Quick-Start Guide to Stocking Your Gluten-free Dairy-free Pantry

Now that you’re gluten free, it is important to set up your pantry and refrigerator with staple items that meet your new gluten free diet. Many of your old reliables may now be on the “forbidden” list, but others may still be safe. It can be confusing when first getting started … which are the safe products? This list should help. Included are many familiar products available at your local grocery store, as well as some specialty items that can be great additions.

We’ve also included some dairy-free (casein free) items, since many gluten-free people are dairy-free as well. New items will be added to this page on an on-going basis. This is far from an all-inclusive list. Be sure to check back regularly. Here are some items we keep on hand. The list is accurate according to the most current information available from each manufacturer. Understand that manufacturers can, and do, make modifications to their products from time to time. 

We realize that some of the following products may not be available in your region, depending on what product lines are carried by certain resellers. If you have interest in a particular product, please contact the manufacturer’s website for product availability in your area.

The gluten-free product market is growing at a rapid rate. If you are a manufacturer, or a consumer, and you would like to see a product added to this list, please contact us at info@DailyForage.com.

*The items marked with an asterisk have already been included in our Product Reviews. Be sure to watch for ongoing new additions and reviews.
