Cottage Cheese?

:huh: Hope this isn't a dumb question, but I can't seem to find any info on whether cottage cheese contains gluten. I've switched to a lowfat organic variety made by a local company because it contains fewer chemicals than the national brands, but I'm still not sure. :unsure: If regular cottage cheese does contain gluten, could someone tell me the suspect ingredients?

Thanks!

;)

Here are some gluten-free cottage cheese brands that are gluten-free:

Breakstone Cottage Cheese, regular only

Cabot's (the modified food starch is corn)

Darigold Cottage Cheese

This is all I could find from my list, I hope it helps :)

I don't eat Cottage cheese and have no idea what ingredients are suspicious except for "modified food starch". ;)

Thanks for that...unfortunately, none of those brands are available where I live. :( We have Viva, Meadow Gold, Horizon (the organic kind I'm currently eating) and store brands. I contacted Horizon to ask about this and got no reply. Hmmmm....

I am sorry to hear that :( I looked on my list for those brands you mentioned and they were not there, sorry!

Maybe someone else will come along that eats it and knows of another brand that may be available in your area. :)

Since we are on this topic... anyone know if Light n' Livey cottage cheese is gluten free? It's my favorite and I can't seem to find out.

Thanks!

i dont know where any of you are from--i am in michigan and here i know that prairie farms cottage cheese, michigan cottage cheese, country fresh cottage cheese and kroger brand are all gluten-free--i have eaten them all and they are fine, the one item that upsets me is columbo yogurt--i love it and i cant find it anywhere except in the vending machine in our local hospital--i hate yogurt, but i do like this one brand--usually the only ingredient in cottage cheese that could be a problem is modified food starch and the brands i mentioned have corn starch in them--hope this helps a little--deb :D

Erica, Light'n Lively is a Kraft product and Kraft has an allergen disclosure policy. Any ingredient it uses that is made from a known allergen will be listed after the ingredient in paranthesis. So, I checked my carton and it is gluten-free. :)

      Sorry cut out. Scott! Thanks You are really the master of this things! Thanks! One more question please, i did 2 EGD. In first EGD there was taken 2 samples from duodenum where they found MARSH 3b. In second EGD after 1year (i described in first post of this topic) they have taken multiple Samples from duodenum and jejunum and everything is ok (other than some of the samples is not readable but the explanation is very small and short, villi form good samples is OK and  they only found inflammation in lamina propria. Sorry, I am little overwhelm by this and scared so dr.google almost every-time frightens me. Would my GI and histology expert doctor see if there were like something serious like small bowel cancer or neoplasms(especially in histology)?

      It's quite common for the mucosa to appear normal during an endoscopy in patients with celiac disease, especially in cases of Marsh 3a or 3b histological changes. Studies have shown that the "naked eye" assessment of the small intestine during endoscopy often misses the subtle changes associated with early or less severe villous atrophy. This is why multiple biopsies from different parts of the duodenum, including the bulb, are essential for a reliable diagnosis. Visual clues like scalloping, nodularity, or atrophy may not always be visible, particularly in patients with less advanced disease. In fact, research indicates that histology can reveal significant findings even when the mucosa looks normal on endoscopy, reinforcing the need for biopsy as the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease. For anyone preparing to have an endoscopy, it's important to ensure that your gastroenterologist takes multiple biopsies from various areas to increase the likelihood of an accurate diagnosis.

      Thanks Scott! One more question how many of celiac had normal mucosa on naked eye (i mean endoscopy) but histology was postive like marsh 3 a or b?

      Is it worth it to remove gluten before they potentially do an endoscopy & biopsy? I thought I read it’s best to be eating gluten for 3 months prior to it. So hoping they have a cancellation and call us in sooner.
