Are There Any Safe Hot Dog Brands In Canada?

I would really like to enjoy some all beef or turkey/chicken hot dogs, but every brand I try makes me sick. Unfourtunately, Maple Leaf and Butterball have both made me sick. I have looked for Oscar Myer, but I cannot find them anywhere. Does anyone know of any safe brands here in Canada? Thanks so much.

Do you have Hebrew National brand in Canada? They are gluten free and really good :)

Carriefaith Enthusiast

Thanks :) I will have to look for those.

Sorry, Carrie, we use Maple Leaf Top Dog hot dogs. What about looking for hot dogs manufactured by Mitchell or Olympic? I think they are gluten free. Mitchell's says they don't "hide" ingredients. You'll have to double check gluten-free status though, because I can't remember, and I'm at work so I don't have my list handy.

I actually use Butterball, but Feybe's meats should have gluten free right on them. They make Europeon type weiners which are good as well :D

Can you find Applegate Farms in Canada? I don't know if they are just in the U.S. but they are definitely gluten-free. They come in turkey or chicken that I know of for sure and maybe beef.

Also Wellshire Farms, I believe they have beef, chicken, and turkey hotdogs to choose from (but not totally positive) and they always label their allergen info. Again, not sure if they can be found in Canada.

Freybe's are also casein-free, even though they only say lactose free on the package. Their website says all except two products are casein-free.

Hey, Carriefaith, I got married at your avatar picture.

I like Hebrew National! I even like their motto ("We answer to a higher authority...") :) Only problem for me is that they have sodium nitrite, which is the only thing that has ever given me pimples! :angry:

Thanks everyone for your input. I will try and see if those brands are here in Alberta. I would really like to try Freybe's if they are gluten-free and casein free.

Freybe's is in Alberta. You can find it at Superstore, Safeway, Save-On Foods, Sobeys, Costco. Pretty much anywhere, but the selection varies. I'm not sure if they make hot dogs though.

I don't hink Alberta has Whole Foods, but maybe at Planet Organic you can find Gluten-free Casein-free hotdogs.

Harvest weiners, I've been eating them all the time ever since being diagnosed. Their other products are made with gluten/flour, but I have NEVER had contamination problems.

There are some European Weiners from Freybe's/Grimms, and a few types of smokies, but Harvest is the best. Its made here in SK, but I believe they have a website you could find!

Hi,

I buy wieners by Grimm's Fine Foods. The label says "European Wieners" Labeled gluten free I think I got them at the Co-op.

I use Harvest brand also, the kids have never had any problems. Grimms and Freybe have all sort of sliced meat, pepperoni and smokies etc that are gluten-free (and labled as such). I tried top dog but the kids had unsettled tummies afterwards - not sure if cc or just the other ingredients. Who really knows what's in a hot dog anyway! B)

I use Maple Leaf Top Dog. Freybe's has good lunch meats but I haven't tried their dogs yet.

Carriefaith Enthusiast

I have discovered Freybe's and I have been enjoying their lunch meats. Their hot dogs are quite expensive though. Some of the hot dogs brands like Harvest have milk in them. I wish that milk and gluten didn't have to be in almost everything!

Thanks everyone for your help :)

      Welcome to the forum, @Ben98! If you have been consciously or unconsciously avoiding gluten because of the discomfort it produces then it is likely that your blood antibody testing for celiac disease has been rendered invalid. Valid testing requires regular consumption of generous amounts of gluten. The other strong possibility is that you have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms with celiac disease but does not have the autoimmune component and thus does not damage the small bowel lining. It is 10x mor common than celiac disease. There is currently no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. Some experts in the field believe it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Having one or both of the primary genes for developing celiac disease does not imply that you will develop active celiac disease. It simply establishes the potential for it. About 40% of the population has the genetic potential but only about 1% develop active celiac disease.

      TTG blood test and total IGA tested on many occasions which have always remained normal, upper GI pain under my ribs since 2022. I had an endoscopy in 2023 which showed moderate gastritis. no biopsy’s were taken unfortunately. genetic test was positive for HLADQ2. extreme bloating after eating gluten, it’ll feel like I’ve got bricks in my stomach so uncomfortably full. the pain is like a dull ache under the upper left almost like a stitch feeling after a long walk. I am just wanting some advice has anyone here experienced gastritis with a gluten issue before? thank you

      "Conclusions: The urinary iodine level was significantly lower in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis, and iodine replacement may be important in preventing osteoporosis"  Body iodine status in women with postmenopausal osteoporosis Low iodine can cause thyroid problems, but Iodine deficiency will not show up in thyroid tests.  Iodine is important for healing, its job is to kill off defective and aging cells (Apoptosis). Skin, brain fog, nails, muscle tone all inproved when I started taking 600 mcg (RDA 150 - 1000 mcg) of Liquid Iodine drops. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis, Iodine exacerbates the rash.  I started at 1 drop (50 mcg) and worked up to 12 drops, but I don't have dermatitis herpetiformis.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶
