Progresso Clam Chowder

My daughter so wanted clam chowder today. I have read on here that Progresso will clearly list any source of gluten, so I picked up a can of Traditional New England Clam Chowder. Everything looked ok, but I have found several posts that say that the chunky is ok but the traditional is a no no. I tried calling Progress, but they are out for the weekend. Does anyone have a list of which soups are gluten free? Thanks!

I have not tried the Clam Chowder, but I prefer the homemade kind.

Can you list the ingrediences?

It does appear to be gluten free, although more like fish chowder than clam. :huh:

Next time, if you have some time try this:

Boil chopped-peeled potatoes in Swanson Chicken Broth (enough to cover potatoes)

Cook until tender and mash them up.

Add sauteed green peppers and onions.

Add canned or Jarred clams of chopped fresh.

Salt and pepper to taste.

Add half and half .....and serve.

It's easy and great with a Caesar salad in the winter time.

Thanks! Sounds good, much better than the canned stuff I'm sure. We will have to give that a try!

I eat their clam chowder on occasion with no problem. Your clam chowder reads just like mine.

I was so excited to read the label of the Progresso clam chowder and mushroom soup. I bought 2 cans of each. I started with the clam chowder. I got pretty sick. I thought, "well, not everything is related to celiac disease" so a couple of weeks later I tried the mushroom soup. Sick again. I am thinking there is some CC. I am done with Progresso. My advise is to make your own. Good luck!

Perhaps your problem is with the dairy in the soup and not a gluten issue. Many of us have had issues with dairy during our recovery.

Hi: I was at the Boston Children's Hospital Celiac Christmas Party yesterday and there was a vendor there that was giving out samples of their new gluten-free Clam Chowder and it was delish! I really couldn't tell that it was Gluten Free. The product is Kettle Cuisine and the chowder is only one of the new soups that are coming out. The woman said that they are in Whole Foods in the frozen section. Here is their link: Open Original Shared Link

Currently, they only appear to be in New England, but perhaps they will ship or expand into other parts of the country.

I had the same experience not too long ago and it turned out for me the problem was all the soy they put in their products. Before the soy issue came up I ate the mushroom soup all the time with no problems, like for 3 years. I miss it in my tuna noodle casserole.

ravenwoodglass and Momma Goose, Thanks for the suggestions. I can eat ice cream and other milk products without any reaction so although milk could be the culprit, I am just going to avoid the soup and stay blinded to anymore allergies. Same with soy. If it is the culprit I don't want to know. I just can't face eliminating anything else from my diet. There are not other soy products that have bothered me. I eat soybeans frequently without problems. However, I will let this rattle around in my brain for further use. If I have other reactions I will know where to look.

Thanks again.

      Hi there, I’m debating whether to consider a gluten challenge and I’m hoping someone here can help with that decision (so far, none of the doctors have been helpful). I have a history of breaking out in a horrible, burning/itchy somewhat blistering rash about every 8 years. This started when I was in my early 30’s and at that point it started at the ankle...

      A Future Beyond the Gluten-Free Diet? Scientists Test a New Cell Therapy for Celiac Disease (+Video)

      This is very exciting news. The research lends itself to preventing the immune system in other autoimmune disorders from getting out of sorts. As someone with a compendium of autoimmune disorders I feel a bit of hope.

Dietary supplements like Lugol's Solution and Liquid Iodine are 50 micrograms per drop.  It takes 20 drops to reach the safe upper limit. In the US the Safe upper limit is 1100 mcg.  In Europe 600 mcg and in Japan 3000 mcg ( 3 mg).

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @JudyLou! There are a couple of things you might consider to help you in your decision that would not require you to do a gluten challenge. The first, that is if you have not had this test run already, is to request a "total IGA" test to be run. One of the reasons that celiac blood antibody tests can be negative, apart from not having celiac disease, that is, is because of IGA deficiency. If a person is IGA deficient, they will not respond accurately to the celiac disease blood antibody tests (such as the commonly run TTG-IGA). The total IGA test is designed to check for IGA deficiency. The total IGA test is not a celiac antibody test so I wouldn't think that a gluten challenge is necessary. The second is to have genetic testing done to determine if you have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease. About 30-40% of  the general population have the genetic potential but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, genetic testing cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease but it can be used to rule it out. Those who don't have the genetic potential but still have reaction to gluten would not be diagnosed with celiac disease but with NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).  Another possibility is that you do have celiac disease but are in remission. We do see this but often it doesn't last.

      Hi there, I’m debating whether to consider a gluten challenge and I’m hoping someone here can help with that decision (so far, none of the doctors have been helpful). I have a history of breaking out in a horrible, burning/itchy somewhat blistering rash about every 8 years. This started when I was in my early 30’s and at that point it started at the ankles and went about to my knees. Every time I had the rash it would cover more of my body, so my arms and part of my torso were impacted as well, and it was always symmetrical. First I was told it was an allergic reaction to a bug bite. Next I was told it was eczema (after a biopsy of the lesion - not the skin near the lesion) and given a steroid injection (didn’t help). I took myself off of gluten about 3 weeks before seeing an allergist, just to see if it would help (it didn’t in that time period). He thought the rash looked like dermatitis herpetiformis and told me to eat some bread the night before my blood tests, which I did, and the tests came back negative. I’ve since learned from this forum that I needed to be eating gluten daily for at least a month in order to get an accurate test result. I’m grateful to the allergist as he found that 5 mg of doxepin daily will eliminate the rash within about 10 days (previously it lasted for months whether I was eating gluten or not). I have been gluten free for about 25 years as a precaution and recommendation from my doctor, and the pattern of breaking out every 8 years or so remains the same except once I broke out after just one year (was not glutened as far as I know), and now it’s been over 9 years. What’s confusing to me, is that there have been 3 times in the past 2 years when I’ve accidentally eaten gluten, and I haven’t had any reaction at all. Once someone made pancakes (they said they were gluten-free, they were not) and I ate several. I need to decide whether to do a gluten challenge and get another blood test. If I do, are these tests really accurate? I’m also concerned that I could damage my gut in that process if I do have celiac disease. My brother and cousin both had lymphoma so that’s a concern regarding a challenge as well, though there is a lot of cancer in various forms in my family so there may be no gluten connection there. Sorry for the ramble, I’m just doubting the need to remain gluten free if I don’t have any reaction to eating it and haven’t had a positive test (other than testing positive for one of the genes, though it sounds like that’s pretty common). I’d appreciate any thoughts or advice!

Any ways it amps me up not able to sleep, though very tired.However I did notice it helped with my bloating sibo belly.I hate that my body is that sensitive and medical doesn't seem to take seriously. Im STILL healing with my skin, eye, and now ms or meningioma ( will know in April  which)and dealing with this limbo nightmare. I did write my name, address ect on the reclamation but im not tech savvy and not sure if went through properly. I called my city representative in Stanislaus County and asked if theres a physical paper i can sign for proclamation for celiac and she had no clue about what I was saying, so I just said I'll go back on website.

      I'm not saying that some celiacs won't need it, but it should be done under a doctor's supervision because it can cause lots of problems in some people.
