I know there are tons of list floating around regarding gluten-free and brand name products. However, I know that we all cannot afford brand name products and use store or off brand products. Would it be possible to start a thread or list with store/off brand products that do and DO NOT contain gluten, i.e. Wal-Mart, Target, grocery store brands, etc....? Or is there already a list out there?

*NOTE - for store/off brand medications, mouthwashes, body care products, etc....*

Hmm, this isn't such a bad idea...
Stop and Shop clearly labels gluten. Like, in the allergen atatement it says "Contains: Nuts Eggs Milk Gluten".
Also I am OK with store brand rice cakes that are made in a sep. facility- as opposed to quaker. Plus they're oviously cheaper than the lundgerg

I was diagnosed recently with Dermatitis Herpetiformis and have been eating gluten free for about a week. I've wondered the same thing about food lists. It can be very frustrating. Because I have a large family I usually shop at Walmart or one of the local stores where you have to bring your own bags and put a quarter in to use the shopping cart. I was happy to discover an article on the internet that talked about Walmart including Gluten free in the labeling of it's store brand products (since 2006). I have found this to be true. I bought the Gluten-Free Grocery Shopping Guide offered for sale on this site and that has been helpful as well. Sometimes it's just less hassle to buy the brand you know is safe. Unfortunately, I haven't found a gluten free multi-vitamin. I used to take the Equate (Wal-mart brand) Complete Multi-Vitamin but I don't know if they're gluten-free. The label doesn't say it is but I read something on line that said it was.

Hopefully someone with more experience can shed more light on the subject.

Wegmans uses Allergen keys, so if the product is gluten free there is a little "G" in a circle, usually the circle is orange too.
There lists is also found at Wegmans.com

Walmart's gluten free products will say gluten free below the ingredients. SafeWay also has a gluten free list they will give you if you call them.

I'm not talking about food items. I'm talking about medications, mouthwashes, body care, etc... that are store/off brand names.

We did not know that since you did not specify it in your original post.

I know and it's my fault. I didn't dawn on me until my last post. DOH!

I know Wegmans does not include meds etc in their list.
