Ham

Hi all,

I'm experimenting with split pea soup (sounds yucky, but it might provide some nutrition). :lol: So, I need some ham to put in it. Does anyone know of a gluten-free brand?

The recipe says that I can either put ham chunks in it, or a ham bone in it. Is it safe to just request a ham bone from the grocery store butcher? I'm confused. :huh:

TIA!

Many hams have additives, especially if you get the ones with honey or brown sugar in them. Your best bet is to verify with the "manufacturer" whether their meat has additives that contain gluten. A quick phone call by you or your butcher should give you the info you need.

I bought a ham this week that has gluten in it. I was shocked. I'd never gotten a ham with gluten before. Thank God I read the ingredients.

My beloved Hormel company makes a few canned products that are gluten-free.

Hormel Chunk Meats: Ham

Amoung most of the others, this is gluten-free, I've used a variety of these chunked canned items, as it can be helpful to have a can of chicken or turkey available, when making some type of soup, and then you realize you are all out of the fresh stuff.

The Black Label and Cure 81, Canned Hams are also gluten-free

Hormel would be the easiest to find, but Wellshire farms makes great gluten-free hams. They have a website and you can order directly from them. Some stores, like Harry's and Wholefoods carry this brand as well. Good luck. Soup is so great for our lunches!

I like the Hormel Cure 81 Hame.

I usually put a glaze of honey over myself and bake it.

Or you can just unwrap it and eat it on sandwiches. Either way, it is pretty darn good ham......

It is in the meat case at most grocery stores near the other "large Hams".....you can buy it in the 5 lb version or the smaller .5 - 1.5 lb block...

I am lucky enough to live in a rural area and just buy a whole hog! :D I have it butchered the way I want, and make sure it is cured and processed gluten-free. Do you have that option? Most meat processing stores carry extra meat you can buy from them without buying a whole hog or cow. Yummy!!!

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
