Want this question answered?
No. There is corn starch, potato starch, rice starch...
yes
Yes
I believe tapioca starch.
no because my friend who has a gluten allergy can eat potatoes.
I believe that Chicklets Fruit Flavored Gum is not Gluten Free, because of its Modified Food Starch. When The Ingredients Label lists Modified Corn Starch, that is okay. Or even Modified Food Starch (Corn), is fine. But plain old Modified Food Starch is the thing to avoid if Gluten Intolerant. :)
Thickeners in the 1400 -- 1450 range are made from starch and therefore may be derived from wheat. If wheat derived, thickeners contain very small levels of detectable gluten, and so are considered not gluten free. If derived from maize, potato, tapioca or rice then they are gluten free. Thickeners may also be called modified starch or dextrins (thickener 1400). If the source of the thickener is wheat (or another gluten-containing grain), then it should be avoided on a gluten free diet.
Nope, this is from a tapioca plant which is gluten free.
Yes, it is. I had the same question. I was concerned about the "modified food starch" that is in the list of ingredients. This is basically hidden gluten, unless it specifies that it is modified corn or potato starch. I googled it and all of the sites say it is gluten free.
Gluten is found in grains. Cottage cheese is made from milk and has no grains in it so, yes, cottage cheese is gluten free.
It CAN be gluten free and it SHOULD be gluten free, but some dairies add modified food starch to their packaging. This can also be found listed as food starch-modified. If this is on the buttermilk packaging and there is no certification of the item being gluten free, it is NOT gluten free.
Flour and water, or you can use corn starch and water. If gluten free just use a gluten free flour alternative.
