Below are some wheat-containing foods, drinks, and sauces that could trigger an allergic response in someone with a wheat allergy:
- Processed meats, like hot dogs or cold cuts;
- Dairy products, like ice cream;
- Licorice and jelly beans;
- Hard candies;
- Pasta;
- Bread and cakes;
- Cookies and muffins;
- Breakfast cereals;
- Couscous;
- Farina, semolina and spelt;
- Soy sauce;
- Beer.
Although allergic reactions typically occur when eating wheat, they can also happen by inhaling wheat flour. Some people with a wheat allergy may also react to other grains like rye or barley due to cross-reactivity between gluten proteins. And nonfood items with wheat-based ingredients, like modeling clay, cosmetics, or bath products can also cause an allergic reaction.
