Is there a pocket book that has list gluten free foods that is help full when grocery shopping?

I was just diagnosed with a gluten allergy. I was wondering if there was a book or reference guide to bring along to the store when shopping. A book that has updated products/foods that are gluten free. Also if it could have a list of the hidden ingredients to look out for. I have gone shopping but get overwhelmed. I think if I had a book I could carry along and to look at it would help. Any suggestions?

Here’s an article that may help with hidden gluten: Master of Disguise: How Gluten Hides Where You Least Expect It: http://okget.info/about/GlutenHides

As for gluten free food. If buying mainstream products (not specialist gluten free food), you MUST check the label of every pack every time you buy, because manufacturers frequently change ingredients without mentioning it on the front of the pack. So, if there’s no “gluten free” flash on the front (which you can trust as much as you trust the manufacturer concerned), then you need to check the ingredients label. And if buying 2 of the same thing, check both ingredients lists are the same – this should be pretty easy if you hold the packs side by side.

Gluten is only naturally found in wheat, rye, barley, spelt, kamut and triticale, but is often added to processed food for various reasons.

Unprocessed meat, fish, cheese bought in a block, eggs, vegetables, fruit, seeds and nuts are all naturally gluten free, as is honey and butter.
