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.

I guess that makes it simple. :huh:

Are any of these gluten-free AND corn 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.)

      Is it gluten?

      Scott, I agree with everything you said except the term "false negative". It should be a "true negative" just plain negative. I actually looked up true/false negative/positive as it pertains to testing. The term "false negative" would be correct if you are positive (have anti-bodies) and the test did not pick them up. That would be a problem with the "test...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free...

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

That would be a problem with the "test" itself. If you were gluten-free and got tested, you more than likely would test "true" negative or just negative. This means that the gluten-free diet is working and no anti-bodies should be present. I know it sounds confusing and if you don't agree feel free to respond.

Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the brain fog is back and I feel very tired.
