Hello! I just started a gluten-free diet and I'm a BIG fan of brie cheese. I can't get enough of it. Does anyone know if there's any reason why it might contain gluten? Or does anyone know of any definitely gluten-free brands?
Thanks!

Not sure about Brie but I can tell you what it states in my CSA Gluten-Free product book.
Trader Joe's: Cheese blocks & wedges (doesn't list specific types)
Lifetime Rice cheese, shredded 3 cheese blend, soy cheese, tofurella cheese
pretty much all the other cheese brands are those of american, mozzarella, parmesan, cheddar, colby
I know blue cheese is not!!!

I've never found a brie that wasn't gluten-free.
It's also not true that all blue cheese has gluten. Most blue cheese made in the U.S. is started on an artificial medium, not bread. Boar's Head blue cheese is gluten-free. The cheese used in Outback's blue cheese dressing is gluten-free. Kraft and Marie's blue cheese dressings are gluten-free (or were last time I checked). I'm sure there are other brands that are gluten-free.

Thanks for the replies! Richard, hearing that you've never found a brie that wasn't gluten-free makes me want to do cartwheels!
