Kraft is good at labeling ingredients in their products as is con agra and hormel. There might be others too. I believe all Boar's head is gluten-free but the slicers at some stores may be CC by other products. I have found pre-packaged applegate (we buy the turkey) at whole foods. The best thing to do is look on the company's websites, usually in the FAQ section.

Hormel Naturals line has a roast beef. I eat it all the time. It is labeled gluten free on the back. It is with the other packaged lunch meats at the store and it comes in a zip lock type bag in a brown box. It's easy to find

Boar's Head. All of their products are gluten free and SO good. Minimally processed and preserved. A little expensive but definitely worth it.

General Mills and Unilever also explicitly label any gluten source.

Con Agra, General Mills, Kraft and Unilever own many brands that you might not immediately associate with them. But somewhere on the package you should find the ultimate owner.

A few brands they own that come to mind: VH, Lipton, Knorr, Bovril, Oscar Mayer, Green Giant, Cadbury, Nabisco, Jacobs, Planters, Maxwell House, Philadelphia, Becel, Hellmann's, Imperial, Wish-Bone, and Ragu. There are many more.

Read the label ingredients list.

Back to the original question. If the broth contains wheat, then as a top allergen it must be explicitly identified in both Canada and the United States. I can't imagine why rye or oats would be in broth. Even barley doesn't make sense to me.

This really shocked me. I am so glad really that we don't get all of the info about what we can't eat upfront, because it's just too overwhelming. But I'm so glad to know this. I asked the deli guy if he could clean the blade and he was glad to, but then I saw how much trouble it was and just asked if I could buy the entire thing of meat that was still wrapped. He said sure. It was expensive, but not as expensive overall as the Applegate products. Glad to know about Boar's Head. I love this site.

I found some Oscar Mayer Carving Board roast beef that is gluten free and very good!!! It's in the regular lunch meat section and you don't have to fool with the deli slicer.

Boar's Head--gluten-free and good. Ask the deli person to wipe the blade before cutting yours. Just a thought! :)

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

      By Jane02 · Posted

      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 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.

      Welcome to celiac.com, @Jane02! Have you had your serum D levels checked for deficiency/sufficiency? What about cod liver oil? Egg yolks can also be a good source of vitamin D.

      Hello, I'm very discouraged. I've been trying to find a safe vitamin mineral supplement brand for months and am tired of testing one after the other and experiencing my typical 'glutening' reactions. I'm really feeling the nutritional deficiencies set in. I'm doing the best I can to get these nutrients from my food, although it's impossible for me to intake enough vitamin D as I can't have dairy and have insufficient sun exposure in the northern hemisphere. I've tried B Complex from Country Life (certified gluten-free) - horrible reaction. I've tried Metagenics vitamin D tab (certified glute-free) - bad reaction. I've tried liquid vitamin D Thorne and D Drops - reactions were mild since I tried a drop of a drop. I understand there could be other things I'm reacting to in my diet, although my diet/intake is pretty consistent with minimal variables so I do think it's something in these supplements. I understand I could be reacting to the active ingredient vitamin/mineral itself or even the filler ingredients. I tried the vitamin D drops since the only filler ingredient is coconut oil, in some brands, which I know I can tolerate really well on its own - I cook with coconut oil frequently and have no 'glutening' reactions at all. Perhaps I'm reacting to the vitamin D itself, although I eat fatty fish every few days, an entire fillet with no 'glutening' reactions, which contains anywhere between 400-600 IU per fillet so I shouldn't be sensitive to vitamin D. All this to say, I'm desperately looking for at least a safe vitamin D supplement. Does anyone know of a safe vitamin D supplement brand? I'd love to know if there are any supplement brands that have absolutely no gluten (especially in flour form) in their facilities. I've heard of Kirkman having no grains in their facility - I may try this brand. Has anyone reacted to this brand?

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      By Matthias · Posted

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.
