Gluten Free Shopping

Eating gluten free while always a challenge is becoming easier all the time. A variety of local stores and online shopping carry gluten free products.

It is becoming less of a challenge to determine which mainstream products are gluten free. See below for where you can obtain lists of mainstream gluten free products. You have to purchase some lists, while others can be downloaded for free.

The new labeling law that went into effect January 2006 also helps. Remember it only requires that wheat be labeled. A product could still have barley, rye or oats as an ingredient. This makes it possible that a product labeled "Wheat Free" will not necessarily be "Gluten Free".

Because manufacturers change product formulations all the time, it is best to read the label every time you use a product. Do so even if it was fine the last time you used it. If in doubt, do not use it.

The website Gluten Free in San Diego has some excellent pages of web links to mainstream manufacturer's gluten free lists , a list of the manufacturer's that declare all gluten (see above comment on wheat free versus gluten free.) and reading labels. Start on the "Products Update" page and go from there.

There are many places that you may purchase gluten free items. Here are some that we have visited and/or have come to our meetings in the past with samples. We do not recommend one over another, but provide this information so that you may find one that is close to you and work with them on items you would like to purchase:

Stores are now open in Norcross, Marietta, Midtown Atlanta, Roswell, Sandy Springs and Buckhead.See their website for addresses and maps. They carry a wide variety of gluten free, mostly their own store brand.

The nutritionist's hours are 10am - 3pm, Mon-Fri only, otherwise leave a message and they will get back to you. Have the product name, size and bar code number available. The nutritionist can also tell you if the product contains other allergens, you may be concerned about.THe number of specialty gluten free products, like Pamela's, Enviro Kids, etc varies between stores, so try more than one Kroger to see if they carry what you are looking for.

Ingles
www.ingles-markets.com

Ingles has three of lists on their website of interest to those eating gluten free. One list covers the Ingles store brand products that are gluten free . Another list gives the name brand products that are gluten free but it appears to be mostly a list of the products that are specifically made and labeled gluten free. It does not include "standard" name brand products like those made by Kraft, etc. For the "standard" name brands you still have to do your own research. The third list, contains the address of those Ingels stores with a gluten free section. Based on a blog post from Leah in June 2009 stating that 100 stores have a GF section, this list does not appear to be up to date as of early December 2009.

Since products change constantly make sure you read labels before using an individual product.

To download the latest list(s) in Word or .pdf formats go to the web page shown above and click on the appropriate link.

Clan ThompsonTM Celiac SmartListsTM*
