Gluten-Free Products
Some people have an acute sensitivity to gluten, a
protein present in wheat and some other grains.
Because
distilled white vinegar is made from grain based alcohol, there are
varying schools of thought on whether gluten-sensitive individuals
should use products containing this ingredient.
Although the
vinegar used by Watkins is, to the best of our knowledge,
gluten-free, it is our position that this choice is up to the
individual and his/her health care provider. A separate list of
products containing vinegar is found after this Gluten-Free list.
The products listed below do not contain distilled white
vinegar, and are, to the best of our knowledge, free of gluten
and/or gluten derivatives:

Monosodium Glutamate
(MSG)
Some people have experienced unpleasant symptoms after
consuming foods with MSG. This is thought to affect about 2% of the
population (fewer than the percentage who have allergic reactions to
other foods).
Watkins adds no
MSG to any of its products; however, MSG does
occur naturally in a wide variety of foods, such as Parmesan cheese,
mushrooms and tomatoes, and is present in flavoring agents such as
hydrolyzed proteins and autolyzed yeast extracts.
In the
case of hydrolyzed protein products (such as in our Soup Bases and
Barbecue Sauces), the glutamate that is present is the same as that
found in fruits, vegetables, meats and grains.
Also,
an 8-ounce serving of broiled chicken breast contains 15 times more
free glutamate—alleged to be the cause of “Chinese Restaurant
Syndrome”— than an 8-ounce serving of processed food containing HVP
(hydrolyzed vegetable protein). |
