Anyone know of a good tasting lunch meat that is easy to find at the local grocery store besides Carl Buddig. Thanks

I've bought some that is labeled "gluten free" right on the package but I can't recall the name. It's the more expensive type and is usually located in the deli section rather than with the other meats. I've bought both ham and turkey.

Perhaps you're thinking of Freybe? Their meat sticks are great! :D

I suggest Columbus Meats, all varieties are gluten free (and very tasty!). I especially like the peppercorn crusted hard salami and the Italian turkey. You can find CM at Trader Joes ;)

I eat Hebrew National Salami, Hormel Ham, Hormel Roast Beef, Oscar Meyer Bologna, Oscar Meyer Turkey.

I really like Hormel Cure 81 Ham - that is the bomb (but kinda expensive).

Boar's Head is good too!

Hillshire Farm. Oscar Meyer will clearly list any gluten.

Foster Farms website said to check the ingredient lists for gluten containing items so I'm assuming they list things as well.

Of the prepackaged, I like Hillshire Farm the best. Jenny O second.

Oscar Meyer, I've never really cared for.

All 3 are gluten-free, at least the Roast Beef and Turkey ones I buy. There ends up being so many different kinds so I'd still check.

Actually about 30 minutes ago I just finished a roast beef, colby jack, cheder, bacon sandwich on toasted gluten-free bread.

mmm... bacon.

I found Dietz & Watson at my local Shaw's deli counter. This store took the slicer apart and sterilized it in front of me when I asked for a clean dedicated slicer. I was told any deli will do this if you ask. The staff said even if they are busy, if I request this service due to medical reasons, they have no problem with it.

The only meat listed on the site as not gluten-free was a couple of flavored Chicken Breasts. The Bacon Lover's Turkey, Virginia Ham, Roast Beef, and Pastrami are great. I put some of the turkey and ham along with Cracker Barrel cheese pieces in a salad for my husband. Makes a good meal. I tasted a slice of the Sante Fe Turkey and while it's good, it's a bit too spicy for me.

Here's their site if you want to check them out. www.dietz&watson.net

Cool /corney story about Boar's Head. Mybest friend was riding in the car and heard a Boar's head add and in the add they actually said they are gluten free. She got so excited because she knows my DD was just diagnosed so she called me as soon as the add was over from her car! LOL Of course Boars head is hard to find where I live but it was still cool to hear since where I used to live in GA all we bought was Boars head!

DiLusso brand deli meats now advertise gluten free. I don't know if they are available everywhere but we live in the midwest.

We love all their meats, especially the rare roast beef. We make a killer Philly Steak and Cheese. Saute a little green pepper and onion then add roast beef just long enough to heat. Place in a Kinnikinnick hot dog bun, top with mozzorello cheese, brush the bun with a little melted margarine and place in a hot oven until bun is toasted and cheese is melted. OMG

      thank you so much for your detailed and extremely helpful reply!! I can say with absolute certainty that the less gluten containing products I've eaten over the past several years, the better I've felt. I wasn't avoiding gluten, I was avoiding refined grains (and most processed foods) as well as anything that made me feel bad when I ate it. It's the...

      Wow KK, thank you so much for all your attached info. I had a very quick scan but will read more in depth later.  The one concerning corticosteroid use is very interesting. That would relate to secondary adrenal insufficiency I think , ie AI caused by steroids such as taken long term for eg asthma. I have primary autoimmune AI, my adrenals are atrophied, no chance if recovery there. But I am in touch with some secondaries, so something to bear in mind. .  Niacin B3 Very interesting too. Must have a good read about that.  Im sure lots of questions will arise as I progress with dermatitis herpetiformis. In the mean time, thanks for your help.

      Thank you all for your advice and the dermatitis herpetiformis article. The latter made me realise I had stopped taking my antihistamine, which I will restart today. The Dapsone has cleared the rash entirely but I still get quite a bit itching, absolutely nothing to see though. I know its notoriously hard to clear and its still relatively early days for me.  The iodine issue is very interesting. I do eat quite a bit of salt because I have Addison's disease and sodium retention is an issue. I also have autoimmune hypothyroidism, not sure how a low iodine diet would play into that? Because of my Addison's I am totally steroid dependent, I take steroids 4 x daily and cannot mount any defence against inflammation. I need to increase my meds for that. Now that I know what is wrong I can do just that if Im having a bad day. Life is very sweet, just so damn complicated sometimes! Hey ho, onwards. Thank you again for your advice.

      So, essentially all of the nutrition in the food we eat is absorbed through the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestinal track that is damaged by celiac disease. This villous lining is composed of billions of finger-like projections that create a huge amount of surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the celiac person, when gluten is consumed, it triggers an autoimmune reaction in this area which, of course, generates inflammation. The antibodies connected with this inflammation is what the celiac blood tests are designed to detect but this inflammation, over time, wears down the finger-like projections of the villous lining. Of course, when this proceeds for an extended period of time, greatly reduces the absorption efficiency of the villous lining and often results in many and various nutrient deficiency-related health issues. Classic examples would be osteoporosis and iron deficiency. But there are many more. Low D3 levels is a well-known celiac-caused nutritional deficiency. So is low B12. All the B vitamins in fact. Magnesium, zinc, etc.  Celiac disease can also cause liver inflammation. You mention elevated ALP levels. Elevated liver enzymes over a period of 13 years was what led to my celiac diagnosis. Within three months of going gluten free my liver enzymes normalized. I had elevated AST and ALT. The development of sensitivities to other food proteins is very common in the celiac population. Most common cross reactive foods are dairy and oats but eggs, soy and corn are also relatively common offenders. Lactose intolerance is also common in the celiac population because of damage to the SB lining.  Eggs when they are scrambled or fried give me a gut ache. But when I poach them, they do not. The steam and heat of poaching causes a hydrolysis process that alters the protein in the egg. They don't bother me in baked goods either so I assume the same process is at work. I bought a plastic poacher on Amazon to make poaching very easy. All this to say that many of the issues you describe could be caused by celiac disease.

      thank you so much for your detailed and extremely helpful reply!! I can say with absolute certainty that the less gluten containing products I've eaten over the past several years, the better I've felt.   I wasn't avoiding gluten, I was avoiding refined grains (and most processed foods) as well as anything that made me feel bad when I ate it. It's the same reason I gave up dairy and eggs- they make me feel ill.  I do have a bit of a sugar addiction lol so a lot of times I wasn't sure if it was the refined grains that I was eating - or the sugar. So from time to time I might have a cookie or something but I've learned how to make wonderful cookies and golden brownies with BEANS!! and no refined sugar - I use date paste instead. Pizza made me so ill- but I thought it was probably the cheese. I gave up pizza and haven't missed it. the one time I tried a slice I felt so bad I knew I'd never touch it again. I stopped eating wheat pasta at least 3 yrs ago- just didn't feel well after eating it. I tried chick pea pasta and a few others and discovered I like the brown rice pasta. I still don't eat a lot of pasta but it's nice for a change when I want something easy. TBH over the years I've wondered sometimes if I might be gluten intolerant but really believed it was not possible for me to have celiac disease. NOW I need to know for sure- because I'm in the middle of a long process of trying to find out why I have a high parathyroid level (NOT the thyroid- but rather the 4 glands that control the calcium balance in your body) I have had a hard time getting my vit D level up, my serum calcium has run on the low side of normal for many years... and now I am losing calcium from my bones and excreting it in my urine (some sort of renal calcium leak) Also have a high ALP since 2014. And now rapidly worsening bone density.  I still do not have a firm diagnosis. Could be secondary HPT (but secondary to what? we need to know) It could be early primary HPT. I am spilling calcium in my urine but is that caused by the high parathyroid hormone or is it the reason my PTH is high>? there are multiple feedback loops for this condition.    so I will keep eating the bread and some wheat germ that does not seem to bother me too much (it hasn't got enough gluten to use just wheat germ)    but I'm curious- if you don't have a strong reaction to a product- like me and wheat germ- does that mean it's ok to eat or is it still causing harm even if you don't have any obvious symptoms? I guess what you are saying about silent celiac makes it likely that you can have no symptoms and still have the harm... but geez! you'd think they'd come up with a way to test for this that didn't require you to consume something that makes you sick! I worry about the complications I've been reading about- different kinds of cancers etc. also wondering- are there degrees of celiac disease?  is there any correlation between symptoms and the amnt of damage to your intestines? I also need a firm diagnosis because I have an identical twin sister ... so if I have celiac, she has it too- or at least the genetic make up for having it. I did have a VERY major stress to my body in 2014-2016 time frame .. lost 50lbs in a short period of time and had severe symptoms from acute protracted withdrawal off an SSRI drug (that I'd been given an unethically high dose of, by a dr who has since lost his license)  Going off the drug was a good thing and in many ways my health improved dramatically- just losing 50lbs was helpful but I also went  off almost a dozen different medications, totally changed my diet and have been doing pretty well except for the past 3-4 yrs when the symptoms related to the parathyroid issue cropped up. It is likely that I had low vit D for some time and that caused me a lot of symptoms. The endo now tells me that low vit D can be caused by celiac disease so I need to know for sure! thank you for all that great and useful information!!!
