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.

Great! Thank you all! Should definitely be able to find some now.

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! :)

      Thanks, I’m still dealing with the pain and tingling and itching and feeling like bugs or something crawling around on my face and scalp. It’s been a miserable experience. I saw my eye doc last week, the eye itself was okay, so they didn’t do anything. I did take a 7 day course of an antiviral. I’m hoping for a turnaround soon! My life is full of stress but I have been on / off the gluten free diet for the last year , after being talked into going back on gluten to have a biopsy, that looked okay. But I do have positive antibody levels that have been responsive  to a gluten free diet. I can’t help but wonder if the last year has caused all this.

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time. Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      What is the best gluten free scanner app? I have the "gluten-free Scanner" app. I scanned an almond joy and it says it contains gluten when the package is labeled gluten free

      Certainly, it would b wise to have a gene test done if your physician is open to it as it would provide some more data to understand what's going on. But keep in mind that the genetic test for celiac disease cannot be used as to diagnose celiac disease, only to establish the potential to develop active celiac disease. About 40% of the general population possess one or both of the primary genes known to be associated with the development of active celiac disease but only about 1% of the population actually develop active celiac disease. So, the gene test is an effective "rule out" tool but not an effective diagnostic tool.
