Several months back I contacted 3 manufacturers about their products that are sold at Costco and got no response from them. Today I went shopping at Costco and 2 of the 3 had the words gluten-free on the labels now! Yeah!(The 3rd one wasn't available.)

I think we should all contact Campbell's and beg them to make some gluten-free soups, using Rice Chex as an example of a manufacturer now getting thousands of new customers. We need cream soups for baking, tomato soup, and just about anything else! If enough of us ask, maybe they'll start thinking about the thousands of customers they're losing.

Yes! You're so right! We REALLY should! I keep hoping that General Mills will make corn Chex gluten-free too.

The new Cambell soups have some gluten-free options (healthy harvest?)

I just found the Zesty Azteca Meatball the other day, but haven't tried it yet. Up until now I've just been avoiding Campbell's altogether because every can I ever picked up had gluten in it.

Same here. This stuff was on sale, so for some reason I decided to look at it.

Just be careful if you are MSG sensitive thought because, although they say no MSG is added, they use autolyzed yeast which is MSG

Yes -- PLEASE tell us which products you found at Costco that were labeled gluten free! Thanks!

I don't remember off hand what the brands were. Two of the products that I called about were frozen fish entrees-the one that is gluten-free is a salmon with grill seasoning. The other is sliced turkey in a black plastic container with some sort of Italian looking label-Columbus is the name maybe. Sorry that doesn't help much. Our stock has run out and we need to get back, if we get back soon I'll try to check. Keep in mind that I checked and posted this thread in January. They still carry the two that were gluten-free though. There are several threads here if you do a search where many of us have listed gluten-free products from Costco.

Are you sure? Have you called them? Their gluten-free list from September does not list any gluten free soups.

The campbells cream of mushroom soup loss is a killer!

I was recently getting their recipe of the day emails before I was put on the gluten-free diet.

They sent me a questionaire and I gave the most honest negative responses possible when they asked why or why not.

Your soup products contain gluten and I'm not interested anymore.

I'm tellin ya - the NO CREAM OF MUSHROOM SOUP is killing me!

I used it to cook my liver in! (not eewww to everyone)

I did however manage to find that Imagine has a creamy mushroom soup that I'm excited to try for my next liver dinner.

I do still by V8 and V8 splash so that I can get my fruits and vegetables in at any given time along with my salad and gluten free ranch dressing.

But the soup thing - that hurt!

Anyone got a good gluten-free Mushroom soup recipe?

I guess something changed because the Corn Chex and Cinnamon Chex in my pantry both say gluten-free on the box. Thank god, cause corn chex was one of my favorite cereals.

      Hey there, have you been tested for allergies? You may not only have celiac disease but be allergic. I have celiac disease and am allergic to Barley, wheat and rye.

      I have osteopenia and have cracked three vertebrae.  Niacin is connected to osteoporosis! Do talk to your nutritionist and doctor about supplementing with B vitamins.  Blood tests don't reveal the amount of vitamins stored inside cells.  The blood is a transportation system and can reflect vitamins absorbed from food eaten in the previous twenty-four to forty-eight hours.  Those "normal limits" are based on minimum amounts required to prevent disease, not levels for optimal health.   Keep us posted on your progress.   B Vitamins: Functions and Uses in Medicine https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9662251/ Association of dietary niacin intake with osteoporosis in the postmenopausal women in the US: NHANES 2007–2018 https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11835798/ Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/   Nutritional Imbalances in Adult Celiac Patients Following a Gluten-Free Diet https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8398893/ Nutritional Consequences of Celiac Disease and Gluten-Free Diet https://www.mdpi.com/2036-7422/15/4/61 Simplifying the B Complex: How Vitamins B6 and B9 Modulate One Carbon Metabolism in Cancer and Beyond https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9609401/

      Thank you so much for the clarification! Yes to these questions: Have you consulted dietician?  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Osteoporosis? Thyroid? Anemia?  Do you take any supplements, or vitamins? I’m within healthy range for nutritional tests, thyroid and am not anemic. I do have osteopenia. I don’t take any medications, and the dietician was actually a nutritionist (not sure if that is the same thing) recommended by my physician at the time to better understand gluten free eating.    I almost wish the gluten exposure had triggered something, so at least I’d know what’s going on. So confusing!    Many thanks!

      @JudyLou,  I have dermatitis herpetiformis, too!  And...big drum roll... Niacin improves dermatitis herpetiformis!   Niacin is very important to skin health and intestinal health.   You're correct.  dermatitis herpetiformis usually occurs on extensor muscles, but dermatitis herpetiformis is also pressure sensitive, so blisters can form where clothing puts pressure on the skin. Elastic waist bands, bulky seams on clothing, watch bands, hats.  Rolled up sleeves or my purse hanging on my arm would make me break out on the insides of my elbows.  I have had a blister on my finger where my pen rested as I write.  Foods high in Iodine can cause an outbreak and exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. You've been on the gluten free diet for a long time.  Our gluten free diet can be low in vitamins and minerals, especially if processed gluten free foods are consumed.  Those aren't fortified with vitamins like gluten containing products are.  Have you consulted dietician?  Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Osteoporosis? Thyroid? Anemia?  Do you take any supplements, medicine, or vitamins? Niacin deficiency is connected to anemia.  Anemia can cause false negatives on tTg IgA tests.  A person can be on that borderline where symptoms wax and wane for years, surviving, but not thriving.  We have a higher metabolic need for more nutrients when we're sick or emotionally stressed which can deplete the small amount of vitamins we can store in our bodies and symptoms reappear.   Exposure to gluten (and casein in those sensitive to it) can cause an increased immune response and inflammation for months afterwards. The immune cells that make tTg IgA antibodies which are triggered today are going to live for about two years. During that time, inflammation is heightened.  Those immune cells only replicate when triggered.  If those immune cells don't get triggered again for about two years, they die without leaving any descendents programmed to trigger on gluten and casein.  The immune system forgets gluten and casein need to be attacked.  The Celiac genes turn off.  This is remission.    Some people in remission report being able to consume gluten again without consequence.   However, another triggering event can turn the Celiac genes on again.   Celiac genes are turned on by a triggering event (physical or emotional stress).  There's some evidence that thiamine insufficiency contributes to the turning on of autoimmune genes.  There is an increased biological need for thiamine when we are physically or emotionally stressed.  Thiamine cannot be stored for more than twenty-one days and may be depleted in as little as three during physical and emotional stresses. Mitochondria without sufficient thiamine become damaged and don't function properly.  This gets relayed to the genes and autoimmune disease genes turn on.  Thiamine and other B vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients are needed to replace the dysfunctional mitochondria and repair the damage to the body.   I recommend getting checked for vitamin and mineral deficiencies.  More than just Vitamin D and B12.  A gluten challenge would definitely be a stressor capable of precipitating further vitamin deficiencies and health consequences.   Best wishes!
