I just bought a Kirkland hickory Smoked Spiral Ham. It looked OK by the ingredients, not sure about the glaze. It looks like it is just brown sugar. Anyway...does anyone know for sure if it is Gluten Free? Anyone ate it before? Thanks Jodie

If you can post the ingredients, perhaps someone can verify the gluten status for you.

It does not indicate any gluten. By law, if is contained wheat it would have to be listed.

If you don't feel comfortable with the pre-prepared glaze, a homemade glaze can be used:

Brown Sugar

Can of crushed pineapple with juice

Cinnamon

Cloves....heat to blend ingredients and glaze ham while baking.

That ham just got added to my "What I need to bring for Christmas" list. I was hoping it was gluten free too. Is it the ham in the red and gold foil?

I would hope that they are the same at all Costco's.

Last year we had that ham. The ham itself was gluten-free, but the glaze that you add later was NOT. But that was last year...

For the record, I ate the Kirkland ham for Christmas and I am NOT sick -- so I guess it is safe to say it is safe!

I did attack the ham first, and I filled up a large Ziplock before anyone else got their gluteny hands on it or passed their bread or pie over it :P

i was so excited today when we walked into Sam's Club. As soon as we walked thru the door, there was a cooler full of Ridge Creek spiral cut honey hams. It said right on the big sign "GLUTEN FREE" and when I checked the glaze packet, it also said GLUTEN FREE right on it! OF course, I had to buy one!

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

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten? I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese s...

      Kirkland brand (at Costco) is gluten-free and is 2,000 IU.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Thanks a lot for your response! Can you maybe specify which kind of cheeses I should be cautious about? Camembert/Brie and blue cheeses (the molds of which are nowadays mostly grown on gluten-free media, though, so I've read, right?) or other ones as well? Also, I was under the impression that yeast is generally gluten-free if not declared otherwise...

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
