Sneaky sources of hidden dairy

If you thought gluten is in everything, you’re right. But here’s the bad news – dairy is, too.

So, if you’re allergic to milk and its by-products, or merely intolerant, it’s wise to read the labels on all processed foods. But while it’s easy enough to determine that commercial rice pudding has milk, you might never suspect that canned tuna or processed chocolate does.

Herewith, a short list of some major sources of hidden dairy:

Artificial butter or butter flavor

Baked goods, including bread

Candy

Caramel color and flavoring

Cereals

Crackers

Dips and salad dressings

Frozen foods

Granola bars

Gravies

Hot dogs

Malt drinks

Margarine

Non-dairy creamer

Pate

Sausages

Seasonings

You probably know it already, but reading labels is a surefire way to avoid consuming foods that cause you harm.
