Wanted to share that I recently discovered the Great Value chicken and rice soup at Walmart. It is gluten free, yummy (at least for canned soup), and it is only 50 cents per can.

Anyone else discovered great gluten-free deals at walmart?

Be a little wary of the Great Value items at Walmart. I have called them several times and have been given a similar statement on a couple of occasions that they change vendors regularly and cannot guarantee that what is gluten-free this week will still be gluten-free with the next shipment. Target makes a similar statement about theirs. Walmart has the best prices on canned goods of any place in the Atlanta area. I go there specifically to purchase even my name brand canned items. Now if I could only get out of there without buying anything but those canned goods, I'd be doing well.

Note that the Progresso soups that are gluten-free are only $1.50 a can at Walmart vs $2.49 per can at "that other store down the street". That is a significant savings when you purchase enough for a month at a time.

I'm curious how you even go ahold of them to find out. I was given the name of a lady and told that if I made a list of what I wanted to know was gluten-free she would get back with me. I wrote her several times and never heard a thing back. I gave up on trying to contact anyone from wal-mart.

Our local Wal Mart carries a gluten-free cookie, made in Ireland I believe, sorry - I can't remember the name. They were next to the Newman's Own cookies in the cookie isle. I didn't like them because they had coconut in them, but my mom, who also has celiac, loved 'em. She went back to more ($2.74 a box, raspberry, ginger or lemon) and found the ginger cookies were clearence priced at .75! She bought three more boxes! :)

Found it. Sunstart Bakery (sunstartbakery.com) on their website they have a long list of all the Wal Marts that stock their cookies.

      Celiac getting dentures

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.

      Chances of being coeliac

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's most likely going to be a celiac disease diagnosis based on your blood test results, but wait for your doctor to give you a green light for going gluten-free, as they may want to do additional testing. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      Chances of being coeliac

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Welcome @JoJo0611. That is a valid question.  Unfortunately the short answer is slim to none.  Be proactive, when the diagnosis process is completed, start GFD.  Remember also that the western diet is deficient in many nutrients that governments require fortification.  Read the side of a breakfast cereal box. Anti-tTG antibodies has superseded older serological tests It has a strong sensitivity (99%) and specificity (>90%) for identifying celiac disease. A list of symptoms linked to Celiac is below.  No one seems to be tracking it, but I suspect that those with elevated ttg, but not diagnosed with Celiac Disease, are diagnosed with celiac disease many years later or just die, misdiagnosed.  Wheat has a very significant role in our economy and society.  And it is addictive.  Anti-tTG antibodies can be elevated without gluten intake in cases of other autoimmune diseases, certain infections, and inflammatory conditions like inflammatory bowel disease. Transient increases have been observed during infections such as Epstein-Barr virus.Some autoimmune disorders including hepatitis and biliary cirrhosis, gall bladder disease. Then, at 65 they are told you have Ciliac Disease. Milk protein has been connected to elevated levels.   Except for Ireland and New Zealand where almost all dairy cows are grass fed, commercial diaries feed cows TMR Total Mixed Rations which include hay, silage, grains and concentrate, protein supplements, vitamins and minerals, byproducts and feed additives. Up to 80% of their diet is food that cannot be eaten by humans. Byproducts of cotton seeds, citrus pulp, brewer’s grains (wheat and barley, rye, malt, candy waste, bakery waste. The wheat, barley and rye become molecules in the milk protein and can trigger tTg Iga in persons suseptible to Celiac. I can drink Grass fed milk, it tastes better, like the milk the milkman delivered in the 50's.  If I drink commercial or Organic milk at bedtime I wake with indigestion.

      Dedicated gluten-free Restaurants in East Bay (near San Francisco):

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      I strongly recommend 2 dedicated gluten free (gluten-free) restaurants in my area (East Bay of San Francisco Bay Area) (2025) -- Life is Sweet Bakery and Café in Danville. I've been a few times with friends and tried multiple entrees and salads. All very good and worth having again. I've also tried a number of their bakery goods. All extremely good (not just "good for gluten-free"). https://lifeissweetbakeryandcafe.com/ -- Kitara Kitchen in Albany (they have additional locations). I've been once and had the "Buritto Bowl". Six individual items plus a sauce. Outstanding. Not just "for gluten-free", but outstanding in its own right. Vibrant flavors, great textures. I can't wait to go back. https://www.kitava.com/location/kitava-albany/
