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.

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.

Thats strange that the ingredients are so different. I was wondering if is was a CYA too but I'm not gonna find out :)

I bought some Progresso chicken and rice soup.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
