Gluten Free Products List

 Q. What can you eat on a gluten free diet?

I began compiling this gluten free product list a few weeks ago. Though it is not completed, and never will be, I thought I would publish it before it is outdated, though I’ve included many links for you to double check. I will continue to add additional items each week as I run across them. I hope you find this list useful.

These items were gluten-free the last time I checked. Always check labels and/or with manufacturers before consuming.  Somehow all of the links disappeared from this list. I am slowly adding them back. It is always best to check links to find the latest information. In addition, many links are no longer active. Sometimes manufacturers decide that it is too great a legal liability to state which products are gluten free. Often times, ingredients change in products.

You may be keeping up with my post, “Celiac: Foods to Avoid“. I will continue to update that list as I think of more items or as I run across them online. But enough already with what you cannot eat! Let’s move on to answering the question, “What can you eat on a gluten-free diet!”

Cross-contamination

Though some products may be labeled gluten-free, you should be aware that it may be made in a factory which processes other products that do contain gluten.  The new labeling regulations requiring no more than 20-ppm gluten in a gluten-free product. If you are highly sensitive to gluten look for the certified gluten-free product symbols.

Gluten-Free Certification Organization (GFCO, a subsidiary of Gluten Intolerance Group of North America (GIG), “assures that the product contains less than 10-ppm gluten (5-ppm gliadin)…” Visit the GFCO website for more information.

If you see the below seal on a package, it represents the National Celiac Association’s logo (formerly run by CSA (Celiac Sprue Association, which was disillusioned in 2017 ). This logo represents that the product has been tested to be below 5-ppm gluten. You may learn about their certification process at National Celiac Association’s at Gluten-Free Recognition Seal Program.

  1. Just found out i have celiac and on top of that Lactose intolerance. Basically i really cant eat much and i seem to find all this so overwhelming….But i do love ur site and ur recipe box….Thanks for the help!!!! Especially when im trying to figure this all out

  2. Thank you for this list. Fortunately I do not have a gluten allergy (that I know of) lol but I do want to make some changes in my diet. I was wondering what the best flour substitute for baking would be? As the holidays approach I would like to make some gluten free cookies this year. Thanks again!

  3. Wow Carla if you not married, I’m available…:-). By far the most comprehensive Gluten-Free website I’ve viewed to date. Thank you, my wife has just recently discovered she is wheat intolerant, eho knew! Anyway we’ll be using this recipes a many. Dinner is at 6:00 pm

  4. Excuse me, but the Allergen Warning on the side of Great Value Instant Potatoes DOES list WHEAT along with like 10 other possible contaminants. As far as I am concerned, this makes this product unsafe. MOST GREAT VALUE PRODUCTS list wheat as an ALLERGEN WARNING. I was most upset when I found this out. I just went Gluten Free 3 weeks ago, I’m still learning, but the biggest lesson I am learning is that Great Value must be thoroughly checked. I don’t understand how the “trace amounts” issue thing works, but I do know that if it is enough to be listed as a warning then its enough for me to say NO to.

  5. Just double checking about Philadelphia cream cheese for my cheesecakes-absolutely Gluten-free? I’m very new at this and a little overwhelmed…LOL! Thanks GFRB staff…love your site. xoxo ;-)

  6. Thank you for this list! I really appreciate it. I wanted to add that Cheetos brand snacks are gluten-free, per the company. Also, Mike’s Hard Lemonades are gluten-free, all flavors. The company says they are tested after processing. Keep up the good work. Tonight’s dinner is your sausage with brown rice and peppers!

  7. this is a great list of gluten free I was wondering if there is a list of gluten and cow dairy free
    products, which I personally need.

    thank you

  8. You have to try the foods by george pizza and then you can add it to you GF pizza list… oh my gosh..even my non GF grandkids love it and ask for it…It is absolutely delicious and the best GF pizza I have had.

    1. Thank you Loise. I see that you carry gluten-free as well as gluten products. Does this mean that they are not made in a dedicated gluten-free facility? If not, do you test for gluten?

  9. Thank you for creating this list.

    Hilshire Farms has many gluten-free cold cuts, and their smoked sausage is also gluten-free. Sugardale offers gf hams, hotdogs and bacon.
    And although it is a regional grocery chain, Giant Eagle has an extensive listing of its gluten free products on its website
