Is Jimmy Dean Breakfast Bowl gluten-free?

Yes I know better and should have called first. But....I was hungry and in a rush..... I had bought the Jimmy Dean breakfast bowl (eggs, bacon, and cheese) for a quick and easy breakfast. I have not had a chance to call them yet. I thought Jimmy Dean had good labeling practices and there were no gluten items listed in the label. There was something suspect like dextrose or maladextrin....Anyway I got sick. It's a few days later now and my stomach still feels like it was used for a punching bag. Just wanted to know if the breakfast bowl was the item or if I have to look harder.

I'm going to resurrect this thread because I'd like to know the answer.

It's gluten-free, although not the one with pancakes, of course.

Jimmy Dean is part of Sara Lee, which has good gluten free labeling practices (no hidden gluten) http://www.glutenfreeinsd.com/manufacturers_statements2.html

According to the ingredients, it is gluten free

I have been eating Jimmy Deans breakfast bowls and the entrees forever now, and i have never had any reaction at all. It must have been something else you ate.

Has anyone spoken with the company because I have one in my freezer I was about to eat till I saw MODIFIED FOOD STARCH. Also does anyone know about the Aunt Jemima Breakfast bowls? :huh: This is still all new to me, I hear to look for carmel color also, is that always gluten?

lovegrov Collaborator

Caramel color is safe.

If it says modified food starch but doesn't list wheat, it's going to be safe.

I know this thread is eight years old, but I'm bringing it back because ingredients have (very likely) changed since 2009.

Jimmy Dean breakfast bowls still don't list gluten, wheat, etc.

But they did give my mom and I terrible stomachaches. I know the scientific method calls for repeat experiments but we don't really feel like it.

However, I will say we usually stick to a strict gluten-free diet (only eat if it states gluten-free or if there's no way it contains gluten; fruit, veggies, etc) So it's extremely unlikely it was anything else.

These were just a risk we took because there's so few explicitly gluten-free quick meals- we both work long-hour jobs and have school so quick meals are very helpful.

TL;DR: They are very likely NOT gluten-free. Just because it doesn't say gluten/wheat in the ingredients doesn't mean it's not present. Call me paranoid, but I feel it's a good rule.

These are definitely not gluten free! I wish I could pin point which ingredient has the gluten! 

I ate this yesterday and it made me super sick, I also woke up today with bad brain fog which I haven't experienced before. Be careful guys! Even my gluten free app told me this product was gluten free :(

yes, but the ratio of potatoes is too much for me

Shared equipment and facility, they also makes bowls with gluten biscuits etc. in them......same machinery just a different run and they do not cater to the gluten free community so they do not try to be careful avoiding contamination.

The Jimmy Dean products that are gluten free will actually say GLUTEN FREE on them. If they don't say gluten free on them then the company says they are not gluten free.

      Great question! To make it easier for our customers, any of our gluten-free products will have "gluten-free" on the package's label. I hope this helps!

    This is one of their sausages that is gluten free & it is marked so. Look to the left of the nutrition information underneath the ingredients list. There is a bit of a blank space & then you see the words GLUTEN FREE.
    We buy these & eat them but none of the others say gluten free.

Although gluten free, it could be the other products on the bowl which are making your stomachs hurt...such as the bacon grease, the preservatives in the ham, the starch from the potatoes, or perhaps the eggs?

Gluten is only part of the story...

      From the article you linked: "Currently, there are no recommended methods to test for non-celiac gluten sensitivity." "No recommended methods" is the key phrase here. Just on the anecdotal evidence of reading many posts on this forum, I think we sometimes see some elevated igg test scores with NCGS. They seem to be mildly elevated in these cases, not high high.

      Thank you for your reply. I’m beginning to think of iodine as another culprit in this, as much as I fear it. I will say my rash is extreme and diffuse - it’s everywhere! I first had it on both sides of my neck in the summer of 2023. My PCP and dermatologist at the time, thought it was a reaction to jewelry I was wearing, even though I had been wearing the same necklaces for literally years with no reaction. The dermatologist at the time repeated over and over again that “allergies are acquired.” Which I knew. But I was not reacting to any other jewelry I was wearing. So it didn’t make any sense to me that it would only be from my necklaces. Anyway, it abated on it’s own. Only to come back with a vengeance months later - and I had not worn any necklaces at all. And the rash involved more area. I was put on Prednisone (oral steroid) taper and it worked well, and the itch and eventually the rash went away. Another trip to a different dermatologist at that time, prior to starting the Prednisone, told me to change all of my hygiene products like soap and shampoo, and to slather on Vaseline. None of which worked, hence the Prednisone. Needless to say, the itch and subsequent rash returned - and now spread everywhere, not just the hollows on both sides of my neck. It’s there, on my upper chest and left breast, both upper arms front and back, and elbows, my entire back, down both of my hips and buttocks and the front of my right thigh. Now the back of that right thigh is starting to itch as well. Also my lower right forearm and middle knuckle on my left hand since going gluten free. I’m just itching everywhere all the time. It keeps me awake, or wakes me up when I do fall asleep. I’m trying my best not to scratch, but it’s nearly impossible! I’ve been using a dry washcloth to rub instead of scratching. And I have used cool wet washcloths which help, but only lasts for a few minutes before starting up again. I’m pretty much at my wit’s end. Just waiting for something to indicate what’s really going on so I can do SOMETHING to stop it!

      Reply to Russ H, Thank you for your input. As a nurse for 46 years I was aware of much of this. However, as a new member to dermatitis herpetiformis, I have been reading and researching everything I can about it in order to educate and help myself. I was hoping that the oral Dapsone would help to alleviate the itching. I knew the rash would take longer to abate. Instead of relief from the Dapsone, I had adverse reactions so had to stop it. After 2 months on it, if hadn’t helped with the itching at all, and I understand it usually helps in the first few days if it’s going to. My itch and rash actually got worse on the Dapsone and with going gluten free - which lead me to question whether I was getting glutined from other products I am using. It’s like a huge puzzle trying to put all these pieces together to somehow make it fit and make sense. Right now, myself and my doctor are perplexed.
