Best Answer

Yes, I do believe so, I came here looking for this answer myself and after a bit more research I discovered this link:

http:/www.coeliac.com.au/gluten-free-diet-information.html

it states on there that maize is gluten free.

Maize, i.e. corn, is gluten free, but maize flour, i.e. corn flour or corn meal might not be. Wheat flour is commonly added to corn flour and corn meal to enhance its binding quality for baking. Be sure to check the package to ensure that it says "Gluten-free." If it does not say that, check the ingredients to see if any wheat or wheat by-products have been added.

Is chicklets gluten free?

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. :)

Are Kraft food 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.


Is thickener 1442 gluten free?

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.


Is meadow gold buttermilk 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.
