Hidden Sources of Gluten
Gluten is often added to foods as a stabilizer, thickener, and keeping it from falling apart.

Here are some possible hidden sources of Gluten to look out for:
Ice cream (mainly with regard to the flavour such as cookie dough, kit Kat etc.)
frozen yoghurt
brewers yeast
dressings
mayonnaise
canned soups
soy sauce
ketchup
condiments in general
toothpaste
cereal
pudding
French fries and Potato chips (as a non stick cooking coating)
Wheat starch
shampoo/conditioner (gluten is used as a thickener)
malt, barley malt, malt syrup, malt extract, or malt flavoring
triticale

triticum vulgare
hordeum vulgare

Many other foods prepared or processed outside of the home may also come into contact with gluten products resulting in a cross-contamination.
