Last time I looked the Stagg Steakhouse Reserve, the only Stagg chili sold at Costco, had wheat. Keep hoping Costco would stock a gluten-free Stagg chili, we like them all. They sometimes have Amy's but the whole family greatly prefers Stagg.

Horseless Chili w/o beans is not Gluten Free.

Oatmeal and wheat protein listed on label.

I sent email to Hormel asking to clarify, it is NOT gluten-free.

Wolf brand chili has oats in it. They are not purity protocol, and they are not labeled gluten free. This chili is NOT safe for people with celiac disease!

Wolf brand does not include wheat as an allergen, and as the article mentions their chilis don't contain gluten ingredients and are not labelled "gluten-free." We do list brands here that are labeled "gluten-free" for those who prefer this.

Depends on the particular style of chili. Most of the companies make different styles.

Hormel Chunky Beef Chilli with beans uses "textured vegetable protein" (made from soy flour) and states on the label it is gluten free. The formulation may also vary from country to country.

  Welcome to the forum. You are lucky because in Korean food, many classic meals such as bibimbap without sauce, barbecue meats and some kinds of soups generally do not have gluten. But it is a good idea to confirm with the restaurant workers for safety reasons. Regarding certain locations, I enjoy going to places such as Plant in Seoul and Sprout in Busan...

  Undiagnosed (and thus untreated) celiac disease is associated with a higher chance of miscarriage. The downside of continuing to eat gluten now is increased chance of miscarriage. The downside of stopping gluten now and having to restart later to get a clear, official diagnosis is that you might have worse symptoms eating gluten after being gluten...
