If you are just starting, let me warn you. There is a lot of conflicting information floating around. Common sense is one of your best weapons. Some canned meats do have gluten added (of course, the meat it self is gluten free). Read all labels.

I eat Member's Mark chicken all the time with no ill effects. I use it in chicken a la king, pot pies, casseroles etc.

Sweeping generalizations are always suspect. I am sure that there are some canned meat products with gluten in them, and that there are also many that are gluten-free. Read the label carefully.

Never seen a plain canned chicken that has gluten. I know this is a generalization, but I've been gluten-free for more than 8 years now.

If you are unsure after reading the label, call the company.

We usually by the Costco brand.

Hormel is labeled gluten-free and can be found at Walmart (mine at least)

Costco's Kirkland brand canned chicken is gluten free. I have contacted them and it is gluten free. We eat it all the time with no problems.

Good luck!

So, is Costco (Kirkland brand) gluten free??

This thread is about 2 years old. So re- check any info about gluten-free food. Products change & reading labels is still the best thing to do.

I just bought Progresso Lentil Soup at Dollar Tree with an expiration date of 2013. The can wasn't bent, either, so I was happy to get it for a dollar. It's labeled gluten-free on the front.

      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.
