Lisa,

It's important to know that the amount of gluten is not necessary the issue with gluten, even a trace can do damage.

The tests can be inconclusive. And, I hear that you say you don't need to be gluten-free.

Still, for others then it's just important to know for those who do want / need to be gluten-free:

Rye, even twice a year can be a huge problem for someone with celiac, actually - and maybe for others, too. The brain can endure damage / changes for up to six months after even one exposure to gluten, even a trace.

For some scope on that, go to PubMed and search: gluten, neurological

It does not matter if there is "less" even a trace matters significantly.

Now, if you are not celiac but gluten sensitive, it's still not something worth risking. Tests don't tell us all we need to know.

And if there is any kind of gut issue or neurological matter at all, it's best to be on the safe side.

CARROWAY SEEDS are a nice way to get a hint of rye, though, without the gluten. You can cook with them . . . and there is a wonderful gluten free cracker by Mary's Gone Crackers that is Carroway and very much resembles the taste of rye.
