This article is for those who are beginning or considered a gluten-free lifestyle. I suggest printing this off and keeping it in your wallet for the next time you go shopping.
Gluten finds itself in the following grains: wheat, barley, rye, triticale.
Common derivatives of those grains are:
BARLEY: barley, malt, malt syrup, malt vinegar
WHEAT: all-purpose flour; besan flour; bran; bread crumbs; bread flour; bulgur; cake and pastry flour; cracked wheat flour; durum; enriched flour; farina; farro; fu (wheat gluten); gluten flour; graham flour; hard flour; kamut, phosphated flour; pizza '00' flour; self-rising flour; semolina; spelt flour; triticale; triticum; wheat flour; wheat germ; white flour; whole wheat flour RYE: beer, rye flour, whiskey, and some vodkas, triticale OTHER COMMON HIDING PLACES FOR WHEAT: baking powder; hydrolyzed vegetable protein (hvp), monosodium glutamate, non-certified oats, spices, powdered seasonings, sauce mixes (including some everyday condiments), soy sauce, prepared soup, bulk bins. *Note: all the items in this list do not inherently contain wheat/gluten but often do. AND NOW THAT YOU’RE WARNED, HERE'S WHAT TO BUY.
Grains to avoid
