<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Hi, I am so overwhelmed right now finding out what I can and can't eat. I have just started looking at product lists and foods I was sure I couldn't eat are OK - like Baskin Robbins ice cream!! YEAH! and foods that I thought were OK, I am questioning. My son and I both seemed to react to some pork chops that we made in the house with cumin. Is it possible that some brands of spices use gluten in their anti-compacting agent?? Since companies here are not required to list all packing ingredients, or even all ingredients period, I am concerned about how to know what we can eat or not. Could it be a cross contamination rather than a packing agent issue? Is this a concern in the US as well?? I am going to Texas to shop for food, but do I need to look for GF spices, too? How likely would it be that spices are unsafe? Thanks for all your replies, Emily *Support summarization of posts, reply to the SENDER not the Celiac List*
