Is SPAM Gluten-Free?

Celiac.com 06/29/2023 - We get a lot of questions from celiac community members wondering if certain products are gluten-free. One question we see a lot is about meat products. Specifically, is SPAM gluten-free and safe for people with celiac disease? 

SPAM contains just six naturally gluten-free ingredients: Pork with ham, Salt, Water, Potato Starch, Sugar, and Sodium Nitrate, so it can be considered safe for those who are gluten sensitive or have celiac disease.
