Does anyone know if the Campbells chicken and rice soup is gluten free? I found an old post from 2005 that someone said it was but I know things change often.

I would suspect that it is NOT gluten free. People here try very hard to be accurate when recommending a gluten free product. But, to be totally safe, be good at reading labels or company confirmations.

I dont believe it is gluten free, I thought wheat starch was in it. Dont quote me on that though.

Is this from Campbell's in the US or in Canada? The information I have is that the Bean & Bacon made for Canadian consumers was gluten free...of course, that could have easily changed.

The last I knew of bean and bacon from Canada is gluten free but the United States one is not. I plan on picking up some cans on our next trip to Canada for my Husband since its one of his favorite soups.

Well here is the answer to my question about the chicken and rice soup. I read the ingredients and nothing obvious that I saw. That just reminds me to always assume its not ok. At least I am learning. I didn't eat it, but I now have 3 cans of it :rolleyes: ...... Canned food drive here I come.

Here is their response.

Do you have a soup kitchen you could donate it too? Another option might be a local church, quite a few around here donate foods to the local soup kitchens and accept canned and boxed foods.

This clearly must be US Campbells! I've been eating chicken and rice soup, and a few others, and there is DEFINITELY no wheat or any form of it in the chicken and rice soup. Any that they've listed gluten-free here in Canada is made with either potato starch or corn starch. And that has never changed, because I continue to check the labels. And I've yet to get sick...(and you all know i'm SO sensative!!!)

The ones that say gluten-free in Canada are:

Bean with bacon, chicken broth, chicken with rice, chicken with white and wild rice, fiesta tomato, tomato with basil and oregano, vegatable broth with onions, ready to serve healthy request soup: new england clam chowder, chunky ready to serve soup: french canadian pea, pea with garden vegetable, pea with smoked ham

Thought that I would clear up for any Canadians reading this post too...

Campbells have a clear-disclosure policy with respect to gluten sources. If it is in there, they will clearly tell you so in the ingredients list.

But, the ingredients for some products are different in Canada than in the US. As Lisa noted, in Canada the chicken with rice is gluten-free; in the US it is not.

Campbells lists gluten? Here are the ingredients from the back of the condensed chicken with rice (in the USA):

Chicken Stock, cooked rice, cooked chicken meat, water, carrots, modified food starch, chicken fat, contains less than 1% of: celery, cooked mechanically separated chicken, monosodium glutamate, sugar, maltodextrin, onions, vegetable oil, yeast extract, spice extract, cornstarch, beta carotene for color, lactic acid, soy protein isolate, sodium phosphates, chicken flavor, (contains chicken stock, chicken powder, chicken fat), flavoring, soy lecithin

Where is the gluten? I thought it was ok but thought I'd check with Campbells to make sure about the "flavoring" and they said it wasn't gluten free. I thought they did hide gluten or I would have asked which ingredient was not ok.

I don't see any gluten disclosed on the US ingredient list. It is my understanding that they will clearly label gluten ingredients in both the US and Canada.

The Canadian ingredient list for condensed chicken with rice:

Chicken broth, rice, seasoned chicken, carrots, salt, chicken fat, potato starch, water, celery, monosodium glutamate, chicken flavour, mechanically separated chicken meat, dehydrated onions, spice, beta carotene, disodium guanylate, disodium isonate, soy protein isolate, dehydrated garlic and lactic acid.

It is a different formula in many ways.

Is it possible that we have run into another CYA situation where a product contains no gluten ingredients, but the company is now afraid, for legal liability reasons, to say that it is gluten-free for fear of possible contamination.

Canada is now so picky about their labelling rules that its been updated again. So even if there is no gluten in it, they can no long say "natural flavour" or "natural seasoning". It must be specified for all of the major food allergies. Just read about that. And up here, according to the Canadian Celiac Association, if something is said to be gluten free but you get ill/glutened, you can report it with the food inspection agency and they investigate. Their website also lists any products the agency had found to in fact not be gluten-free.

I bought some Progresso chicken and rice soup.

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Medication

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the community! Generally, for a gluten challenge before celiac disease blood tests, Tylenol (acetaminophen) is considered safe and should not interfere with your antibody results. The medications you typically need to avoid are those like ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve) that can cause intestinal irritation, which could potentially complicate the interpretation of an endoscopy if you were to have one. However, it is absolutely crucial that you confirm this with either your gastroenterologist or your surgeon before your procedure. They know the specifics of your case and can give you the definitive green light, ensuring your surgery is comfortable and your celiac testing remains accurate. Best of luck with your surgery tomorrow
