I am not a bean lover, but I do like putting VanCamp's Pork N Beans in my chili ~ yes, it sounds wierd, but it is good!! Anyway, since learning that VanCamp's is NOT gluten-free, I need an alternative. Any ideas?? Is Bush's gluten-free? Any other brand? I like the small navy beans... not any red or kidney beans. Yes, I am picky when it comes to beans! Sorry!! :(

Bush's beans has a gluten-free list. I believe everything is gluten-free except their chili magic line. You will probably want to write them and get a current list. Hope that helps.

Thank you!! That is great to know. I will write them asap and find out. I needed to go to the grocery store, so I will pick up a can (after reading the label of course!). ;)

Since you are in Nebraska, you probably have HyVee stores there? The HyVee brand of Pork & Beans are gluten free according to their gluten free list at HyVee.com.

Thank you Dewey! ~ The closest one is an hour away, but I do go that way more often than I should! :) I will give them a try.

VanCamp's may possibly have changed their formula since this thread was begun in 2004. But, everywhere I'd seen on the internet, VanCamp's Pork and Beans in tomato sauce is gluten-free. Well, I don't think so. Possibly gluten is now being put in the "natural flavorings?" Anyway, I've had one heck of a gluten reaction after eating this yesterday. I'm still having problems today, like I always do for 24-48 hours after getting glutened.

Everything else I ate was all fresh whole foods, so there is no doubt what did it. The VanCamp's Pork and Beans.

I sure wish these manufacturer's would put on their labels when they've changed a formula, or put the allergy warnings like they should. It would have saved me two days of pure He$$.

Does Nebraska have Meijers? I liked thier organic beans. I tried several varieties and had no problems.

Nope, sorry, just checked and you don't have Meijers Brand stores.

For those of you in the Great Lakes area though..........

Campbell's appear to be gluten-free. Does anyone know for sure?

Last I heard, Campbell's beans are not gluten-free. B&M are, though, and imported Heinz from England. You might want to check the Campbell's website - they were not when I went gluten free 5 years ago and I haven't checked lately.

Okay, thanks. Pork and beans are not something I buy too often. I have diabetes and they are pretty high in carbs for me. Mainly I just buy plain canned or dried beans. I do think I had some little cans of pork and beans (thought they might have been Campbell's but maybe not) that daughter didn't react to. But she is no longer allergic to gluten. Just wheat.

I called Campbells, they said nothing they put in a can is gluten free.

Here is the link to Campbell's gluten free. They commented on a thread I was reading yesterday about soups. Open Original Shared Link

(I didn't look to see if it would help this question, though.)

      In general with pharmaceutical products cross-contamination is a much lower risk.

      Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Just so you'll know, once you have been gluten-free for any length of time, it will invalidate testing for celiac disease.

      Yes. I have not been tested for celiac. It took forever to get diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. lol. I have an appointment with my regular GP later this month and will convey my findings on improved symptoms and see what his thoughts are. Thank you.

      Refractory celiac disease

      @Grahamsnaturalworld, It's never too late.   Have you been checked for Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth?  SIBO can cause ongoing symptoms.  Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and Histamine Intolerance (HIT) can also be the cause of ongoing symptoms.  The AIP diet can help with these by starving out SIBO bacteria and calming the immune system. Do you include dairy in your diet?  Casein in dairy can cause an autoimmune response the same as to gluten.  Have you been checked for lactose intolerance?  Some people lose the ability to produce the enzyme, lactase, needed to digest lactose, the sugar in dairy because the villi where the lactase enzyme is made are damaged.  AIP diet excludes dairy. Do you include grains in your diet?  Gluten free alternative grains and ancient grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms.  Some people with Celiac react to corn and oats.  The AIP diet excludes all grains.  Lectins in grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms. Do you eat nightshades (tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, and eggplant).  This family of plants produce glycoalkaloids, chemicals that promote Leaky Gut Syndrome.  The AIP diet excludes nightshades.   Are you on any medications?  Some medications can cause gastrointestinal symptoms.  Do you take any supplements?  Some herbal teas and supplements can cause digestive symptoms.  Medications for diabetes, antidepressants, and other pharmaceuticals can cause digestive symptoms as side effects. Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Malabsorption of essential nutrients can occur with continued symptoms.  Deficiencies in Niacin, Thiamine, and other B vitamins can cause digestive symptoms.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi and Pellagra are often overlooked by doctors because they are not familiar with nutritional deficiency disease symptoms.  Nutritional deficiencies can worsen over time as stores inside the body are depleted.   Have your doctors checked for all these?   I had a horrible time getting my symptoms under control.  I had to answer all these questions myself.  Yes, it's frustrating and exasperating because doctors don't have to live with these symptoms everyday.
