I finally got an email back from Aldi about the labeling on some of the products I either have purchased or have been interested in purchasing, but did not know if they were safe. Anyone else find it odd that mayonnaise is not safe?

Never heard of a mayo that's not gluten-free. I wonder what the ingredients are.

I do not find it odd. It says 'fit and active' which makes me think they are cutting out the fat so they have to replace it with something.

I use their regular mayonnaise with no problems. I don't buy any product that is low fat. First of all our bodies need healthy dietary fat for our muscles like our heart and for brain power. Secondly, as the PP pointed out when fat is reduced, it's usually replaced with sugar and/or gluten. I do not need either one of those!

There is some old info. out there that vinegar is not gluten-free, maybe they are going by that. There are also some mayos from oversees that contain malt vinegar.

The info on this thread is 2 years old which can make it ancient history in grocery store time! Re- check for the most current info & always check the ingredients. You never know when some food company will think it's a swell idea to add gluten.

      As a parent myself, I find we feel these things very keenly, it is completely understandable that you feel the way you do. It won't always be easy for your son, of course, but honestly most of the coeliacs I know are very healthy individuals who enjoy life to the full and have adapted very well.  Family support is a massive factor in this, and your son has a wonderfully supportive family which will give him the best start possible.  He is very fortunate to have such an understanding mum.   On the response to gluten question you posed earlier - yes, many people when they come off gluten completely, after a while when they are exposed to gluten by accident or intentionally they react much more strongly than before, compared to when gluten was regularly being ingested.  I read once that once stop eating gluten completely, it is a bit like your system is fully rested, like a resting army, so when gluten does appear your body it goes all out to deal with the "enemy", throwing everything it can at it.   I am sure someone more scientific can better explain this to you.  But that said, I do have a friend who was diagnosed with coeliac disease just a few weeks before me, is strict with her diet, and she NEVER reacts physically to gluten, bizarrely.  It does happen! As regards blood tests which your son will no doubt be offered, these are to check for compliance to the gluten free diet as well as to check no other health issues are arising.  But on that first point, the blood test is unlikely to pick up one or two glutening experiences that happen in a year,  it tends to be more helpful to show if there is regular cross-contamination or ingestion of gluten.   When I was unintentionally taking an iron supplement that had gluten in it, it was a blood test that drew my attention to the fact that something was going wrong with my diet.

      Well, we have an appointment with a pediatrician who specializes in gastrointestinal issues, and subsequently an appointment with a nutritionist on December 6d. So till then it will be google for the win I guess... I have already found a lot of reassuring alternatives for most of his favorite things, which puts my mind at ease. Now we're just having to see how we will navigate the skitrip in march in an all-in hotel and food on the slopes. And how we will manage offering him warm meals daily as he used to eat at school as we can't manage to cook in time before his soccer practice starts as our commute doesn't allow for it... That kind of thing. But we will manage in the end.   I do feel a lot of sadness for him though. He's so small, will never remember the time before the diagnosis when he didn't have to see (some) food(s) as the enemy and even thought that is comforting in a way, it also is quite sad as a notion... I know we now have the opportunity to help him in the best way and help his health, I do. But I also grieve. I can't help it.

      I’m having a terrible time with my employer on this, they put me in an office next to where everyone places food for the department and have reactions when foods containing gluten are present. I’m extreme celiac and have a reaction in some bakery isles at the grocery store. Airborne gluten reactions are real in my world.

      Thank you for the update.  At least now you know what you are dealing with.  Is the system similar to that in the UK in that you will have a follow-up with the gastroenterologist where you can ask any questions you have, and also a referral to a nutritionist?

      We just had his diagnosis confirmed. The biopsy showed Marsch 3B.
