What brands of soups are gluten free? I know there are brands in the specialty stores but what about Campbells, Healthy Choice, etc. I get my husband the Chunky Chicken Broccoli Cheese soup from Campbells but I don't know of any others. I'm sure he could go for something different as far as soup is concerned.

Amys, Shelton's, and Thai Kitchen all have soups that are gluten free and say it on the can/package.

I don't think I can get those at Kroger or Walmart. I was hoping to find some everyday brands. Am I out of luck?

Where in the US are you??

swittenauer Enthusiast

Kentucky. We do have a Whole Foods Market but we are just trying to simplify & saw on here that someone said some of Campbells Soups are gluten free. I was wondering what types they were & what other regular brands we could find at our regular local grocery stores.

Swittenauer....

I shop at a Kroger in Virginia Beach, Virginia, as well as where I just moved from, Auburn, Alabama. The Krogers in both places carry Amy's soups on their "special foods" isle. If they don't carry them now, they might be able to order them since their company as a whole already carries them. I like their chili a lot! I also got their frozen, gluten-free meals from Kroger. I found Kroger to be really helpful.

Good luck! I miss soups, too! After Thanksgiving, I'm going to make a big batch of turkey soup and freeze it in individual servings. YUM!

I've looked and I couldn't find one gluten-free Campbell's soup, but I think some Progresso soups are gluten-free.

I get a brand of soup called Tabatchnick. They sell it at regular food stores. Its in the frozen foods section in a box. It comes with 2 packages that you can cook in a mircowave or on the stove top. Not all of them are gluten-free but alot are.

I got some info online that says Campbells Chicken and rice is gluten-free, I've been getting that. That is a Canadian site, might be different formulation in the US.

swittenauer Enthusiast

I think that is what I have heard....it probably was from a member from Canada. I'll just stick with the Chicken Cheese Broccoli soup for now. The store where we shop has the gluten free broth but no soups.

I got my husband several of the Progresso soups. They list all allergens right under the ingredients. Its very easy to read the labels which is nice if you have several food intolerances.

Shelton has some good gluten-free soups--love the chicken tortilla. They say gluten-free accordingly too. Fantastic Foods has one or two gluten-free instant soup in a container deal...like Five Bean. They're pretty tasty.

Guest nini

it may very well be, that's just the way they had it on the list... weird huh? anyway, the disclaimer was that not all of their gluten free products are on the list, this is just to get you started!

swittenauer Enthusiast

Thanks! I knew there was a list from campbells. I didn't have enough patience for it to arrive in the mail. I don't think he'll go for the lentil soup though. Good to know about the pasta sauces too. We usually stick to Newmans Own Pasta Sauces.

canadia Newbie

If you're in Canada, some of the President's Choice soups at Superstore are gluten-free. I found a black bean, a lentil, and even a Cream of Mushroom.

I just looked at the Campbell's website and Pace is one of their companies. I thought pace salsa was gluten-free, but it isn't on this list. Any ideas?

Guhlia Rising Star

They may not put it on their gluten-free list because of vinegar??? Just a thought...

As far as soups go, Progresso is definitely the easiest to find gluten free ones. I eat lots of Progresso soups without a problem. I used to stick with the Campbells Chunky chicken brocolli and cheese, but I switched to the Progresso brand since there are so many more selections and their customer service people were VERY helpful on the phone. I generally try to support the companies that will list gluten containing ingrediants.

Do you eat the chicken and wild rice

It is so easy to make home made soups. If any one wants some help doing that, just let me know. Mine are easy - anyone can cook them. You just need to have taste buds.

Here is a link to Progresso Soups, this website shows the ingredients for each soup. There are a few good ones, that are gluten free.

I recently called Campbells about their new line that comes in the Gold Box. I think it might be Gold Label soups? Anyways...they said that all of those were gluten free EXCEPT the one. They even have a tomato version that is gluten free. I was pretty unbelieving the first time, so I called back and got a different person and they said the same thing.

I also had called Pace and was told that their salsa (mild version is what I called about) is gluten free. that is the salsa that we use.

I eat Healthy Choice, chicken and rice, the one in the little green microwavable containter. Tastes great!!!! Very quick for lunch at work too.

I just tried a delicious Tomato with Roasted Garlic Soup from Pacific Foods. It tastes just like Campbells Tomato soup. I found it at my local Stop & Shop in the healthy food isle.

I just found out personally that the Healthy Choice soups are not Gluten Free. I read in another forum that these soups from Healthy Choice were Gluten free:

  • Split Pea
  • Bean with Bacon
  • Chicken with Rice
  • Country Vegetable

I bought Chicken with Rice and Country Vegetable. Within minutes of eating both soup (I spilled most the first one coming out of the microwave so made both), I was sick :( . It's been two days and I am still not all the way back to normal. I wrote the company and this was their response:

"Unfortunately, we are not able to guarantee that our products ingredients are gluten-free, since the source of an ingredient may change from time to time. We understand how difficult it can be finding foods that meet the requirements of a restricted diet, and we continue to look for ways to meet the dietary needs of our consumers.

Please be aware that although ConAgra Foods cannot certify products to be gluten-free, we can assist you by affirming that a product has been formulated without commonly known gluten containing ingredients. The flour used in our products is often wheat flour and should be avoided by individuals with gluten sensitivities. Some fermented or distilled products, such as vinegar, may be derived from wheat. We suggest you speak with your physician to determine if you need to avoid distilled products derived from wheat, rye, barley, or oats. We always advise consumers who may have sensitivities to recheck the ingredient list on each package. Products are oftentimes reformulated and the ingredients may change. If Natural Flavors, Artificial Flavors, or Spices listed in the ingredients list contain wheat, oat, barley, or rye, these ingredients would be listed in parenthesis immediately following the ingredient."

It's good to know ... I don't think we should eat soup unless it clearly states it is gluten free.. .or we make it ourselves.

      I read gluten-free oatmeal Avenin can cause gluten like symptoms. I read Bobs Redmill gluten-free creamy buckwheat cereal and Millet are good alternatives with ultra low heavy metals, mold but it seems it takes longer to prepare the minute oats. What have you changed your breakfast to.

      Ginger38, that sounds very difficult.  Each dietary restriction makes it harder to figure out what to eat. Before my celiac diagnosis I already watched out for my cholesterol level and migraine triggers, but those are much easier than diabetes restrictions. One “bad” meal isn’t that much of a problem for cholesterol levels, and my migraines only happened if I consistently ate the triggers. After many years I’ve figured out how to bake gluten free but I think many recipes have more starch which wouldn’t work for diabetes. If you go with the elephant eating analogy, I think the first portion to work on would be the diabetes, since the immediate consequences of not being careful (passing out from low blood sugar, or diabetic coma from high blood sugar) are so severe. The next portion would be celiac. The serious consequences aren’t as immediate, but if you have celiac disease, I think of eating gluten like a booster shot - revving up the immune system, but to attack yourself leading to long term damage. It sounds like you are experiencing this damage now. I did a google search on “gluten free food for diabetics” and a number of sites with advice came up.  If your insurance will cover it and you can find one, a registered dietician who knows about both diabetes and celiac disease might help you figure out what to eat safely. Hopefully my post will both scare and encourage you, as requested, with a big dose of compassion because this sounds very difficult and you are clearly suffering.

      Reading the original post on this thread made me think of "How To Eat An Elephant". The key point is that a whole, big problem can seem insurmountable but if you break it into bite-sized pieces it is much easier to accomplish. Here is the google description. It's not bad: If you're facing a daunting goal, you can use these steps to "eat your elephant": Identify the Elephant: Clearly define the large project or goal that feels overwhelming. Break it Down: Divide the major task into smaller "bite-sized" pieces. If a piece still feels too big, break it down further. Prioritize: Decide which "bite" to take first based on necessity or impact. Focus on the Now: Instead of worrying about the whole animal, focus only on the single step you are taking right now. Maintain Consistency: Progress comes from taking the "next right step" every day until the task is complete. Celebrate Small Wins If I understood Ginger38's post correctly, you are facing the prospect of a gluten challenge, but you are already eating gluten on an intermittent basis. It also sounds like many of the symptoms you attribute to gluten consumption are in full expression. Step back and take a deep breath. Get a notebook and start a gluten-related diary. Don't try to make it perfect; just record what you can about food intake and what you experience as you go along. Talk to your Dr's office (nurse, Dr, whomever) about the challenge. The most rigorous challenge is for someone who has already gone truly gluten free but now needs a clear diagnosis. Someone who is already eating gluten should not need as much "challenge". Even at that, google describes an example challenge as 1-2 slice of bread or 1/2 cup of pasta a day. If that describes your existing diet you are already there. For the moment, try to focus on getting past the challenge and test. Once you have the results, start planning accordingly.

      I don't know the answer to your question any better than a google search, but I am sure someone else will step up and answer. I am popping up to recommend that you keep a careful diary (in case you weren't already). Try to catalog what you are eating and experiencing. Bring a copy to your next visit (and if you have access to the Dr, also send a copy a couple days in advance). Don't assume that they will read it. They might, but they also might be under tremendous time pressure and not get to it. Two other suggestions: if your healthcare provider has a web portal, sign on and search for "gluten challenge". They may have a standard page and Dr assumed you would find it on your own. If that doesn't work, call the Dr's office and ask the office for their official advice. You probably wouldn't need to speak to the Dr directly. There should be some nurse or staff member who could answer that

      After few months going gluten free, I decided to reintroduce gluten in my diet so I can do a proper diagnosis for Celiac disease. During the gluten free period I felt incredibly good. I stopped having hypoglycemia symptoms, I gained some muscle (Still, I am considerably underweight) and my anxiety totally disappeared. I felt totally like a new person. Now, I almost reached the second week of gluten challenge and all my symptoms are progressively coming back. The first days I was ok, just a bit of acid reflux I could control with medicines. However, after the first week I started to feel real stomach pain and tiredness, my face is growing acne and sometimes (specially when I walk) i feel painful migraines.  I am afraid If I am eating too much gluten or not enough, the "4 slices of bread" indication confuses me. I am actually eating 20 g of bread, 3 biscuits and 40 g of croissant each day. My doctor was not very specific when he gave me the medical order for the gluten challenge, so I invented my own daily gluten menu. Do you have any suggestions? 4 weeks will be enough to do the blood test with my current gluten intake?  Thank you
