My daughter so wanted clam chowder today. I have read on here that Progresso will clearly list any source of gluten, so I picked up a can of Traditional New England Clam Chowder. Everything looked ok, but I have found several posts that say that the chunky is ok but the traditional is a no no. I tried calling Progress, but they are out for the weekend. Does anyone have a list of which soups are gluten free? Thanks!

I have not tried the Clam Chowder, but I prefer the homemade kind.

Can you list the ingrediences?

It does appear to be gluten free, although more like fish chowder than clam. :huh:

Next time, if you have some time try this:

Boil chopped-peeled potatoes in Swanson Chicken Broth (enough to cover potatoes)

Cook until tender and mash them up.

Add sauteed green peppers and onions.

Add canned or Jarred clams of chopped fresh.

Salt and pepper to taste.

Add half and half .....and serve.

It's easy and great with a Caesar salad in the winter time.

Thanks! Sounds good, much better than the canned stuff I'm sure. We will have to give that a try!

I eat their clam chowder on occasion with no problem. Your clam chowder reads just like mine.

I was so excited to read the label of the Progresso clam chowder and mushroom soup. I bought 2 cans of each. I started with the clam chowder. I got pretty sick. I thought, "well, not everything is related to celiac disease" so a couple of weeks later I tried the mushroom soup. Sick again. I am thinking there is some CC. I am done with Progresso. My advise is to make your own. Good luck!

Perhaps your problem is with the dairy in the soup and not a gluten issue. Many of us have had issues with dairy during our recovery.

Hi: I was at the Boston Children's Hospital Celiac Christmas Party yesterday and there was a vendor there that was giving out samples of their new gluten-free Clam Chowder and it was delish! I really couldn't tell that it was Gluten Free. The product is Kettle Cuisine and the chowder is only one of the new soups that are coming out. The woman said that they are in Whole Foods in the frozen section. Here is their link: Open Original Shared Link

Currently, they only appear to be in New England, but perhaps they will ship or expand into other parts of the country.

I had the same experience not too long ago and it turned out for me the problem was all the soy they put in their products. Before the soy issue came up I ate the mushroom soup all the time with no problems, like for 3 years. I miss it in my tuna noodle casserole.

ravenwoodglass and Momma Goose, Thanks for the suggestions. I can eat ice cream and other milk products without any reaction so although milk could be the culprit, I am just going to avoid the soup and stay blinded to anymore allergies. Same with soy. If it is the culprit I don't want to know. I just can't face eliminating anything else from my diet. There are not other soy products that have bothered me. I eat soybeans frequently without problems. However, I will let this rattle around in my brain for further use. If I have other reactions I will know where to look.

Thanks again.

      Waiting on Blood test results…

      By ChrisSeth · Posted

      Okay thanks Scott. So based on my results will they order more tests to be done? Kind of confused.

      Waiting on Blood test results…

      By ChrisSeth · Posted

      Hi thanks for your response! This is the only other info that’s on my test results for the IgA. The initial testing performed in the Celiac Disease Reflex Panel is the total IgA. If the total IgA is <10 mg/dL, the reflex tests that will be ordered are the Tissue Transglutaminase IgG Antibody and the Deamidated Gliadin Peptide IgG Antibody. If the total IgA is >=10 mg/dL, the reflex test that will be ordered is the Tissue Transglutaminase IgA Antibody. Does that give some insight?  following up with my Dr early next week… thanks again.  And I didn’t eat more gluten than usual during the last 6-8 weeks on purpose. Just a normal diet prior to testing. I had gluten everyday for 6-8 weeks though I’m sure.

      Have you tried sheep's milk and goat's milk cheeses? After my diagnosis I could not tolerate cow's milk for ~2 years until my villi healed, but for some reason I did not have issues with sheep milk or goat milk cheeses.  I also had temporary issues with chicken eggs, but could eat duck eggs.

      This is not a test for celiac disease, but your total IgA levels. This test is usually done with other celiac disease blood tests to make sure the results are accurate. Did they do a tTg-IgA test as well? Were you eating lots of gluten in the 6-8 weeks leading up to your blood tests? This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
