<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> It seems odd that celiacs are told to avoid distilled grain alcohols such as whiskey, bourbon, and vodka but that we're chided for questioning distilled grain vinegar. And when we do question it, we have nonceliac individuals tell us that, in THEIR opinion, distilled vinegar isn't even worth the effort to test. Is it any wonder that those of us with gluten intolerance have little to go on except for our own body's reactions to various products? Those who are in the know about distillation, please explain it to us. Also explain why distilled grain alcohol still has gluten in it, while distilled grain vinegar does not. I'm not ignorant (I have a Ph.D.), but distilled products and chemistry is not my field.
