What is modified food starch made from?
MFS can be any food starch, such as potato, corn, wheat or any other starch. It is modified by treating with acid to produce different cooking properties. One common example is instant pudding. The starch has been modified to thicken without the addition of heat.
There is no requirement that the source of the starch be specified on the label, but the manufacturer may be able to identify it if required. Since the manufacturer purchases MFS from milling companies like Con-Agra and ADM in large sacks, they may not know what the MFS actually contains.

This need stems not from the wheat or the gluten, but from other ingredients which may have either kosher or non-kosher sources.

A Book written by Janice Vickerstaff Joneja, PhD, RD called Dealing With Food Allergies: A Practical Guide to Detecting Culprit Foods and Eating a Healthy, Enjoyable Diet, provides charts with foods allowed and foods restricted. Comparing her very easy to read charts for gluten, disaccharide and dairy you would be able to come up with a list of foods allowed and foods restricted.
