Just before Christmas I posted an inquiry regarding the gluten-free
status of Kahlua, one of the two beverages I miss the most. I received
several replies, most of which were of the "me, too" variety --
indicating to me that the good folks at Kahlua are only hurting
themselves by remaining so tight-lipped about such a well-liked product.
The remaining responses contradicted each other, some being certain
that Kahlua is okay while others were equally certain that it isn't. I
bought a bottle and enjoyed White Russians 3 days in a row. I felt
great until after the third day I got one of those severe pounding
headaches that I get sometimes. Whether the headaches are related to
accidental gluten ingestion or not, I don't know. Unfortunately, I have
none of the more standard symptoms, and the headaches may or may not be,
so my voluntary stint as a test subject has been a failure. So let's
just keep bugging the Kahlua people until they respond.
(Any insights as to whether the headaches might be a symptom of gluten
will be appreciated.)
