I just bought a Kirkland hickory Smoked Spiral Ham. It looked OK by the ingredients, not sure about the glaze. It looks like it is just brown sugar. Anyway...does anyone know for sure if it is Gluten Free? Anyone ate it before? Thanks Jodie

If you can post the ingredients, perhaps someone can verify the gluten status for you.

It does not indicate any gluten. By law, if is contained wheat it would have to be listed.

If you don't feel comfortable with the pre-prepared glaze, a homemade glaze can be used:

Brown Sugar

Can of crushed pineapple with juice

Cinnamon

Cloves....heat to blend ingredients and glaze ham while baking.

That ham just got added to my "What I need to bring for Christmas" list. I was hoping it was gluten free too. Is it the ham in the red and gold foil?

I would hope that they are the same at all Costco's.

Last year we had that ham. The ham itself was gluten-free, but the glaze that you add later was NOT. But that was last year...

For the record, I ate the Kirkland ham for Christmas and I am NOT sick -- so I guess it is safe to say it is safe!

I did attack the ham first, and I filled up a large Ziplock before anyone else got their gluteny hands on it or passed their bread or pie over it :P

i was so excited today when we walked into Sam's Club. As soon as we walked thru the door, there was a cooler full of Ridge Creek spiral cut honey hams. It said right on the big sign "GLUTEN FREE" and when I checked the glaze packet, it also said GLUTEN FREE right on it! OF course, I had to buy one!

      Celiac And Eggs

      By MommaBear82 · Posted

      I just wanted to point out that the QUANTITY of exposure to eggs in baked goods would naturally be much less than if you were to eat a whole egg. I think that's why they appear to be tolerated in baked goods, but not as a stand-alone food.

      What should I do with these test results?

      By trents · Posted

      I would agree. The tests do not indicate you have celiac disease. So, if you are convinced that when you eliminate gluten from your diet your symptoms improve, I would conclude you have NCGS.

      By Jack Common · Posted

      My old results are: The Tissue Transglutaminase IgA antibody - 0.5 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests 0.0 - 3.0 is normal) The Tissue Transglutaminase IgG antibody - 6.6 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests 0.0 - 3.0 is normal) Immunoglobulin A - 1.91 g/l (for the lab I did the tests 0.7 to 4 g/l is normal) IgA Endomysial antibody (EMA) - < 1:10 titer (for the lab I did the tests < 1:10 titer is normal) IgG Endomysial antibody (EMA) - < 1:10 titer (for the lab I did the tests < 1:10 titer is normal) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgA - 0.3 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests 0.0 - 6.0 is normal) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgG - 46.1 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests 0.0 - 6.0 is normal)   Then I didn't eat gluten for six months and after I started a gluten challenge. Before the challenge I did some tests as RMJ had suggested to do. My results: The Tissue Transglutaminase IgG antibody - 0.5 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal)) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgG - 28 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal)   As trents suggested I ate 6 slices of wheat bread before the tests during the challenge. My results: The Tissue Transglutaminase IgA antibody - 2.0 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal) The Tissue Transglutaminase IgG antibody - 2.0 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal) Immunoglobulin A - 1.31 g/l (for the lab I did the tests 0.7 to 4 g/l is normal) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgA - 2.0 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal) Deamidated gliadin peptide IgG - 2.13 U/ml (for the lab I did the tests < 20 U/ml is normal)   As I can understand I don't have celiac disease.

      Global Food Gluten Free Certification

      So it sounds like Global Foods has adopted the FDA standard for "gluten free" advertising.

      Global Food Gluten Free Certification

      By cvernon · Posted

      Agreed, I am disappointed in the recent GFCO findings as well and definitely don't hold them in as high of a regard as I used to. I did find on the Global Foods website after posting that their required ppm limit is 20ppm, which isn't as low as I had hoped. I'll email and report back. Thx.
