwest Steak Bowl (order without the Creamy Jalapeno Sauce)

The allergen information displayed on this site is based on standard product formulations and is current as of March 1, 2005. Variations may occur due to differences in suppliers, ingredient substitutions, recipe revisions, and/or product production at the restaurant.

That is the taco bell list. Hope it helps.

Like Nini said, the meat in the tacos is NOT gluten-free. You are causing damage to your insides if you are eating it. No matter ifyou are getting a reaction or not.

If you look at the nutritional page the box is "checked" for wheat. The tacos are NOT wheat-free. The meat isn't safe according to the taco bell corporation.

Thanks for the help!! I didnt have a clue that the tacos had gluten! No wonder I kept getting sick. I always thought it was just a cross contamination problem at home or gluten had slipped in somewhere. Now i know why! I use to get 3 tacos from taco bell about every couple days! thanks!

Hmmmm. Maybe we're not looking at the same link? It's this one: Open Original Shared Link

About 10 lines down, it says Taco, then Taco Supreme - under both of these, the Wheat selection is not checked (it's blank), however the Gluten column is checked. I was just wondering how something could not have wheat but still have gluten.

the corn taco shells at taco Bell are NOT gluten free...I looked up "Taco Bell Ingredients". There is oat fiber in the corn tortilla shells and it said the shelld do contain gluten. I got sick, that's why I looked up.

Taco Bell's taco seasoning (if bought at the store) the first ingridient is wheat flour.

Taco Bell corn taco shells have oat fiber - I found out when I ggogled Taco Bell ingredients. I got sick after eating chicken tacos in crunchy shells and wondered why.

      Does anyone else have seborrheic dermatitis

      By CarolTN · Posted

      Thank you to Trents, Scott, Christina and Bohanley for your replies!  I have been gluten-free for about 13 years and mostly dairy-free during that time. I haven't been diagnosed as Celiac. When I did the test I hadn't eaten gluten for two years and the nurse told me the test wouldn't be accurate. Anyway, once in a blue moon I'll get tempted and take a tiny bite of something. If I do this two or three times close together, I'll get nauseated and if I don't throw up right away to stop it, will spend about 8 hours throwing up off and on before it's over.  I've been using Ketaconazole shampoo for about two years. I like T-Gel, but the prescription shampoo is the only thing right now that calms my scalp down. Many times, my scalp looks pink or red. It just feels very inflamed. I wash my hair every day and use Ketaconazole pretty much every day. I've noticed that a hot blow dryer seems to calm things down too.  My dermatologist has guessed (his term) at seborrheic dermatitis. I really need more help than I'm getting.  Thank you to everybody!

      Are Good & Gather Products Safe?

      Are you using the same mixer that you used for your gluten containing baking? That could be your culprit.

      I would ask for a total IGA test (aka, Immunoglobulin A (IgA) and other names as well) to check for IGA deficiency. That test should always be ordered along with the TTG IGA. If someone is IGA deficient, their individual celiac IGA test scores will be artificially low which can result in false negatives. Make sure you are eating generous amounts of gluten leading up to any testing or diagnostic procedure for celiac disease to ensure validity of the results. 10g of gluten daily for a period of at least 2 weeks is what current guidelines are recommending. That's the amount of gluten found in about 4-6 slices of wheat bread.

      There was not a total IGA test done, those were the only two ordered. I would say I was consuming a normal amount of gluten, I am not a huge bread or baked goods eater

      Were you consuming generous amounts of gluten in the weeks leading up to the blood draw for the antibody testing? And was there a Total IGA test done to test for IGA deficiency?
