I've been getting terrible stomaches lately and wondering if anyone knows if these products from Costco are gluten free...

Kirkland Signature Extra Lean Ham lunch meat

Kirkland chunk canned chicken breast

I wrote costco and never heard back.

Also in terms of spices

Old Bay? does anyone know if its Gluten free for sure.

Are there any spices that you stay away from or have caused stomach issues even if they should be gluten-free?

I've wondered if its soy or lactose but have cut out both for a few weeks seperate of each other and nothing changed so I'm now looking into all the foods I'm eating wondering if I'm getting contamination somewhere.

Thanks so much for any guidance anyone can provide!

Old Bay is gluten-free. Here's the link to the McCormick (company that owns Old Bay) FAQ question:

Open Original Shared Link

Also keep in mind that this only applies to the original Old Bay, not the variations (I contacted them about this last Fall to clarify).

I can vouch for the Kirkland canned chicken breast. I am pretty sensitive and have not been glutened by it. I've eaten many cans.

AmyNColorado.... my fellow Colorado carnivorous friend:

I literally buy both of those on my near-weekly Costco shopping trips. Rest assured, they are 100% gluten free.

I also wanted to let you know that one of the senior buyers in our Costco region is gluten intolerant. We have an ally in our court!

In fact, she was personally responsible for bringing Rudi's into our whole region -- as she saw this trend/demand coming a long time ago.

I still can't find the Rudi's at the Aurora Costco...is it in the frozen section?

Thank god for Vitamin Cottage. Reasonably priced and caring local chain. Check it out!

The Arvada Costco had it in the frozen section this past Saturday (2 pack). From my understanding (from the actual buyer at Costco) is that Rudi's is in ALL buildings in this particular region (CO, NM, AZ, UT, NV,& San Diego region).

I can get you the item number when I get home tonight and you can bring it up to the manager.

      My reaction to a gluten bolus exposure is similar to yours, with 2-3 hours of severe abdominal cramps and intractable emesis followed by several hours of diarrhea. I don't necessarily equate that one large exposure to gluten with significant intestinal lining damage, however. I think it's just a violent reaction to a what the body perceives to be a somewhat toxic substance that I am no longer tolerant of because I have quit exposing myself to it regularly. It's just the body purging itself of it rather than an expression of significant damage. Before diagnosis, when I was consuming gluten daily, I had little to no GI distress. I was, for the most part, a "silent celiac". The damage to my small bowel lining didn't happen all at once but was slow and insidious, accumulating over a period of years. The last time I got a big shot of gluten was about three years ago when I got my wife's wheat biscuits mixed up with my gluten-free ones. There was this acute reaction after about two hours of ingestion as I described above. I felt washed out for a few days and fully recovered within a week or so.  Now, I'm a 74-year-old male. So, I'm not worried about being pregnant. And I don't want to contradict your physicians advice. But I just don't think you have done significant damage to your small bowel lining by one episode of significant gluten ingestion. I just don't think it works that way.

      Wondering about some thoughts on how long to wait to try to get pregnant after a gluten exposure?  I have been diagnosed for 10 years and have followed the diet strictly. I have been cross contaminated before, but have never had a full on gluten exposure. I went to a restaurant recently, and the waiter messed up and gave me regular bread and told me it was gluten free. 2 hours later I was throwing up for the whole evening. I have never had that kind of reaction before as I have never had such a big exposure. My husband and I were planning to start trying to get pregnant this month. My dr did blood work to check for electrolytes and white blood cells, but did not do a full nutritional panel. Most of my GI symptoms have resolved in the past 2 weeks, but I am definitely still dealing with brain fog, fatigue and headaches. My dr has recommended I wait 3 months before I start to try to get pregnant.   I have read else where about how long it can take for the intestine to fully heal, and the impacts gluten exposure can have on pregnancy. I guess I am really wondering if anyone has had a similar experience? How long does it take to heal after 1 exposure like that, after following the diet so well for 10 years? Is 3 months an okay amount of time to wait? Is there anything I can do in the meantime to reduce my symptoms?

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!
