Kraft will clearly disclose any source of gluten. If you did not see it in the ingredients, it isn't there. Look for the specific words wheat, rye, barley or oats.

I can't offer personal knowledge on this product, I simply don't like bleu cheese so I don't use this dressing. There are only two or three Kraft dressings that are NOT gluten-free. We use the French and Golden Italian, but most others are also safe. If I recall correctly, the ones with gluten are a ranch and a caesar, but don't rely on me for this. It's Kraft, so just read the label.

I would call the company and find out how the blue cheese is made and will they guarentee that it is gluten-free. There may not be any gluten ingredients per se in this but gluten is used in the formation of most blue cheese.

In addition you need to keep in mind that some of us, not all, will react to distilled gluten grain vineager so I always make sure that it is corn or wood derived. Many companies go with the idea that we can all tolerate distilled grain and will consider an item gluten-free even if it contains it.

I personally don't use Kraft products so I haven't tried this dressing since I am lucky to have a Wegmans near by that clearly labels everything that is safe.

I can say from experience, that the Caeaer dressing has wheat in it. I am not sure about the blue cheese, but I think I rememebr seeing it on the list of products from Kraft that were okay!

pnltbox27,

That's a new one. Can't wait till ya get to the stuff you do eat! Just kidding. That's a good question.

All the research I did convinced me it is gluten-free. I was wavering until I visited our gluten-free restaurant and discovered blue cheese on the menu.

Some of the bottled products at the store list wheat on the ingredients. Not sure what that's about. Perhaps they just got tired of all the phone calls and figured it was easier this way.

Never have cared for that stuff anyway. From time to time I'll find a restaurant that serves a good blue cheese dressing and buy some from them. Got that from my Mother. Soon as I started to drive, she would have me go to a place a few miles from our house and get some of their wonderful blue cheese dressing. Sometimes restaurant staff will act like they never heard of such a thing, but they soon enough get you some to go. Got spoiled I guess and just never could be satisfied with the store bought stuff.

I've been getting an excellant fresh made version from Central Market in Dallas, 1000% better than bottled!

best regards, lm

      Advantages vs. Disadvantages of having an official Celiac diagnosis

      By Brianne03 · Posted

      My daughter was recently diagnosed with Celiac; my results are questionable and I have an appointment scheduled to see a GI doctor to further discuss. I have so many odd, ongoing symptoms that could possibly be gluten related, although who really knows!! I am considering going gluten-free whether a Celiac diagnosis is confirmed or not, just to see if there are any improvements with my dermatitis, mouth sores, aching and chronically cold hands, tingling in hands and feet, random joint pains, etc.  What are the advantages vs. disadvantages of having an official Celiac diagnosis? For instance, will it affect life insurance policies, medical insurance rates? What have you personally experienced with or without an official diagnosis? I'm almost afraid there will be more hinderances and hardships if an official diagnosis is given, but maybe I am way off base and missing the positives altogether. We are located in the US. Thank you!

      On the cusp of facing a new life of managing a life with Celiac Disease

      By MHavoc · Posted

      Thank you all for the reply posts.  Yes, the constipation has abated.  I am not sure whether its due to having changed to a gluten-free diet or not, but I do think that there is a reasonable correlation.  I know that I will get over this eventually, but I am finding it hard not to lament missing all of my favorite foods that contain gluten.  Certainly, my health comes first... I guess I never realized how many things contain some element of wheat.  My sister has been living with celiac disease for most of her life, so I have someone who will share her favorite recipes. The next step for me will be my appointment with a Gastroenterologist for the Celiac Team... I hope everyone has a safe and wonderful Thanksgiving!

      Poo changes after 2 weeks

      Thank you. That’s all really helpful. I think it must have been something she ate as the poo colour has settled now.    Starting to see improvements in her tummy, slowly but surely!

      I take all vitamins and supplements.  My cardiologist has me taking B12 5,000 once per weeks.  He gives me complete blood work every 6 months.  He's still building my D levels which is now in 60s.  He wants them in low 80s.  I take 5,000 IU's daily.  With this dosage I've gone from 42 to 65 over a period of about 5 years.  It builds very slowly.   As far as iron, I take a double dose of gentle iron with C on an empty stomach on alternate nights.  Yes, iron is a component for many of us with RLS, but mostly "brain iron" that in some people may require iron transfusions.
