I have this recipe for broccoli, rice and cheese casserole from when I was young, but I just realized that the cheese whiz that I was using has Worstishire (sp) sauce in it. does anyone know of a good substitute for cheese whiz?

Thanks everyone!

Wal-Mart brand cheese type whiz is gluten free and is marked so right on the packaging. Many of their Great Value brand products are marked gluten free on the packaging. One of my favorites in their boxed potatoes.......either scalloped or au gratin. They are so good and much cheaper than the name brand ones. Barbara

Cheese Whiz is a Kraft product. Kraft will always disclose any gluten, in plain English, no matter how small the amount. This is their labeling policy: Open Original Shared Link

If wheat, rye, barley or oats isn't in the ingredients and it's Kraft brand Cheese Whiz, not some other brand, it should be fine. A lot of people are dairy intolerant when they're first diagnosed though, so that may cause problems of it's own.

If it's not Kraft, let us know the brand and maybe someone will know.

I wasn't able to find an ingredient list online and don't use Cheese Whiz myself, so maybe someone will be able to tell you for sure if it's safe.

Worchestershire sauce is sometimes a problem, but only if it contains gluten. It can depend on what country you are in though. For example, in the US Lea & Perrins brand Worchestershire is gluten-free, but in Canada it's not.

I am now taking optimized b100 complex which includes folate 1240 mcg dfe (as 6s methyltetrahydrofolic acid, glucosamine salt, quatrefolic.

      mental health struggles

      I felt betrayed by the food I was eating, I was angry at Agrobusiness. Angry at myself because I blew off my son's doctor's recommendation in 1976 to go gluten free. I was angry at the nutritional misinformation. I actually became quite evangelistic about GFD. My family banned me from mentioning wheat in their presence. High dose 10,000 IU Vitamin...

      mental health struggles

      Welcome to the forum, @sadiec123! A couple of questions. First, what is the biggest driver behind your food anger? Is it having to deny yourself foods that you used to enjoy or is it the social cost of needing to eat gluten free? By social cost, I mean do you feel left out or even resented by family/friends at social events or do you avoid social...

      Help plz with results. celiac?

      Even if Gliadin G is excluded from your diagnostic standards, you still have symptoms caused by eating gluten. Perhaps you have Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS). NCGS is diagnosed by first eliminating Celiac Disease as the cause of your symptoms. A Negative diagnosis for Celiac Disease. Then showing symptom improvement while on a trial gluten...

      mental health struggles

      I am 22 and was diagnosed with celiac back in May 2024. It was discovered after a year worth of excruciating pain and I was in the ER 3 times within a two week span from abdominal pain that presented as appendicitis or pancreatic issues. The physical pain and discomfort took months to heal after going gluten-free ( still going) however I feel so mentally...

Also get another 70 mcg from beef liver as well as whatever else from diet. I am not quite certain how much natural folate is safe as opposed to folic acid. Do the above description and amounts sound OK?

      I felt betrayed by the food I was eating,  I was angry at Agrobusiness.  Angry at myself because I blew off my son's doctor's recommendation in 1976 to go gluten free.  I was angry at the nutritional misinformation.  I actually became quite evangelistic about GFD.  My family banned me from mentioning wheat in their presence. High dose 10,000 IU Vitamin D and low dose 5 mg Lithium Orotate kept me grounded. It is not just a gluten free diet.  You also have to correct vitamin and mineral deficiencies.  Pretend like you moved to another country so you have to find new favorite foods.  There are built in deficiencies in the western diet that at times seems intentional.  Vitamin D, Choline, Iodine is deficient in the general diet.  Add in the deficiencies caused by the Celiac Disease malabsorption you suffered with unknowingly and the difficiency caused by avoiding foods.  Don;t forget the deficiencies caused by no longer eating processed gluten foods with their fortifiction.  Gluten free foods on not fortified.  You get what you eat. Oh, anger at the people and doctors who said there was nothing wrong, when I knew there was. From as early as ten years old.  Guess I showed them.  They are getting sicker and I am not.  I invite them to my 130 birthday party. Give yourself a break, you were told lies.  But let the anger turn into productivity. To quote the Grateful Dead: "What a long strange trip it's been" Your weight will stabilize at it's natural level.  I was kick sand in the face skinny as a kid.  150  pounds average through my 20's Then blew up to 185 from my 50's until I started GFD at 63. You have the oppurtunity to avoid what I suffered.  Check out old TV shows like "Ozzy and Harriet", "Leave it to Beaver", "Donna Reed Show".

      I am 22 and was diagnosed with celiac back in May 2024. It was discovered after a year worth of excruciating pain and I was in the ER 3 times within a two week span from abdominal pain that presented as appendicitis or pancreatic issues. The physical pain and discomfort took months to heal after going gluten-free ( still going) however I feel so mentally & emotionally out of touch with everything. I know having other stressors in my life can add to that of course but I lost a lot of weight because I just don't want to eat anymore. I am angry all the time with food and feel physically awful with my diet. Did/does anyone else have this experience? I am really unsure of what to do or how to go about anything even though it's just a gluten-free diet that's supposed to fix it.
