I found this link that has tips about how much to use for certain baking applications: http://www.northtexasgig.com/recipes/tips/xanthangum.htm Also I read somewhere that as a subsitute for unflavored Gelatin, you would use 1/2 the amount of Xantham Gum that the recipe calls for. Lastly whenever using any of these food chemicals it seems to me wise to make sure you're not using more than you need to and that is is mixed extremely well. This is a reply for Carol at the top.

Like fiber, gums can't be digested, so they just get thrown out of your body. But there can be a chance of it getting stuck. I'm not sure how often it happens though.

Perhaps you did not dissolve it completely? Perhaps you didnt add enough? Goody2shz: I have been googling but I do not see anywhere about an inhibitor of thickening.
