Mainstream Food List

Where can I find the best list for gluten-free mainstream food? I've been mainly eating the specialty gluten-free foods but I wanna know all the regular stuff I can buy at the grocery store. I don't wanna spend like 3 hours in the store...reading labels...getting confused and having all my perishables melt in the basket. I wanna be prepared next time I go..I always end up putting stuff back on the shelf cuz I'm just not sure unless it actually says GLUTEN FREE....and we all know that stuff is EXPENSIVE!

The following are mainstream brands that will list wheat,rye,barley,oats on the label or will be safe. You don't need to read the label for any questionable ingredients because these brands will not hide anything under anything that is otherwise questionable. So just look for one of those four ingredients

Aunt Nelly’s

Balance

Baskin Robbins

Ben&Jerry

Betty Crocker

Blue Bunny

Breyers

Campbells

Cascadian Farms

Celestial Seasonings

Country Crock

Dove

Edy’s

The link above is the best, but make sure you still read the labels. Ingredients change often and some of the list might not still be accurate. I use it more as a guide to point me in the right direction towards products that are most likely safe. Then I read the labels.

God bless,

In my opinion, the best list on the web for gluten-free foods is the Delphi Forums one, which can be downloaded by following these steps:

1) Go to the website, Open Original Shared Link

2) Click on "messages" or "start reading"

3) Select the folder "gluten-free Product List"

4) Click on the topic called "Downloadable files word"

5) Of the four options, choose the one in the upper right.

You may need to register (the basic version is free) in which case, just register first, then complete the steps above.

The most comprehensive list I have seen is from CSA. It costs about $25 and is worth every penny! call 1-877-csa-4-csa or e-mail celiacs@csaceliacs.org or www.csaceliacs.org

celiac3270 mentioned a good one too, but it is not as easy to use. The list from CSA is organized much better.

How is the CSA list organized? Just for reference of those who don't have the list, here's an example of the Delphi list. The vw in the first ones stands for verified on the website. They have: ve = verified by email, vs = verified by snail-mail, vp = verified by phone call, vw = website includes gluten-free list, vpkg = package states gluten free, vf = fax

Wilderness Pie Fillings (Birdseye) (Open Original Shared Link) (vw=04-01-2003)

All Wilderness and Comstock pie fillings are gluten-free. The modified food starch is cornstarch.

This one includes part of the company statement, as some do:

Farley & Sathers Candy Corn (800-533-0330, ext. 340) (Open Original Shared Link) (ve=10/2004)

Candy Corn is gluten free. However, Candy Corn may be packaged on lines with other products containing gluten. While we do wash lines between packaging runs, cross contamination is still possible. At this time, Farley's & Sathers Candy Company, Inc. does not offer a list of gluten free items. Production processes change too frequently to allow us to provide an accurate and updated list of gluten free items.

Package information is the most current information we can provide our consumers in regards to food allergies and intolerances. Any lists may or may not apply to an item purchased by the consumer, without the date of manufacture or the location of manufacture and packaging.

Many of our items are gluten free. Please check our package labels for wheat indications in the allergy statement. If you are concerned about a specific product, please email the name of the product, package code, and UPC. I am happy to research any item you might have a question on. Thank you for taking the time to contact us with your questions.

And here's another:

Life Savers (Nabisco--Kraft) (800-543-5335) (Open Original Shared Link) (vw=2004)

Read the label. Wheat, oats, rye and barley will be listed on the label of Kraft products that contain these ingredients. They will not be hidden under words such as “natural flavors”, etc. Kraft considers distilled vinegar, no matter the source, gluten-free.

The products are organized by category as follows:

Alcoholic Beverages 2

Baby Food and Products 4

Baked Goods 6

Baking Supplies 7

Beverages 10

Candy 16

Cereal, Breakfast 21

Condiments, Sauces, etc. 22

Convenience Meals 28

Dairy 29

Desserts 33

Fruits and Veggies 38

Health and Beauty Products 40

Household Products 46

Meat 47

Medications Rx and OTC 53

Mexican 60

Potatoes, Rice, Pasta 62

School Products 65

Snack Foods 66

Soups 71

Spices and Flavorings 73

Tomato Products 76

Vitamins and Supplements 77

      Fermentation breaks down some of the gluten in wheat. Nowhere enough for a wheat dough to become gluten free, but the gluten may be significantly reduced. I think some pizzerias make the dough the day before and leave it overnight. The longer the microbes are acting on the flour, the better.

      And the fact is, no two celiacs will necessarily respond the same to gluten exposure. Some are "silent" celiacs and don't experience obvious symptoms. But that doesn't mean no harm is being done to their gut. It just means it is subclinical.

      Thank you, Trents.  I appreciate your helpful and friendly reply. It seems more likely to be a bug.  It has been a pretty severe bought. I feel that I don’t have enough experience to know what signs my little one shows after exposure to gluten.

      Hannah24, be aware that if you are on a gluten free diet, you will invalidate any further testing for celiac disease (except genetics) and would need to go back to eating significant amounts of gluten for weeks or months to qualify for valid testing.

      Hello, @Hannah24 Have you had a DNA test done?  Celiac Disease is genetic.  You must have at least one gene to develop celiac disease.  You don't have to be consuming gluten for a genetic test.   Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can cause false negatives.  Some lucky people are seronegative, but still have celiac disease.  Peripheral neuropathy, tingling in hands and feet are symptoms of vitamin deficiencies.  Vitamin C, Thiamine B1, Niacin B3, Pyridoxine B6, and Cobalamine B12 can each cause peripheral neuropathy.  These same vitamins are needed to produce blood cells.  Most undiagnosed Celiacs suffer from nutritional deficiencies. The DNA test would be helpful.
