I'm trying to identify the source of a reaction. Does anyone know if Brianna's French Vinaigrette salad dressing is gluten-free? Or does anyone have it nearby and they could tell me the phone number on the package to call for info? (I have it at home, but I'm at work). Thanks!

If you have a problem with rice - that wouldn't be a gluten issue.  I love their dressings and do well with them.  Looking at the ingredients - it looks like they use apple cider vinegar.

rice wine vinegar contains barley, which is not gluten free. this is a very common mistake people make. rice wine vinegar is NOT safe for celiacs.

Which flavor has " rice wine vinegar"? Neither of the two that said " French" contains rice wine vinegar.

Maybe you mean malt vinegar?  The kind you have with Fish and chips?  Malt  vinegar is not gluten free and is based on barley.   It is fermented instead of distilled.  

If it were me, I would probably react to the additive Xanthan Gum.  Just a personal intolerance of mine.  So, I avoid commercially processed dressings.  Hubby can consume them without issue.  

Oh, my cousin got glutened by a salad dressing.  Same flavor and bottle type but different brand.  The new one was not gluten free.  Now she always read the labels, even if she has to put on her reading  glasses to do it in the store!

Rice wine vinegar is completely safe for celiacs.  The only one that is not gluten free is MALT VINEGAR.

rice wine / rice vinegar often do contain barley malt. many online forums are incorrect. always check the ingredients of rice wine vinegar - sometimes safe, often times not.

i have reacted to rice wine vinegar many many times. i eat mostly raw or cook my own food (rarely eat out or anything packaged) so it's very easy for me to pinpoint exactly what causes my reactions.

my bottle of this dressing stated "rice wine vinegar" on the ingredients. i have never purchased this one before, but perhaps they have a new recipe, or this is an old bottle of old recipe. i threw out the bottle already or i would post a photo. 

it was the french vinagraitte with the grapes on the bottle.

It's the tocopherols. I just ate the strawberry label one and my dh is back with a vengeance. I emailed and asked source of tocopherols but haven't heard back yet.

Hmm, I don't see anything about rice wine vinegar in this article you linked?  It seems to be about Balsalmic vinegar (grape vinegar) instead.  I don't think they even make rice wine vinegar in Italy because they probably don't grow rice there?

tocopherols are not a concern for Celiacs.  they are gluten free no matter what the original source.

      Hi Lily Ivy. Thanks for responding. Did you have withdrawal? If so, what was it like and for how long?

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Doris Barnes! You do realize don't you that the "gluten free" label does not mean the same thing as "free of gluten"? According to FDA regulations, using the "gluten free" label simply means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 20 ppm. "Certified Gluten Free" is labeling deployed by an independent testing group known as GFCO which means the product does not contain gluten in excess of 10 ppm. Either concentration of gluten can still cause a reaction in folks who fall into the more sensitive spectrum of the celiac community. 20 ppm is safe for most celiacs. Without knowing how sensitive you are to small amounts of gluten, I cannot speak to whether or not the Hu Kitechen chocolates are safe for you. But it sounds like they have taken sufficient precautions at their factory to ensure that this product will be safe for the large majority of celiacs.

      Can I trust the gluten free label if a product was made in a facility that also processes gluten?

      By Doris Barnes · Posted

      Buying choclate, I recently boght a bar from Hu Kitchen (on your list of recommended candy. It says it is free of gluten. However on the same package in small print it says "please be aware that the product is produced using equipment that also processes nuts, soy, milk and wheat. Allergen cleans are made prior to production". So my question is can I trust that there is no cross contamination.  If the allergy clean is not done carefully it could cause gluten exposure. Does anyone know of a choclate brand that is made at a facility that does not also use wheat, a gluten free facility. Thank you.

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By trents · Posted

      @Manaan2, have you considered the possibility that she might be cross reacting to some food or foods that technically don't contain gluten but whose proteins closely resemble gluten. Chief candidates might be dairy (casein), oats (avenin), soy, corn and eggs. One small study showed that 50% of celiacs react to CMP (Cow's Milk Protein) like they do gluten.

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      I realize I'm super late in the game regarding this topic but in case anyone is still reading/commenting on this one-does anyone who is especially sensitive have their personal observations to share regarding Primal Kitchen brand?  My daughter was diagnosed almost 2 years ago with celiac and within 6 months, her follow up labs were normal and a year later vitamin levels significantly improving, but we are still battling GI symptoms; particularly, constipation, so much that she has been on MiraLax every day since she was 3.  We've managed to get her down to a half cap every other day but without that, she continues to have issues (when she has a known, accidental ingestion unfortunately it takes a lot more MiraLax and additional laxatives to help her).  I was searching for something else and found this and am wondering if anyone has any specific comments regarding Primal Kitchen.  I feel like we are so incredibly careful with diet, logging diet and symptoms to look for patterns (we've had multiple dieticians help with this piece as well), not eating out, contacting companies and of course, there is always room for improvement but I'm running out of ideas regarding where her issues could be coming from.  Even if the Primal Kitchen is contributing, I'm sure it's not the only thing contributing but I can't help but think there must be handful of things that are working together and against her.  The ingredients list distilled white vinegar, but also white wine vinegar and balsamic, then "spices" which I'm always cautious about.  However, after contacting the company, I felt more comfortable allowing her to consume their products but over time I've realized that the front-line customer service support people don't always provide the most accurate of information.  Thanks for reading to anyone that does.
