Johnsonville makes one, but I'm at work and don't have the details handy.

Hmm... I've never heard of that. Is it frozen, refrigerated or on the shelf (like the microwave bacon)?

Thanks~

AppleGate Farms has gluten-free breakfast sausages. I have only seen them at some Whole Foods.

Ok, well I'll have to make my way to Whole Foods at some point. I was hoping something mainstream was out there, but after looking at labels I was fairly certain there wasn't anything.

Thanks~

We use Whole Foods 365 links or Welshire Farms Patties. The ones that WF makes and sells in their case are often gluten-free. I also make my own with this recipe. Open Original Shared Link

Ah, and I imagine the 365 ones are probably a little less expensive (?) I'll have to stock up once a month. WF is quite a ways from here.

I have not tried Johnsonville yet but have looked at their website the other week. They label their products gluten free if they are and you can also check them out on their website before heading to the store.

I have seen these at Smith's (same as Ralph's and Kroger) and also WalMart.

GOOD LUCK :)

Awesome, thanks! I go to Walmart almost every week, so that'll work nicely too.

Jennie-o! I love their turkey sausages. So do gluten-eating folks. Their packages have a gluten free symbol on them, even. The website homepage shows the gluten free symbol at the bottom. I just ate them yesterday!

Farmer Johns skinless links and patties are gluten free and nitrite free as well.

Try Jones Sausage (www.jonessausage.com)! Pretty much all their sausages are gluten-free - just not the maple flavored ones.

Happy eating!

Really, virtually all breakfast sausages are gluten-free. I grew up thinking manufacturers always put bread filler is sausage, hot dogs, hamburger patties, etc. Turns out it isn't true.

You are right, definitely not always! But not never, either. For me, often enough to check labels or inquire at restaurants. Just Monday we had a lovely meal, restaurant had house-made charcuterie (meaning variety of fancy/expensive sausage) plate, it was *not* gluten-free. Another restaurant no more than 10 miles away has a plate that usually zero to one of the sausage items has gluten, and they can substitute.

Another case of,

"whatever the question, the answer is 'it depends'"

Just in case anyone is reading this thread in 2009 - I just got off of the phone with Jimmy Dean and the Pre-cooked Turkey sausage links that you can buy at Costco are not considered gluten free. They have caramel coloring and the person I spoke with said on this particular product they cannot find the source of the coloring so it could be barley. I ate these for a while and didn't feel great so I gave them a call. They also said that Sara Lee and Jimmy Deam will never hide gluten in "spices" or "flavors", for what it is worth. Jones sausage has a new "All Natural" sausage that even says Gluten Free on the box. No nitrates and it is about half the price of the Applegate Farms (which I love).

Good luck! :ph34r:

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      After the birth of my daughter nearly 6 years ago, my stools changed. They became thin if they happened to be solid (which was rare) but most of the time it was Bristol #6 (very loose and 6-8x a day). I was on various medications and put it down to that. A few years later I went on this strict "fruit and meat" diet where I just ate meat, fruit, and squash...

      I am on day 13 of eating gluten and have decided to have the celiac panel done tomorrow instead of Wed. (and instead of extending it a few more weeks) because I am SO incredibly sick. I have almost no appetite and am not able to consume the required daily intake of calcium to try to keep up with the loss of calcium from the high parathyroid hormone...

But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.

      After the birth of my daughter nearly 6 years ago, my stools changed. They became thin if they happened to be solid (which was rare) but most of the time it was Bristol #6 (very loose and 6-8x a day). I was on various medications and put it down to that. A few years later I went on this strict "fruit and meat" diet where I just ate meat, fruit, and squash vegetables. I noticed my stools were suddenly formed, if a bit narrow. I knew then that the diarrhea was probably food related not medication related. I tried following the fodmap diet but honestly it was just too complicated, I just lived with pooping 8x a day and wondering how I'd ever get and keep a job once my children were in school.  This past December I got my yearly bloodwork and my triglycerides were high. I looked into Dr. William Davis (wheat belly author) and he recommended going off wheat and other grains. This is the first time in my life I was reading labels to make sure there was no wheat. Within 2 weeks, not only were my stools formed and firm but I was only pooping twice a day, beautiful formed Bristol #4.  Dr. Davis allows some legumes, so I went ahead and added red lentils and beans. Nervous that the diarrhea would come back if I had IBS-D. Not only did it not come back, it just made my stools even bigger and beautiful. Still formed just with a lot more width and bulk. I've also been eating a lot of plant food like tofu, mushrooms, bell peppers, hummus etc which I thought was the cause of my diarrhea before and still, my stools are formed. In January I ran a genetics test because I knew you had to have the genes for celiac. The report came back with  DQ 2.2 plus other markers that I guess are necessary in order for it to be possible to have celiac. Apparently DQ 2.2 is the "rarer" kind but based on my report it's genetically possible for me to have celiac.  I know the next step is to bring gluten back so I can get testing but I am just not wanting to do that. After suffering with diarrhea for years I can't bring myself to do it right now. So that is where I am!

      I am on day 13 of eating gluten  and have decided to have the celiac panel done tomorrow instead of Wed. (and instead of extending it a few more weeks) because I am SO incredibly sick. I have almost no appetite and am not able to consume the required daily intake of calcium to try to keep up with the loss of calcium from the high parathyroid hormone and/or the renal calcium leak.    I have spent the past 15 years working hard to improve my health. I lost 50lbs, got off handfuls of medications, lowered my cholesterol to enviable levels, and in spite of having end stage osteoarthritis in both knees, with a good diet and keeping active I have NO pain in those joints- til now.  Almost all of my joints hurt now I feel like someone has repeatedly punched me all over my torso- even my ribs hurt- I have nausea, gas, bloating, headache, mood swings, irritability, horrid flatulence (afraid to leave the house or be in any enclosed spaces with other people- the smell would knock them off their feet) I was so sure that I wanted a firm diagnosis but now- I'm asking myself is THIS worth it? esp over the past 2 yrs I have been feeling better and better the more I adjusted my diet to exclude highly refined grains and processed foods. I didn't purposely avoid gluten, but it just happened that not eating gluten has made me feel better.   I don't know what I would have to gain by getting a definitive diagnosis. I think possibly the only advantage to a DX would be that I could insist on gluten-free foods in settings where I am unable to have access to foods of my choice (hospital, rehab, nursing home)  and maybe having a medical reason to see a dietician?   please let me know if it's reasonable to just go back to the way I was eating.  Actually I do plan to buy certified gluten-free oats as that is the only grain I consume (and really like) so there will be some minor tweaks I hope and pray that I heal quickly from any possible damage that may have been done from 13 days of eating gluten.
