Hi - I understand Dinty Moore Beef Stew is gluten-free. I'm thinking about serving this for dinner. Do you other Celiacs like it?

I buy the small Dinty Moore beef stew, and it is tasty. I even like the Ham and Scalloped potatoes.

Make your own! Beef, carrots, onions, potatoes, a touch of canola oil, sage, cumin, salt, pepper, a little sweet rice flour (or corn starch), broth (or boullion and water, and optionally a touch of red wine) and half an hour. (The only trick is to brown the beef in the oil a bit first.) Quite tasty, and you can make a big batch for leftovers. WAY better than "canned" stuff.

Oh my goodness that is good to hear. Dinty Moore is the ONLY kind of canned beef stew that I like. It's so delicious YUMMY!! I truely hope it's gluten free ;)

angie: the only way to know if it is gluten free or not is to read the label. if you have questions on certain ingredients, feel free to post and ask us. But there are different types, different labels, etc., and products can change ingredients with different batches....so make sure you read the label!!!!

That's one of the things I have the hardest time with. I don't have a list of ingredients that would be listed to replace the "gluten" label. I know that dehamogonized Vegetable Protein is one of them, but other then that there are too many for me to know already. I don't have a book or anything to go by, so I get overwhelmed trying to figure out if there is Gluten in anything I am eating. Right now everything I eat is FILLED with Gluten I'm sure (except the fresh fruits and veggies). I think I have another attack coming on, so I'm going to have to go Gluten Free sooner then I wanted too UG!!

Dinty Moore beef stew is also the only pre-canned Beef Stew that I ever liked. Making your own is always nice, but it doesn't beat being able to heat some up out of the can in 3 minutes and eat.. I actually have a drawer full of Stew and Hormel Chili at work for those days when I am a moron and forget my lunch at home(usually forgoton... sitting on the counter where I set it after taking it out of the fridge in the morning...)

Yeah - I generally try to cook everything from scratch but with 3 kids there are some nights when I need to open a bag or can and dinner is served...hence the reason why I also like El Monterey Chicken or Steak corn taquitos.

Easy.

homemade is best but when you need something quick you can open up a Dinty Moore.

as far as we know it's gluten-free.

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin.  In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began developing serious vitamin-deficiency diseases: Beriberi → caused by a lack of thiamin (vitamin B1) Pellagra → caused by a lack of niacin (vitamin B3) Anemia → linked to low iron and lack of folate By the 1930s–40s, these problems were common in the U.S., especially in poorer regions. Public-health officials responded by requiring wheat flour and the breads made from it to be “enriched” with thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and iron. Folic acid was added later (1998) to prevent neural-tube birth defects. Why gluten-free bread isn’t required to be enriched? The U.S. enrichment standards were written specifically for wheat flour. Gluten-free breads use rice, tapioca, corn, sorghum, etc.—so they fall outside that rule—but they probably should be for the same reason wheat products are.

      Keep in mind that there are drawbacks to a formal diagnosis, for example more expensive life and private health insurance, as well as possibly needing to disclose it on job applications. Normally I am in favor of the formal diagnosis process, but if you've already figured out that you can't tolerate gluten and will likely stay gluten-free anyway, I wanted to at least mention the possible negative sides of having a formal diagnosis. While I understand wanting a formal diagnosis, it sounds like she will likely remain gluten-free either way, even if she should test negative for celiac disease (Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If her symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it would likely signal NCGS).

      Thank you all so much for your advice and thoughts. We ended up having another scope and more bloodwork last week. All serological markers continue to increase, and the doc who did the scope said there villous atrophy visible on the scope — but we just got the biopsy pathology report back, and all it says is, “Duodenal mucosa with patchy increased intraepithelial lymphocytes, preserved villous architecture, and patchy foveolar metaplasia,” which we are told is still inconclusive…  We will have her go gluten free again anyway, but how soon would you all test again, if at all? How valuable is an official dx in a situation like this?

      Thanks for this Russ, and good to see that it is fortified. I spend too much time looking for M&S gluten-free Iced Spiced Buns to have ever noticed this! That's interesting, Scott.  Have manufacturers ever said why that should be the case?
