I have called many companies over the past few months, trying to find out
what I can and can't eat. Some of the most helpful have been Kroger, Hormel,
and Colgate, and Jimmy Dean Sausage. Kroger does not publish GF information
on their website, according to the representative, because they want to keep
everything absolutely up to date, and with so many manufacturers to contend
with, they do it better on the phone. You sausage lovers should know that
most of Kroger Brand sausages are GF. Call for details!

I called Hormel about Black Label Bacon, which is GF. She gave me an
extensive list of other things that I like, and are GF.

All Colgate toothpaste is GF, as an extensive list of other products. On
request, they will mail that list.

All Jimmy Dean breakfast sausage is GF.

I appreciate it when I call, and someone who has the knowledge and the
desire to help me comes on line. Then when he or (usually) she tells me
something will be mailed, I get it before too long. So far, we are not
appreciated for the large market that we are. And of course, a market
segment not at all likely to be fickle. Over time, as this becomes more
clear, with better and more timely diagnosis, and better publicity
organizations working on our behalf, most companies will have good
information, politely and effectively given. But for now, I appreciate the
ones who do it already!
