Helpful Info on Shopping for Gluten-Free Food

Over the past few years, the gluten-free diet has become more well known and as a result it is no longer necessary to shop exclusively at health food stores.   

Because labeling laws are soon changing, you will notice a lot of the products now say somewhere on the packaging if gluten is part of their product.  Many big brand name companies are creating or adjusting their products to be gluten-free.  Companies such as Betty Crocker are making cake mixes, a brownie mix, and cookie mix that are gluten-free.  Kellogg's Rice Krispies now come in a gluten-free variety.  General Mills Chex cereals have also changed a few of their cereals, not all, to be gluten-free.  Progresso brand of chicken, beef, and vegetable broths as well as many Boars Head deli meats are gluten-free as well.  Many grocery store chains now offer some of their own products gluten-free which can save you a lot of money. 

In the future we will see a huge growth in the market for gluten-free products whether it is name brand or store brand.

Remember to always read the labels!
