Looks like I research Bacon.....and Ham. It is a wonder my first dietician put bacon on my "allowed food" list . His diet was a bit wierd though. My insulin level dropped very little after 6 weeka of vewry strict dieting and my cholestoral went through the roof. I ended up asking for a second opinion.
There are a couple of smallgodds companies that make gluten free bacon and ham. One of them is Primo Smallgoods. I contacted them and all their products are guaranteed gluten free.
Without giving too much details unless you want to. what State and region do you live in.?? I live in Adelaide.
I mainly shop at my local Cole as I am not allowed to drive for other medical reasons and I go shopping on the council bus. Unfortunately the good Fruit and Veg, shop in the Shopping Centre closed a few weeks ago.
I check the health food aisles. I have found gluten free food in other aisles though, including various types of flour including cornflour. Even some Icing mixtures have gluten in them. It is only used by our family on special occasions. I also found Low GI Icing Mixture.
If you have other relatives that can eat commerically grated cheese or Parmesen Cheese some of them have gluten in them to stop it from sticking together.
