Twice now I've gotten gluten_type symptoms after eating sausage. Each time there was something else in the meal that COULD have been the culprit. The first time was at a restaurant, when I had sausages, the kind that come in casings, corn, green beans, and a salad with salad dressing. The two things I suspected were the sausages, and the salad dressing. The salad dressing was actually more like a shrimp cocktail type sauce, sort of ketchupey with horseradish in it.
The second time was yesterday, when all day I ate on a dish I made of rice and sausage. The sausage was from a pig my son had processed locally, so there were no ingredients listed on the package. I wondered if wheat might have been used in the herbs and spices added to the pork. But I also ate chocolate mints, which I don't think would have had flour. The diarrhea could have come from the mints, since I can't eat too many sweets, but I don't think the gas and bloating would have been from the candy.
Hence the question: In your experience, can sausage contain wheat?
