  1. Celiac.com 09/19/2020 - With their red flesh and their deep connection to summer, tomatoes and watermelon are like brothers from another mother. Firm, sweet and juicy at their peak of ripeness, all you need to make them sing together,...
  2. Believe it or not Snyder's makes some excellent gluten-free pretzels, but even so, it is more or less processed junk food that you would do best learning to avoid.
  3. Since the company is based in Eugene, Oregon it's highly doubtful that they would pay to import the ingredient from Europe, as it would be many times more expensive. It is more likely that the maltodextrin is USA made from corn, but to be 100% sure why not call them? Let us know what you find out. Also, in Europe maltodextrin is made from "maize, wheat...
  4. If you have been diagnosed with dermatitis herpetiformis, maintaining a 100% gluten-free diet is crucial to stopping the DH flares. Even tiny amounts of accidental gluten exposure, for example if you eat outside your home, could trigger a flare that could last for weeks. As far as the mole goes, it's always a good idea to have them looked at regularly...
  5. Celiac.com 09/17/2020 - A recent "Advisory" issued on August 29, 2020 by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA), followed by a product recall, has brought up an interesting question: Which food safety system works better, the USA's...
  6. Celiac.com 09/16/2020 (Updated 03/15/2021) - M&M's candies do not advertise or label their products as gluten-free. However, with a few exceptions, their candies are gluten-free and safe for people with celiac disease. This list is...
  7. Unfortunately malt flavor, which is normally made from barley, is on our forbidden list because it isn't gluten-free: However, Kellogg's used to make a gluten-free version of that cereal, but I'm not sure if they still do. There are also other companies that make spin offs of it that may be gluten-free, but be sure to check carefully.
  8. Celiac.com 09/15/2020 - A restaurant owner in the UK is catching heat for mocking a celiac customer for her gluten-free food request, and then going on Tripadvisor to call her "selfish," and "spoiled," and sarcastically apologizing for...
  9. Actually almost no blue cheeses are made using the original method of using moldy bread as a culture (maybe none). This was not reliable in terms of the outcome. Now possibly all cheese makers use cultures they grow in a lab, instead of relying on old moldy bread from a cave. Over the 25 years this site's been online we've never heard of any major companies...
  10. My guess would be that he has a sensitivity to corn or legumes, because Barilla uses pea protein, but it is indeed gluten-free. My family uses Barilla exclusively, and we've never had issues.
  11. Even when they are on a gluten-free diet. This is an interesting article that we'll summarize soon: https://www.healio.com/news/gastroenterology/20200911/celiac-linked-with-increased-ibs-functional-constipation-risk
  12. Celiac.com 09/14/2020 - Researchers understand that celiac disease is marked by robust B cell and antibody responses to gluten, and to the transglutaminase 2 (TG2) autoantigen. In contrast, non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) is marked...
  13. I have no doubt that certain vitamin deficiencies can trigger long-term illness, and perhaps even autoimmune diseases. We’ll continue to publish any research that demonstrates this.
  14. Celiac.com 09/11/2020 - If you're looking for a rich, creamy dessert that is also refreshing, and lower in calories, then look no further than shirkhand, a luscious, nutritious and probiotic delight. Commonly found in the Indian state...
  15. It typically looks like tiny blisters that are clear (not white), and they are very itchy. They definitely come to a head, similar to acne, but are clear.
  16. Yes, and this is great news in many respects. We'll be doing a summary soon, but it's now accepted that gluten sensitivity exists...for a long time it's existence has been considered speculative by the medical community. Now it appears that they will soon be able to screen for it, which may help finally answer questions for the ~12% people who have it, but...
  17. See this post: "While "natural flavors" can contain gluten, they very rarely actually do. The most likely source would be barley malt, and that is a relatively expensive ingredient, so it is usually explicitly declared as "malt flavor."
  18. It looks like broccoli can vary "Broccoli varied from 0.3 to 13 mg/100 g", which is considered low in oxalate: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0085253815469157#:~:text=Oxalate content of various foods,to 524 mg%2F100 g.
