Calling Kroger Shoppers

We got a gift card for Kroger's but we don't shop there. As I need a baked ham for NY day, I need to know if anyone who does shop there (and eats ham) knows if they offer a gluten free baked ham. I already had to scratch my first idea of getting one from Honeybaked - wheat starch right on the label. Ay ya ya............it never ends.

Kroger does have an 800 number, don't have it on me, and they are really quite knowledgeable and helpful. I have rarely, if ever, had any problems with Kroger brand stuff.

Don't know if this helps or not. We have a Kroger nearby but I went to another regional chain and wrote down the the brands that they carried then looked them up on the web and called a few. Of the ones I was able to get good info. on, Hillshire Farms explained their labeling practices and said they'd clearly state any wheat on labels. I'd feel comfortable purchasing their product. But have to say that I didn't go back and check the ingredients. It's one to keep am eye out for. I ended up purchasing a Harper's Country Ham. I tried to get info on Tyson and Carolia Pride but was unsuccessful.

Ham is very, very easy. If it doesn't list wheat, it's gluten-free. That really is all you need to know.

The spiral cut hams are a lot like honey baked, but they have a packet of glaze that has wheat in it. The ham is fine the glaze is not. So you just have to make your own glaze.

My Kroger carries Hormel Cure 81 ham which is gluten free. I baked it in an oven bag and made a very simple glaze. I was amazed at how easy it was and everyone liked it better than our traditional HoneyBaked!

Can you give us the recipe for your glaze? I would like to have a glaze recipe. Thanks for the information!

If you live in the south, you could probably just get some salt-cured ham. MUCH better than that "slimy" other stuff, in my opinion. I know the Kroger that I go to in Central KY has it...a holiday dinner must!

dragonmom, I would love your recipe for glaze! I have a gift certificate to honey baked hams but without the glaze, I don't like ham.

The glaze I used sounds almost too simple, but was sooo good - just mix 1-1/4 cups dark brown sugar with 1/4 dijon mustard. Here's how I prepped the ham:

Lightly score the ham in a diamond pattern.

Insert whole cloves in center of each diamond (optional). I didn't use them.

Place ham (cut side down) with 20-oz can of pineapple tidbits and juice in oven bag.

Set sealed bag in a foil-lined roasting pan and heat in 325 oven for about 1 hour.

Remove ham from bag, reserving pineapple and juice.

Place ham directly in foil-lined roasting pan and brush with prepared glaze.

(The glaze will naturally run downward as it heats, so I brush it extra thick on top.)

Continue to heat ham uncovered for 30 minutes.

Carve and serve, using reserved pineapple and juice to spoon over slices if desired.

The oven bag helps keep the ham moist, and lining the roasting pan with foil makes cleanup much easier as the glaze will permanently attach itself to the pan otherwise! Enjoy!!!

I found out Kroger has a spiral cut Brown Sugar Ham that is gluten free. That is what I'll use for NY day. It appears that the glaze is on this ham, yet it is still gluten free. If I find out otherwise after opening, I will make my own glaze - thanks for the recipe.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.

      FDA Moves to Improve Gluten Labeling—What It Means for People With Celiac Disease

      My question I have proposed to the FDA through their website is why Prescription and OTC drug manufacturers are not required to list what binding ingredients were used to bine the drug? They list this on Capsules which are made of cellulose but not on pills? As it stands I or my pharmacist must contact the manufacturer to find out and my list is long from...

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!
