Canned Beans and Canned Vegetables

[RoseMG]

Hey everyone! I am slowing getting the hang of this new diet.

Wondering what brands of canned beans or canned vegetables you all use (if any)? Gluten is not listed as an ingredient on the label generally, but I'm wondering if I should be concerned about cross contamination.

I have no symptoms when I ingest gluten (what the doc called silent Celiac) so unfortunately I can't rely on my body telling me if canned goods like these are safe.

Thank you!

You should be ok with most canned veggies if they don't have gluten ingredients.

Ok, thanks! Do you use canned beans by any chance?

Read the labels. If there is no wheat, rye or barley it should be OK.I don't know what kind of beans you mean, but I frequently use Bush's red beans and their Grillin' Beans with no problem.

Thank you! I do always read labels, but with no symptoms it's hard to tell if the food I eat is cross contaminated. I've heard beans run the risk of that more than other foods.  I did email Bush's and they were helpful!

All BUSH'S^® canned bean products are gluten-free. We do use corn starch in some of our products, but it does not contain gliadin gluten from wheat, barley, oats or rye grains, which may cause adverse responses in people suffering from Celiac Sprue.

I have an emergency stock of Libbys Naturals Peas and Green Beans. Also use Del Monte no Salt Green Beens and Sweet Peas. Read ingredients carefully because some canned foods add some preservatives and flavors. I find the same with canned fish and meats. I buy my canned fish at Vital Choice but also have found Bumblebee sardines and tuna in water or Beachclif sardines in water to be good. I have multiple food intollerences so I lok for ine to two ingredient gluten free dry and canned foods for my pantry.
