no because my friend who has a gluten allergy can eat potatoes.
No, it comes naturally in things like potatoes, rice, maize, cassava and wheat.
It depends some food starch is gluten free and some isn't
it may, depending on what starch is used
No. There is corn starch, potato starch, rice starch...
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. :)
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.
they hand out candy at school, and i have a wheat allergie, and the starbursts they had did have wheat and gluten in them ( mofied food starch )
No, this actual has modified food starch which is not gluten free. Sodas that are clear like sprite are usually safe.

When a food label reads "modified food starch", they are telling you that there is some kind of starch in the product. It could be wheat starch, corn starch, tapioca starch, rice starch, etc. What you should do if you see modified food starch is call the 800 number on the pack of the product and specifically ask them what kind of starch is in that product. In North America, modified food starch is safe for celiacs. In other countries, you must contact to find out which starch it is from.
I believe tapioca starch.
Maybe, there may be modified food starch in them. Check the ingredients.
Nope, this is from a tapioca plant which is gluten free.
