People with a wheat allergy must avoid any form of wheat. It is usually labelled clearly as 'wheat', or 'wheat flour' but be careful if anything is labelled merely with 'flour', 'modified starch, 'rusk', and 'bread crumbs' as these could contain wheat. All gluten-free products are suitable for the wheat-free diet.

AVOID Biscuits, bread, bread crumbs, buns, cakes, crisp bread, egg noodles, flour - wheat, rye or barley, fried foods - due to flour in batter, gravy, mustard, mustard powder, pasta - white & brown, pastries, rolls, sausages, semolina, soya sauce, starch (modified), most stock cubes, and wheat.

SUITABLE FOODS Arrowroot, barley, barley flour, buckwheat, bulgur wheat, corn, corn flour, cornstarch, maize meal, millet, polenta, potato, potato flour, quinoa, rice, ground rice, rice flour, rice noodles, rye flour, sago, Schwartz herbs and spices and tapioca, and any other gluten-free suggestions. Use freshly ground pepper only, as some ready ground varieties are mixed with wheat flour.

Difficult Diners is a website dedicated to those who eat a restricted diet, literally those who find it difficult to dine anywhere other than home. It is also for parents and carers of difficult diners, as they have to cook for a restricted diet. It includes information on the more common allergies, wheat, dairy, yeast , sugar, and nuts. It also includes sample recipes for diets that are wheat free, dairy free, yeast free, sugar free and nut free. Sample recipes have been taken from Difficult Diners--The Cookbook.
