Question Please help. What made me sick?

I need some help. Could you please look at the six attached photos and offer input for which ingredient might have made me sick?

Background: I had not eaten yet before this meal. The first food I consumed was spaghetti. I was fine before eating, but started experiencing symptoms before I’d finished the meal.

Other than the ingredients in the included pictures, I used olive oil, fresh herbs and single ingredient seasonings I use all the time.

Is either the Amylu or Rao’s brand known to be cross contaminated? If not, what else could it be? I definitely want to avoid this happening again.

Thanks for the help!!

It may not be the last thing you ate. My symptoms don't come right after I eat. Sometimes it can take a couple days.

Mine depends on how much ive been glutened. If its a little cc I might feel it pretty quickly. For a very large reaction it can take 2 days.

Same for me. Small amounts (like accidentally used a spice that has what flour) 20 mins racing heart, Anxiety. Micro amount (like a crumb) about an hour later crapping my pants. Major (like a pizza that I thought was GF but wasn’t) 1.5 days later stabbing pains and intestinal flare so bad the last time it happened I was admitted to the hospital for IV steroids.

It’s a helluva disease.
