Ahh, cinnamon. I was caught out by that very thing recently. I am not
saying that it was a gluten containing cinnamon. I found a gluten free
banana bread ( fruit cake kind of thing ) that was so tasty I was having
a couple of slices each evening. The stupid thing was that I checked the
ingredients so carefully for gluten ( even though the label stated GF ),
that I completely forgot that I am also allergic to cinnamon.
 
So, I just thought I would post a reminder that it seems that if a
person is allergic to one thing that there may be a few other obscure
or common foods that can be added to the list.
 
I must add, however, that I am speaking as a person who is classed as
allergic to gliadin and have not been diagnosed as suffering CD.
 
Kind regards to everyone.
I'm learning more each day.
