gluten-free Chicken Salad/pimento Cheese - Available Commerically?

Does anyone know of any commercially made gluten-free chicken salads or pimento cheese spreads? We are going camping over the next couple of weeks and I would like some easy sandwich/cracker/chip toppers that I don't have to make myself. Yes, that sounds lazy but I am already prepping 15 days worth of dinners and breakfasts for 6 - 9 people and something has just got to be easy.

Any help would be appreciated, or if you have other easy lunch type ideas that would be great too.

You may find this link to Hormels gluten-free website helpful. There is quite a bit you can likely find that will make life easier.

Anyone?

Just check your ingredients. Kraft products will clearly list any gluten. I don't think I've ever seen a pimento cheese spread that has gluten and rarely have I seen chicken salad with it. Same with egg salad and tuna salad.

Publix premade chicken salad in the deli area is listed as gluten free on their "gluten-free Products List".

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
