Some Progresso Soups Are Gluten Free!

I have missed my canned soups...and Progresso was one of my favorites. I bet most of you know this, but just in case, they actually SAY gluten free on them!! I dunno about all of you, but I feel so much better buying something that says on it, gluten free. I started my gluten free diet back in Nov. 09 and it's been a hard road, but I have been successful so far staying away. I was so happy when I randomly picked up the can of Rich and Hearty New England Clam Chowder and say my favorite words "gluten free". I have been eating Kettle Cuisine frozen soups, very good, but very expensive. I am so happy and had to share!! Apparently, from the looks on their site, there are quite a few soups that are gluten free. This site has been so helpful to me in my quest for gluten free-ness so I have to share my happy moments for those who may be having a hard time like I was...It's not easy, but it gets better every day! Thanks for reading!!

As a recently diagnosed celiac, this is very good news. Thanks for posting. :)

While I have not yet been officially diagnosed (endoscopy/biopsy scheduled for April 9), I have already tried the Creamy Mushroom and Split Pea w/Ham, both of which say gluten free on the label. The Creamy Mushroom is part of the Vegetable Classics line and is so yummy. I've gotten it on special occcasionally at 10/$10 at a local grocery store.

While the can I have doesn't say gluten free, the Chicken & Wild Rice appears to be gluten free.

The split pea and ham is quite delicious. Some of the new V-8 soups are glutenfree, as well. They are wicked expensive, though, so I only buy them when I have a coupon.

Just went to the Progresso website. Left a comment to thank them for labeling gluten-free & asked if some of the other soups might be labeled like that in the future. Let you know if I hear anything back.

Got this response back already. It seems reasonable.

Thank you for contacting us about gluten in Progresso soup.

General Mills offers several products that are labeled gluten-free. Please check the package label for the gluten-free statement on the front/side/back of the package. Only products that can be verified to be gluten free will be declared as gluten free on the label. It is important to check the product label each time you purchase a product because it has the most accurate information about the product in the package. You can also visit our website www.liveglutenfreely.com for gluten free product information and list.

Because we constantly strive to improve our products′ quality and nutritional value, the most up-to-date product information is on the package the product is purchased in. For that reason, we do not distribute product information lists as they could quickly become outdated.

For products not labeled gluten free, we will always declare gluten containing ingredients if they are added to the product. If the ingredient declaration lists wheat, oats, barley, rye, or derivatives of these grains, then the product contains gluten. Examples of derivative ingredients include: malt, barley malt, organic malt, semolina, Durham, triticale, and spelt. We do not include gluten containing ingredients in the ′Natural Flavors′ or ′Spices′ on the product ingredient list. If there are gluten ingredients in our products, those ingredients are always clearly listed.

If there are no gluten- containing ingredients listed in the product ingredient label, but the product does not make a gluten free claim, it is because we cannot fully assure that this product is gluten free. While we have not added gluten-containing ingredients, factors such as sourcing, conditions of manufacture, etc. do not allow us to provide the full level of assurance that a gluten free claim requires.

      Hi,  My 7 year daughter has complained of this in the past, which I thought were part of her glutening symptom, but more recently I have come to figure out it's part of her histamine overload symptom. This one symptom was part of her broader profile, which included irritability, extreme hunger, confusion, post-nasal drip. You might want to look up "histamine intolerance". I wish I had known of this at the time of her diagnosis, life would have been much easier.  I hope you are able to figure out.

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.
