Hi-

Does anyone know if any spices (like onion or garlic powder) are gluten free?

Thanks!

Diane

I believe all of the pure spices from McCormick's are gluten free, though that might not be true for anything that's a spice blend. Also, everything from Penzeys Spices is gluten free.

check out frontier or simply organic. i'm pretty sure most if not all of their stuff is gluten-free.

I've pretty much found spice blends to be gluten-free unless they list wheat, which is rare. Usually in something more like a dry marinade mix or occasionally something Mexican. Also will sometimes find it at restaurant in one of their special spice blends, such as the vegetable spice at Outback.

I got rid of all of my old spices to be safe.. Now I have Simply Organic, McCormick's (look for their green label and lid!). For Mexican, I use the Old El Paso mixes - Fajita, Taco, etc.

So far, I've never gotten sick from spices, that I know of.. One thing to definitely avoid - anything from the bulk bin, including spices. Bulk bins are a cross contamination nightmere - even if you're getting, say, white rice, someone could have used a glutenous scoop, or the bin could have previously held gluten foods..

The one time I got rice flour out of a bulk bin was when it was sectioned off in its own side of the store, with a note that all the gluten-free ingredients had been kept strictly gluten free.

      For people with celiac disease and corn intolerance from it: Is salt still okay for most people?

      By Ryangf · Posted

      I haven’t had any noticeable reactions to salt so I will continue using it. I think I just freaked out when I realized this but it doesn’t cause me any discomfort- so thanks!

      Abscesses on legs

      By plumbago · Posted

      Ok, thanks. I'm so glad to hear you are in the hands of a dermatologist. I hope he/she has given you 1) a diagnosis; and 2) a plan of care with a couple of options so that you have buy-in and comfort with it. I have some ideas, but not having seen the abscesses or you in person, it doesn't really make sense for me to kind of ... speculate further. But your question was regarding gluten, and you've gotten a couple of other follow up questions and answers that are good, including the idea to keep a food diary. Let us know if we can help further or answer any other questions. I'm sorry you're going through this, it sounds very painful.

      Abscesses on legs

      @plumbago They appear as boils. They are big, like the size of a nickel--quarter, and they hurt when I touch them. I have gone to the same derm for them over and over and she thinks my body is colonized by a bacteria, but even after using hibiclens all over my body they come back.

      Abscesses on legs

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the gluten-free community! It’s great to have you here. While gluten sensitivity or celiac disease can indeed cause skin issues, such as dermatitis herpetiformis (a blistering rash), abscesses in areas like the lower buttocks or thighs are less commonly linked directly to gluten. However, chronic abscesses could be a sign of an underlying immune or inflammatory condition, which might be worth discussing with a healthcare professional. Some people with gluten-related disorders also experience secondary issues like bacterial overgrowth or immune dysregulation, which could potentially contribute to recurrent infections. It’s always a good idea to explore all possible causes, including gluten sensitivity, with your doctor. In the meantime, keeping a food and symptom diary might help identify any patterns. Wishing you the best on your health journey!

      You say you have gluten sensitivity? Have you been officially diagnosed with celiac disease or do you refer to NCGS?
