Updated List Of Gluten Free Turkeys


Kelly C.

Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone,

I'm in the process of figuring out the menu and shopping list for Thanksgiving, and I was wondering if anyone has or knows of a recently updated list of gluten free turkeys? I think Shadybrook farms Turkeys were gluten free as of last year. Are there any others?

Thank you!

I'm not saying that every turkey in the world is gluten-free, but in 7 years, I've never seen one that isn't. Anyway, there's one easy way to tell -- read the ingredients. Under USDA law, any grain of any kind would have to be listed.

I just called Butterball, while I didn't ask about their whole turkeys specifically, I called about their frozen boneless turkey breasts (which I found out are gluten free).

The most exciting part is they told me they are changing out their gravy packets that come with- to RICE FLOUR instead of wheat!! As long as the gravy ingredients say rice flour instead of wheat, they are gluten free now!!!

This makes for a happier Thanksgiving!

Wow! Great info! Thanks Maddycat! That's really exciting about the gravy! It's funny - pre diagnosis I never would have thought I'd be excited about gravy! But since being diagnosed and gluten free for 2+ years, I get excited with each new gluten free find!

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
