Gluten Free Turkeys

It is time for Thanksgiving and time to pick the turkey.
1. Butterball turkeys are always on the top of the Gluten Free list.Pretty much all Butterball turkeys are Gluten Free unless they have seasoning on it. They will tell you if it contains wheat. You can call 1-800-butterball for information.

2. Don't use the seasoning package that it may come with. And avoid turkeys with seasoning already on it.

3. Most local stores have gluten free turkeys. Spartan Brand turkeys (Family Fare, D&w) should say if it contains wheat, but again it may say wheat on it, but it could be from the seasoning package so read labels slowly.

4. Costco and Sams Club turkeys should be ok, but again please read the labels slowly and ask the meat department if you are questioning it. Most meat department people don't know what is gluten free so ask for a number to call.

5. Also some turkeys come with a gravy package. The gravy Package is NOT gluten free!! The turkey should be ok, unless the gravy is on it already.

6. Turkeys are NOT gluten free is they are stuffed with non-gluten free stuffing. Ask your family or friends, if they are making the turkey to not put the stuffing in the turkey, unless it is gluten free.
