My wife discovered a long time ago that her gluten sensitivity was triggered by most brands of roasted nuts.
Here's a web page explaining why. Basically, two common processing methods try to increase salt adherence by applying a coating of wheat gluten or two coats of both wheat gluten and gelatin.
Of course, the equipment is not thoroughly cleaned before nuts not destined for salting are processed.
I wonder how many brands of roasted nuts are not vegetarian (because of gelatin)?
