I just sent you a comment about the Talenti Double Dark Chocolate gelato possibly containing gluten (via the vermouth I think). <br /><br />This is what I learned about vermouth from Wikipedia: Spirits made without any grain such as brandy, wine, mead, cider, sherry, port, rum, tequila and vermouth generally do not contain gluten, although some vineyards use a flour paste to caulk the oak barrels in which wine is aged,[32] and other vineyards use gluten as a clarifying agent (though it's unclear whether gluten remains at the end of the clarification process). Therefore, some coeliacs may wish to exercise caution. Liqueurs and pre-mixed drinks should be examined carefully for gluten-derived ingredients.<br /><br />I have e-mailed Talenti with my concern and am awaiting their response.

I had some (OK I downed the whole pint too) while out shopping and it was beyond delicious, but within 6 hours of eating it I began to have symptoms of gluten intolerance. I noticed one of the ingredients is listed as vermouth and from googling it online found it is likely to be derived from wheat (i.e., not gluten-free).<br /><br />One thing I've learned is that different people have different thresholds for the amount of gluten they may be able to tolerate before having symptoms. Also it's possible the Talenti company doesn't understand that just because "gluten" or wheat is not listed in the ingredients does not mean the product is gluten free.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
