Anyone know of any gluten-free peanut butters?

I use Kraft and Skippy.

Is Skippy peanut butter gluten-free?

Yes, all varieties of Skippy peanut butter, Roasted Honey Nut, and Reduced Fat peanut butter spread are gluten-free.

Kraft will clearly indicate gluten on the ingredient list.

The ones you would probably use are gluten-free: Skippy and Jif. Reese's pb is also gluten-free.

I only buy "natural" peanut butter (serveral brand carry them, but I get the store brand (Kroger), which has ONLY peanuts in it. I do not understand the need to dump all those additives in like the "normal" peanutbutter has.

I also eat natural pb now. I use Adam's. The only ingredient is peanuts. I'm the same way, if I can find a natural substitute that tastes good and isn't too expensive then I will use that. There are already too many additives and crap in everything we eat that I prefer to avoid as much as possible. After the pb sits for a while it gets an oily surface on top, but you just mix it in and it's fine.

I only buy Kroger natural peanut butter. Some of the "unnatural" kind are loaded with hydrogenated oils which are not good.

I've never heard of a peanut butter that isn't gluten-free.

Peanut Butter is so good for you :) :) :)

I just wanted to pass on a little info about it. I once went to a lecture by a woman who had written a fabulous health/dietary book (so fab that I can't actually remember what the book was :rolleyes: Sorry!) - anyway, she talked about peanut butter for a little while and suggested only buying Arrowhead Mills Valencia P/B because it doesn't contain aflatoxins (toxic mold that grows on peanuts here in America where they are grown in humid climates). She noted that everyone in Jimmy Carters family had cancer (caused by aflatoxins!) - so be careful about your peanuts! :)

p.s. This is the best tasting peanut butter I've ever had anyway! I've become a peanut butter snob and wont eat anything else :P

Wow...:o I didn't know that. I've never heard of that before.

Yeah, aflotoxin can be a problem if companies don't clean their peanuts, but they're all required to test for it.

I buy the Kraft crunch peanut butter (the one with the red label) - is that one gluten-free as well?

You know this is a really old thread? Anyway, I haven't seen PB with gluten. Remember, as is stated here often: Kraft will list any source of gluten (not just wheat) on its labels.

I know it's an old thread, but I'm new to gluten-free living. This place is a wealth of information for those of us who are new and trying to figure out what's ok and what's not. Thanks!

Just trying to warn you. Just because something had "gluten free" on it 5 years ago, doesn't mean it hasn't changed. The knowledge that Kraft lists all gluten containing ingredients clearly, helped me a lot at the grocery.

      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.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?
    • jenniber
      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.
