If you ask anyone who has a food allergy or sensitivity what the hardest part is and they will say that making sure what they eat doesn’t have the ingredient they are sensitive to in it. Thankfully, there are now labeling laws for the top 8 allergens (milk, eggs, shellfish, fish, soy, wheat, peanuts and tree nuts). Unfortunately for those who have Celiac or are sensitive to gluten, companies are not required to call out gluten on the label. Gluten can be hidden in natural flavors, spices, etc. There is a lot to be said for companies that won’t hide gluten in spices or natural flavors. I will gladly spend extra money to make sure that the product that I am eating is free of gluten and is easily verified over one that I have to call to verify or wonder about. Here is a list of companies that will clearly mark gluten on the labels:
These are companies that say they will clearly list gluten in the
ingredients. I have not included companies that are specifically GF or
smaller specialty companies. I know this list is not complete. Some of
these are actually subsidiaries of some of the others, but I have not tried
to sort that out.
When a company says it will clearly list gluten, you might still see things
like “modified food starch” or “natural flavor.” In this case, the suspect
ingredient does not have gluten if gluten is not plainly listed. I cannot
tell you about any policies regarding cross contamination.

For the first 6 months or so after I was gluten-free, I carried this list around with me every time I went to the store. I also had a huge notebook full of lists of individual foods that I could safely purchase and eat. I no longer need the notebook or lists. For the most part I can either remember the brands or stick with what I know. We also tend to buy very few processed foods so there really isn’t the issue of what is in it if it is a natural, whole food.

My son and me, November 2000. This is before we were gluten-free/diagnosed Celiac.
What about companies that specifically list “Gluten Free” like you said Walmart started doing with their Great Value stuff?
Yeah, that is a whole other post. I didn’t want to make this overwhelming.
[...] I compiled a very large 3-ring binder full of foods that were safe for me to eat. I had my list of companies that clearly label gluten, but what about store brands? I typically do all my shopping at Meijer, but occasionally will shop [...]

Researchers at the Antioxidant Research Laboratory in
Italy recently discovered that drinking rooibos tea increases
“total antioxidant capacity”. This tea has a flavor of it’s own without adding anything extra. Cultivated in Egypt’s northern valley, we have combined the finest chamomile blossoms with the world’s most vibrant source of citral, lemon myrtle – found in the rainforests of Australia.
I suck in compliments like a sponge and absorb as
much pleasure as possible from each and every one.
It also contains 22 percent of plant proteins and between 5 and 8 percent of mineral
salts, among which stands out the presence of iron and
calcium (the highest value percentage wise to be found
in nature, about 780 milligrams per hundred grams,
and excellent absorption for the body). This is a nutrient found in every
cell of our body known to be a powerful wrinkle buster.
