Kirkland Products

I've been getting terrible stomaches lately and wondering if anyone knows if these products from Costco are gluten free...

Kirkland Signature Extra Lean Ham lunch meat

Kirkland chunk canned chicken breast

I wrote costco and never heard back.

Also in terms of spices

Old Bay? does anyone know if its Gluten free for sure.

Are there any spices that you stay away from or have caused stomach issues even if they should be gluten-free?

I've wondered if its soy or lactose but have cut out both for a few weeks seperate of each other and nothing changed so I'm now looking into all the foods I'm eating wondering if I'm getting contamination somewhere.

Thanks so much for any guidance anyone can provide!

Old Bay is gluten-free. Here's the link to the McCormick (company that owns Old Bay) FAQ question:

Also keep in mind that this only applies to the original Old Bay, not the variations (I contacted them about this last Fall to clarify).

I can vouch for the Kirkland canned chicken breast. I am pretty sensitive and have not been glutened by it. I've eaten many cans.

AmyNColorado.... my fellow Colorado carnivorous friend:

I literally buy both of those on my near-weekly Costco shopping trips. Rest assured, they are 100% gluten free.

I also wanted to let you know that one of the senior buyers in our Costco region is gluten intolerant. We have an ally in our court!

In fact, she was personally responsible for bringing Rudi's into our whole region -- as she saw this trend/demand coming a long time ago.

I still can't find the Rudi's at the Aurora Costco...is it in the frozen section?

Thank god for Vitamin Cottage. Reasonably priced and caring local chain. Check it out!

The Arvada Costco had it in the frozen section this past Saturday (2 pack). From my understanding (from the actual buyer at Costco) is that Rudi's is in ALL buildings in this particular region (CO, NM, AZ, UT, NV,& San Diego region).

I can get you the item number when I get home tonight and you can bring it up to the manager.

      Welcome to the forum, @Kiwifruit, I agree further testing is needed.  Disaccharidase deficiency is a symptom of Celiac disease.   On your test results, this line  "IgA: 0.9 g/l (norm 0.8 - 4.0)" is referring to Total IgA and it's very low.  People with low or deficient Total IgA should also have DGP IgG test done.  Low Total IgA means you are making low levels of tTg  IgA as well, leading to false negatives or "weak positives".  Maybe a DNA test for known Celiac genes.   Anemia, diabetes, and thiamine deficiency can cause test results like these.  Get checked for B12 deficiency anemia and have your iron (ferritin) checked.  Vitamin D deficiency is common, too.   Might be time to find a gastrointestinal doctor who is more familiar with diagnosing Celiac Disease.   Best wishes on your journey!  Please keep us posted on your progress.

      Yes, there is a trend in the medical community to forego the endoscopy/biopsy and grant an official celiac diagnosis based on high tTG-IGA antibody scores alone. This trend started in the UK and is spreading to the USA medical community. And yes, 5-10x the normal level is what I have been seeing as the threshold as well. Here is the relevant section dealing from the article above dealing with the importance of the total IGA test being ordered. See the embedded attachment.

      Ok, interesting. Not what I was thinking that meant. I'm reading the article and trying to understand. I see this “According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy” My IgG is 90, which is 6 times. So to me that means it's highly likely I do have it.

      It just means you aren't IGA deficient, i.e., that IGA deficiency cannot have given you artificially low scores in the individual IGA celiac antibody tests. This is explained in the article Scott linked above.

      Normal range: 70 - 400 mg/dL, a little above middle of the range. So what does that mean? Thank you! I will check out that page you linked. Appreciate it!
