Deli Meats?

I was wondering if the cold cuts you typically buy at grocery store delis are gluten-free.

Hillshire farm meats are all gluten free except beer brats and corn dogs. I eat their ham quite often.

Are you talking deli meats you buy in packages or the ones they slice at the counter.

The vast majority of both are gluten-free, although not all. Some of Sara Lee's that are sliced at the counter are not (you'd have to contact Sara Lee to find out which ones aren't). All Boar's Head except a couple are gluten-free. With Oscar Meyer, just read the ingredients as Kraft clearly lists any gluten. Hillshire Farm is OK except the ones mentioned above. All Carl Buddig packaged meats are gluten-free.

There is, however, a contamination problem with meats sliced at the counter. Because some are not gluten-free, you must ask the counter person to clean the slicer. I've had one person give me a hard time about this (and even then somebody else stepped in and took care of it) but everybody else I've asked has been very understanding.

      This is an older article, but may be helpful.

      I have had orthodontic work done. The 3M invisalign material was no problem. BUT my retainers are another matter. They seemed okay for a few months. Now, however, they cause a burning sensation on my tongue, gums and insides of my lips. The burning sensation is now spreading to my throat. I notice it when I breathe. This is annoying and interferes with my enjoyment of eating. I am visiting with my provider tomorrow. We'll see where this goes from here.

      Exactly which blood tests were done? There are a few different ones and some docs don't do them all. Also, your results and reference ranges for each?

      Thankyou so much for your words.Its a hard battle when a supposed well known hospital whose celiac " specialist " has down played me because my colon looks fine and put it in my medical and so pcp doesn't take seriously. In their eyes we all carry that gene.Im having alot of bad days trying to be positive because of it.

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.
