Gluten Free Vanilla


A lot of recipes call for "gluten free" vanilla and this often confused me when I first started being gluten free. How could vanilla have gluten in it? My understanding is that all pure vanilla is gluten free. The imitation vanillas contain caramel coloring which may contain gluten so they are a no no, unless you know for sure that the caramel coloring is from a US source (caramel coloring made in the US does not have gluten in it).  We always stick with the pure stuff just to be safe, plus it tastes better and isn't artificial. We buy this one at Costco. It is even labeled gluten free, which always makes me love things just a little bit more:)
