Help Please-need Free List

[Guest Kimberly81]

Hi everyone!

I was wondering if anyone could tell me where to find a decent FREE list of mainstream foods that are gluten free? We recieved one frome the ped gi in January when my daughter was diagnosed,(my son and I are gluten-free now as well, amazing how my IBS has "magically" disappeared lol ), but i would really like to have a different one to supplement it. My sister is also starting th gluten-free diet(YAY!!) and is in need of this kind of info as well. I am well aware of the many lists available for those who are willing to pay for them, but this is not in our budget at the moment, any info/help as always is GREATLY appreciated!!! You guys have helped us so much many times before, thanks~Kimberly

Of particular use to you will be the list of companies with a clear gluten disclosure policy. With thos brands, you just read the label. If you don't see wheat, rye, barley or oats, by name, they aren't there.

Not sure what grocery stores you have near you, but Whole Foods Market has a PDF you can either print out or just download and read on your computer) of all gluten free products in their store -- go to www.wholefoodsmarket.com. find your nearest location, click on "more store info", then on list to left, click on "special diets", then click on "gluten free" and it will display a 15-20 page list of safe gluten-free items. Vitamin Cottage Natural Grocers have a gluten free product list at their customer service desk that you can use to shop there. You can also call Safeway corporate toll-free 1-877-723-3929, and ask for Corporate Brands for their gluten free list (they will mail to you, or can email you a PDF).

Campbell's soups is in the process of updating their Gluten Free list, if you find and call their 800 number they will take down your address and send you one when it's ready. Hormel foods has a huge gluten free list online - I'm finding that many "brands" do have a listing (making my life so much easier! . So you can always email them or find a contact number on their web page to see if they've got a gluten-free list - and if not, they can tell you if a specific item is OK or not.

Hope that helps. I'm new to this, too. I keep finding more and more resources - it's getting easier.

This might help. I happened across this list that was published of items available in the Chicago area. While all these might not be available where you are, the list is pretty helpful. If the link doesn't open, try copying it and pasting it in your address bar.

Please note that the list of foods in the previous post, while helpful, is over 3.5 years old (published in March 2005). Be sure to always read the label.
