Meat and Proteins
As with all my shopping lists, these were current in Canada at the time of printing. PLEASE check your own preferred products’ manufacturing information.
Sausages, and Prepared Meats:
Be Careful with these!!!
- Butchers Choice (at Superstore) breakfast sausages, flavored sausages, and
- Freybe’s prepared meats & sausages are all gluten free (in Canada).
- Top Dogs Original Hot Dogs are gluten-free
- Some Grimme’s and all Freybe’s wieners are gluten free
Caution: wieners, hot dogs, sausages, marinated meats, seasoned/smoked/cured meat
Chicken, Turkey, Pork, Beef, Salmon -
All our frozen meat products are packaged without gluten. Some chicken packagers use collagen before freezing.
- skinless boneless chicken breasts, individually quick-frozen
- pork tenderloin
- pork & beef roast
- pork ribs
- whole frying chicken
- beef steaks
- ground meats (NOT hamburger patties)
- salmon and frozen fish
- chicken legs back attached, unseasoned
Caution: Watch for ‘seasoned’ meat, marinades, sauces, creams, or other condiments in pre-seasoned meat, or prepared meat. These nearly always contain gluten.
Beans:
Heinz and Campbells, and Kraft all claim to write every ingredient or risk of cross-contamination in clear language on their labels.
- Heinz’, or President’s Choice, or No Name brown beans in tomato sauce
- kidney beans
Caution: anything with teriyaki sauce, soy sauce or cream sauces are highly likely to be contaminated.
Canned Meats:
- light tuna packed in water
- cocktail shrimp pieces
Nuts & Tofu:
Caution: Seasoned nuts often contain gluten.
- No Name, Seasoned Dry Roasted Peanuts (UPC: 129217)
I have checked some dessert tofu, and it has been gluten free – so read the labels, and call the manufacturers.
