The Gluten Was "fermented" Out Of The Sauce

Even though there is no strict law in place, you can report their mislabeling to the FDA. Voluntary gluten-free labeling rules specify that if there are wheat-derived ingredients the product must still be below 20ppm gluten.

Here is where you call.

By the way, I found this too. It seems some soy/wheat soy sauces do test below 5 ppm gluten.

And since it's a Canadian Company, it wouldn't hurt to report it to the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.

Whoops! Thanks. Is my US-centric view showing too badly? :P

I also didn't realize that we were talking about Canada. They are definitely offside if that is the case.

Here is the applicable Canadian regulation. It applies to food sold in Canada, but food sold outside Canada may not have to adhere to the rule.

Food and Drug Regulation B.24.018

No person shall label, package, sell or advertise a food in a manner likely to create an impression that it is gluten-free unless the food does not contain wheat, including spelt and kamut, or oats, barley, rye or triticale or any part thereof.

So, no matter what you do to "remove the gluten," by Canadian regulation if it contains anything derived from barley it can not be represented in any way as "gluten-free."

Ugh. Even if I believed them about being gluten free, I wouldn't buy their stuff after that nasty email. There is no need for condescension when someone is merely trying to be sure that what they put in their body is safe.

      I think most of us, when we first got our diagnosis, imagined that going gluten free would be the magic the bullet that would restore us to perfect health. We soon find out that it usually isn't quite that simple and that celiac disease has long fingers.

      Thanks! I still have much to learn, I'd hoped going gluten-free would be a magic bullet and I'm learning my system is still very sensitive which is overwhelming and discouraging at times. Thanks for the yogurt tip! There is comfort in knowing that this is common during early healing and I'm not alone!

      Thanks so much for the response. Are you usually able to pinpoint a trigger when you get the pain again? What I didn’t share in my earlier post is that I also usually eat out on weekends (though I share celiacs/needs to be gluten-free) and I’ve also been under a lot of stress lately in my personal life. While I’m speculating that it’s the wine it could certainly be a number of things. Do you ever notice the pain more when you are stressed? Learning so much about the brain/gut connection and celiacs. Thanks, there is comfort in hearing others have experienced similar symptoms.

      This was my main symptom. I still get it from time to time. Also feels like a burning pain on the upper abdomen. I think the wine could definitely cause the pain to be worse. There are do many things I still can't eat.
    • trents
      Yes and this is true of gluten free ready made, processed and prepackaged foods in general. In particular, hard to digest polysaccharides are commonly used in these products that give many celiacs issues and I personally don't handle some emulsifiers well. IMO, reactions to these ingredients are often mistaken for a gluten reaction.
