These sixteen supermarkets feature gluten free products in their stores and list those products on their websites. Type the name of the supermarket chain in the search box below. Clicking on the search box will probably produce several different options, but the first one — the supermarket’s home page — is the one that concerns you. This page will provide a general introduction to the store and also give you links to addresses of individual stores and links to the supermarkets list of gluten free options. Here is your list:

If you feel like you have seen this information before, you are quite correct. I am attempting to accomplish two things in one article. The computers at google and the other search engines don’t do well under those circumstances and unless the machines are satisfied, you will not find the information you need. Here are my goals:

♦ I am trying to provide a useful list of supermarkets and the gluten free products lists that make our shopping more pleasant and more effective. I titled this article “Supermarkets with Gluten Free Lists”

♦ I am experimenting with a new approach to list-making. Whenever we read a printed list, we go to the internet to make sure that the information is still up-to-date. We can avoid that step by using lists that send us directly to the appropriate website. That step not only saves time for you, but it streamlines the otherwise tedious task of researching the information and entering the data into the computer. Thus, these lists can be expanded indefinitely, updated regularly, and offered at minimal cost.

I wrote two articles in order achieve two goals in a way that the computers can comprehend. Next week, I will write about restaurant chains that provide gluten free meals.

REMINDER: Our current survey deals with the problems we confront when dealing with ingredients lists. We know that we must read every ingredients list every time. The survey describes four “problems” that might arise when we are reading ingredients lists and ask everyone to indicate how they would react to that situation. There are no right or wrong answers, but it is helpful for each of us to know how other celiacs deal with these “problems”Click here if you have not already completed the survey.
