365 Brand Pumpkin

I really want to make some pumpkin pudding for Christmas, but when I was at the store they were all out of the Libby's plain canned pumpkin that I normally buy. I have a jar of 365 brand canned pumpkin in my pantry, but I've been avoiding eating it because it says "may contain traces of wheat" in small print on the back, and with the recent press about Whole Foods products, I've been wary to risk it. Anybody have any insight?

What kind of press has Whole Foods had lately? I'm sorry to change the subject of your post but I am concerned since I just went to Whole Foods today for the first time and purchased almost $100 worth of gluten free food. Is it not safe?

Whole foods hasnt had good press around their products labeled as having good segregation practices. But their gluten free food has not come into question and I actually just made some of their chocolate chip cookies. I also used their pumpkin this Christmas and haven't felt sick. I do not eat their food that has the labels "in same factory...but with good practices". Those foods aren't tested and so really you cant be sure. I'd say go for it with the pumpkin and their gluten-free labeled foods, thats just what im doing.

I'm sure the pumpkin is fine, especially since its now really that processed. However, I was less that thrilled with the flavor and texture. There is no substitute for Libby's for me. (my store was also out so I bought and used this).

I heard about the problems with Welshire that is sold at WF, but I hadn't heard about WF products. I had the gluten-free corn muffin mix without problem but seemed to react to their 365 chili, which has cornmeal in it. I'm not sure what was up with the chili but I was wondering if the cornmeal had CC, so to be safe I'm sticking with the other brands that I usually use. I have had problems with other brands that are labeled as described above.

I have used the pumpkin before in the past and it's not bothered me at all. I have a can left, so hopefully, all will go well. I would think as another poster said, it's not overly processed, so it's probably ok.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese s...

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Kirkland brand (at Costco) is gluten-free and is 2,000 IU.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Thanks a lot for your response! Can you maybe specify which kind of cheeses I should be cautious about? Camembert/Brie and blue cheeses (the molds of which are nowadays mostly grown on gluten-free media, though, so I've read, right?) or other ones as well? Also, I was under the impression that yeast is generally gluten-free if not declared otherwise...

      Hi @trents, yes I've had my levels checked in Dec 2025 which revealed vit D deficiency. I considered eggs although they only contain about 45 IU vitamin D/egg. I need 2000 IU vitamin D for maintenance as per my doctor. Although now, I likely need way more than that to treat the deficiency. My doctor has yet to advise me on dosing for deficiency. I've also...

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.

I've also considered cod liver oil, although again, if it's processed in a facility that has gluten, especially on flour form, I worried to test it, even if they have protocols in place to mitigate cross-contamination with gluten.
