MEAT AND POULTRY
Meat and poultry are also naturally gluten free. Avoid breaded or fried meat, unless you know gluten free flour was used. Even with grilled or broiled meat or poultry, be sure it wasn’t cooked on the same surface or in the same oil use to cook the breaded items. Most commercially prepared gravy contains gluten. At home, you may grill, broil, stir fry, or roast your meat. If you make your own batter or gravy, use gluten free flour. As long as cooking methods or accompanying ingredients do not contain gluten, the following are safe:
- Beef
- Buffalo
- Chicken
- Duck
- Goat
- Goose
- Lamb
- Pork
- Rabbit
- Turkey
- Quail
- Veal
- Venison
Dairy and Eggs
Dairy and eggs are all gluten-free

- Butter (check for gluten containing additives)
- Cheese (except for blue cheese)
- Eggs
- Milk
- Yogurt (plain, unflavored)

Gluten Free Prepared Foods and Mixes
Just because you have to avoid gluten doesn’t mean you can’t have the occasional prepared or processed food. You can even eat bread, crackers, and pasta! As awareness about celiac disease and gluten issues grows, more and more companies are creating specialty gluten-free items. Here is a list of companies offering gluten free foods:
- 1-2-3 Gluten-Free
- Authentic Foods
- Barkat
- Cause You’re Special
- Chebe
- Cravings Place
- Deboles
- Don Pancho
- Dr. Schar
- Ener-G
- Glutano
- Gluten-Free Pantry
- Glutino
- La Tortilla Factory
- Pamela’s
- Perky’s Natural Foods
- Rustic Crust
- Yummy Earth
Please note that some companies manufacture both gluten free and “regular” food items, so you still need to check labels, visit the company’s website, or call the company. Some mainstream companies, such as Hormel and Kroger, also publish lists of their products that are gluten free.

I’ve been eating gluten-free for quite a few months now. I’m impressed by your list of gluten-free grains above. You don’t include gluten-free oats there. I wonder if gluten-free oats are really gluten-free? I heard that’s it’s just a different kind of gluten than the kind that is in wheat. Celiac sufferers may still be bothered by it, I understand.
Anyway, thanks for all the good info you’ve included here.
