Gluten Free Ham – The Ultimate Guide

Did you know that ham isn’t always the safest meat on the gluten free diet.

This is usually due to the fact that some of the glazes on the ham contain gluten, or worse, some of the ham itself can be subject to cross contamination during processing.

Thankfully, most ham companies are willing to tell consumers whether or not their meat is gluten free. Better, some companies like Dietz and Watson and Jones Dairy Farm actually produce certified gluten free ham.

But no matter what, it’s always best for you as the consumer to always double check the labels first, just to ensure that the ham you’re about to eat and buy is completely safe to eat.
