Johnny's Seasoning's


GRUMP 1

I use to use Johnny's before I got sick. But then stopped using it because the big container we had of Johnny's Seasoning Salt said it had flour in it. But the little ones did not say it. Same stuff different size. So we were over at a friends house a couple nights ago. They had fixed a lamp roast and used Johnny's Seasoning on it. I did not eat it because of the wheat that I thought was in it. But when she checked her container there was nothing on it about wheat. So I wrote to the company and asked them to send me a list of their stuff that was gluten free. This is the reply I got back from them.

Thank you for taking the time to contact Johnny's Fine Foods.

I use to love that stuff. Haven't had any in years, way before gluten-free. I mainly use Toni Chachere's cajun or Zatarain's creole seasonings now.

Lately, even though things have said gluten-free, or companies say that they don't put gluten in their items, I have still gotten sick and realized that it was from cross contamination. Be careful... although there may not be gluten in the seasoning, who's to say that it didn't get processed by equipment that makes seasoning that does have gluten. I know that seasoning, I havent used it in a while but it's so good!!!

Here is a copy of a p.m. I got today for some one from Johnny's.

Hello Grump:

How are you doing today? Fine, I hope. My name is Shavonne. I am a representative of Johnny's Fine Foods. We were thrilled to see your posting a message about our gluten-free products. I am writing to clarify some information.

Johnny's Fine Foods manufactures two version of Seasoning Salt:

Johnny's (original) Seasoning Salt

Sizes: 4.75 oz, 8.5 oz, 16 oz, 32 oz, and 5lb

Johnny's Seasoning Salt (no added MSG)

Sizes: 8.5 oz, 42 oz, and 5lb

Our orignal Johnny's Seasoning Salt does not contain gluten.

Our Johnny's Seasoning Salt no added MSG does contain gluten

I hope this additional information is helpful to you.

So I am guessing that if you get the original you will get gluten fee. But then he does not say any thing about CC either. So I am still not sure about using this product yet. Will have to do some more research.

      It wasnt really eye catching, but they were small stains which looked like dried out liquid. I dont know if it was normal or shouldve been just completely clean. But if someone didnt pay attention, it wouldnt be noticeable.

      If there were stains or particles on a drink can in an area that would either contact the drink or my lips, I would wash that can whether or not I had celiac disease.

      You are on the money, but I should also add that Italian, French and other countries research shows exactly what I have said. Our FDA is behind the ball when it comes to this research and I am hopeful that Kennedy can straighten this out soon, albeit he is giving the food companies too long to just remove food dyes from our foods when in fact they have to remove all that in order to sell for example, in the UK as they aren't allowed such things. The food companies and the cola companies have also changed their formulas to have just sugar in them instead of corn gluten aka high fructose corn syrup and corn starch in them. Misinformation here in America is a very dangerous thing. I also have been grain free for a long time now and at no time can I even have the smallest amount of corn gluten -I recently got glutened from a supplement that claimed to be grain free yet upon further research I found that it had erythritol (corn sugar) in it and that is what got me sick for 7 days straight. I am not hopeful to ever be able to add back into my diet any of the grain glutens, but perhaps those who were only gluten intolerant might be able to, but for me being celiac, I have no hope in that. Thank you for the article, I will add it to my collection of research as I am collecting everything I can find on this subject and posting it on X as well as other places.  I also don't use psuedo grains i.e. quinoa as that also reacts negatively with my gut, so I am 100% a cassava/tapioca/arrow root girl and that is my go to bread replacement. There are some new items made with chicpea/green peas that are sold as rice alternatives, i bought one to try but haven't yet. So food companies are getting creative, but like you said, I am fresh whole foods and don't buy many processed foods, I make my own cheese, ketchup, pickles, jams, etc.

      There were small spots (stains) on the drinking area at the top of the energy drinks can from the store that looked as the same color as milk — maybe oat milk (Hafermilch) or a wheat-based drink (Weizendrink), but I’m not sure what it was. There were also some particles that looked like either flour or dust, but not many. Could it have been a gluten-containing drink spilled onto the can or just regular small stains which I shouldn‘t worry about? Do you watch out for stuff like that or am I overthinking? Would it cause damage to a celiac?

      This is such an important discussion! While corn gluten (zein) is structurally different from wheat gluten, emerging research suggests some celiac and gluten-sensitive individuals may still react to it, whether due to cross-reactivity, inflammation, or other factors. For those with non-responsive celiac disease or ongoing symptoms, eliminating corn—especially processed derivatives like corn syrup—might be worth exploring under medical guidance. That said, corn’s broader health impact (GMOs, digestibility, nutritional profile) is a separate but valid concern. Like you mentioned, ‘gluten-free’ doesn’t automatically mean ‘healthy,’ and whole, unprocessed foods are often the safest bet. For those sensitive to corn, alternatives like quinoa, rice, or nutrient-dense starches (e.g., sweet potatoes) can help fill the gap. Always fascinating (and frustrating) how individualized this journey is—thanks for highlighting these nuances! 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.
