Lunchmeat

Hello. I was wondering if anyone knew of brands of gluten-free lunchmeat? I have or thought I have been gluten-free for over a year, but after reading some messages I have found that I have been eating gluten. I eat lunchmeat and cheese about everyday for lunch. I would like to be sure on the gluten-free brands.

thanks!

Lots of lunch meats are gluten-free. With Oscar Meyer all you have to do is read the ingredients. Any gluten would be listed. Hillshire Farms and Carl Buddig are gluten-free. Most Sara Lee but not all (although the prepackaged ones might all be gluten-free). I think that all Boarshead lunch meats are gluten-free now.

Generally speaking my experience has been that if a lunch meat has gluten, it will be listed and that prepackaged lunch meats are all or virtually all gluten-free. One warning -- if you're having the meat sliced at a counter, you need to ask them to clean the slicer or use a clean one.

All prepackaged Sara Lee meats are gluten-free. Also-Hillshire as Richard mentioned. Hillshire Deli Selects are my favorite--in the red gladware tub.

Hormel has come out with a line of all natural gluten free and marked as such, lunch meats. Just look for the brown package, and their pepperoni has been labeled gluten-free for as long as I have been looking. I know most lunch meats are supposed to be safe but I would rather not have to call a company, and I do even if it appears okay- been got too many times. Plus they need to label clearly and I will continue to call and check on safety of anything not labeled gluten-free until all companies put it on their label.

If you live in Canada, Feybe's is gluten free and says so right on the label :D

I just went into a whole foods market today and they had lunch meat with a gluten free label right on the front of the package! I don't remember the brand name though. Just thought that you may want to check out whole foods markets because they may carry gluten-free lunch meats. The name of the store I was in is Amaranth Whole Foods Market.

Freybe is also casein free. It says lactose free on the label, but I confirmed with their website and they do not add any dairy.

Does anyone know if Wilson Hard Salami is gluten-free? I can't seem to get an answer if it is or not. I love eating cream cheese on a slice and then sandwiching another slice on top of that!! YUMMY!!

      What you describe is seronegative villous atrophy (negative antibody tests but positive biopsy). It is uncommon in coeliac disease, and there are other causes, but the most common cause is coeliac disease. I would pursue this with your healthcare provider if possible. Based on clinical history, test results and possible genetic testing for susceptibility to coeliac disease it should be possible to give a diagnosis. There is a bit more here: Seronegative coeliac disease

      If you are still eating gluten you could get a celiac disease blood panel done, but I agree with @trents and the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease would be your endoscopy results. Is it possible they did do a celiac disease panel before your biopsy? This would be the normal chain of events. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Actually, it would be more correct to say that the genetic potential to develop celiac disease is passed down from parents to children. About 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% of the general population actually do. But it is also true that the offspring of those who do have active celiac disease are at a considerably higher risk of developing active celiac disease than those of parents who have the genes but don't develop the disease. Some recent, larger studies put the risk at near 50% for the first degree relatives of those who have active celiac disease.

      Hello everyone! Been a while since I posted. The past few moths have been the best by for recovery for myself. I have been the least bloated I have ever been, my constant throat clearing is almost gone, I have stopped almost all medication I was prevously taking (was taking vyvanse for adhd, pristiq for anxiety,fomotadine/blexten for histamine blockers and singulair). Only thing I take now is Tecta. I also no longer get any rashes after eating. Things are going very well. Most success came actually once I upped my B12 daily dose to 5,000 mcg. I do have one thing I am un able to figure out and want to see if anyone else has this issue or has experience working around it. Ever since I was born I have always had a issue getting fruits and veggies down. No matter how hard I tried, it would always result in gagging or throwing up. Always just thought I was a picky eater. Now that my stomach and system has healed enough that I can feel when something is off almost istantly, I notice that after eating most fruits (sometimes I am ok with bananas) and veggies, my stomach instantly starts burning and my heart starts to pound and I get really anxious as if my body doesnt know what to do with what just enetered it. So I am thinking now that this is what probably was going on when I was born and my body started rejecting it before which caused this weird sensory issue with it causing the gagging. Hoping someone has some exprience with this as well because I would love to be able to enjoy a nice fruit smoothie once in a while haha. Thanks everyone!

      i know i've been rather cynical and sad about being fully diagnosed in june 2025, but my boyfriend has been consistently showing me the wonderful world that is gluten free cooking and baking. in the past couple of days he's made me a gluten free rice paper-wrapped spanakopita "pastry", plus a wonderful mac and cheese bechamel-ish sauce with gluten free pasta (san remo brand if you're in australia/if you can get your hands on it wherever you are).  those meals are notably gluten free, but mainly he's been making me easy gluten free meals - chili mince with white rice and sour cream, chicken soup with homemade stock from the chicken remains, and roast chickens with rice flour gravy and roast veggies. i'm a bit too thankful and grateful lol. how lucky could i possibly be? and, of course, for those who don't have someone to cook for them, it's quite easy to learn to cook for yourself. i've been making a lot of meals for us too. honestly, cooking is pretty darn fun! knowing basic knife skills and sanitary practices are all you really need. experimenting with spices will help you get on track to creating some really flavourful and yummy dishes. coeliac is a pain, but you can use it to your advantage. healthier eating and having fun in the kitchen are major upsides. much luck to all of you! let's be healthy!
