Re: bleu cheese is a no no!

Do some research on this and see what the latest advice is (look for articles dated 2006). This has been discussed here before, if you want to check the archives.fran knits wrote: bleu cheese is fermented by bread. http://www.celiac.com/st_prodhtml?p_prodid=185 & p_catid=12 & sid=91hH9H1Uv0KqEE@-58106333209.60

I didn’t know bleu cheese was out! I don’t eat

it much but do and can’t recall ever having a problem. Oh well –

another thing to cut out.

Just supposin' the original poster's restaurant blue cheese was

safe....

Who can think of other gluten goblins in that meal?

I thunk steak marinade, seasoning, potato rub, potato toppings,

steak grilling method....

Are there any more?

Of course, if one is dining with short people, one has to be

wary of stray gluten globs of varying sizes. They come in

short-people kisses too.

She had the blue cheese salad, steak, and baked potato.

Didn't mention the beverage.

I suppose if she had a beer, we wouldn't be talking about

blue cheese. (If she did mention a beverage, I missed that part.)

Personally, I don't bother eating blue cheese but I don't miss

it much either.

Blue cheese is for the most part fermented with chemicals. This is a

minimal amount of gluten in blue cheeses made today. The amount of

gluten is in the few part per million amount.

I spoke to a " cheesologist " who said this to me. Yes, a cheesologist

who specializes in the making and production of cheese!

I'd check on your usual blue cheese before you cut it out.  I ate some the other day and was fine.  Not all contain gluten, but to avoid dragging this out like the other poster suggested, I'd check the archives for the last discussion on this.

I believe Boar's Head blue cheese is gluten free, if you can find it and... oh there is another brand at our local Stop and Shop... their website clearly states it is gluten free.... I recognize the package when I'm there so when I go there in the next day or so I'll check it and out and post the name.

Interesting, I've never had trouble with blue cheese. I though this was like avoiding vinegar, as most of the time there is no problem with it.

When you get glutened from someplace other than your own kitchen, you run the risk of never knowing!  I guess that's why eating out is such an " adventure " for us!?!?

I'm not sure how positive the original poster is that she was glutened, but there's always the chance that it was something else!?!?!?

How can you tell if the blue cheese dressing is gluten free or not. Is

there a certain brand to use? The Outback serves one that is gluten-free,

but we would like to have one to use at home. Any help would be

appreciated as my husband's favorite dressing is Blue Cheese and I am afraid

to buy any of the bottled brands. Any suggestions?

This dressing, at Outback, is no longer gluten free!

I can confirm this. My waitress checked salad dressings over half a year

ago and, yes, bleu cheese and one other (can't remember which one, which

is why she checked actually) contain gluten.

They have an updated menu, I believe that it is stated

on that. The waitress at our local also informed me

of this change, it actually has not been gf for quite

some time. I really liked it too from Iowa
