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.

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.

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 :)

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
