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!

      Celiac getting dentures

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Fighting for a name

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
