Skippy

Welch's Grape Jelly

I was craving a PB & J sandwich as I hadn’t had one in a while. Back in Scotland I eat an amazing peanut butter from an organic store in Glasgow but since being in the States I haven’t known which varieties I could eat. It was the same with Jam (or Jelly as they call it here).

Which popular Peanut Butter brands in the US are gluten free?

Jif (from a phone call to JM Smuckers): A recorded message told me that “JM Smuckers use label disclosure of potential allergens and when protein is present from an allergenic source, we disclose the presence of milk, peanuts, tree nuts, soy beans, egg, shell fish, fish and wheat.

Their website doesn’t mention whether their products are gluten free but from looking at labelling it looks as though all Jif Peanut Butters are.

Skippy (from their website):  All varieties of Skippy peanut butter, Skippy Natural, Roasted Honey Nut, and Reduced Fat peanut butter spread are gluten-free.

Peter Pan (from their website): All varieties of Peter Pan Peanut Butter are made without adding any potential gluten-containing ingredients such as wheat, rye, barley, and oats.

My favourite of all the peanut butters here in the US is Santa Cruz Organic Peanut Butter. There is no added sugar like many of the popular brands, leaving it all natural and delicious. It comes in both light and dark roasted and both creamy and crunchy. I love them all and they are all gluten free.

Which popular Jelly (jam) brands in the US are gluten free?

Smuckers (from a phone call to JM Smuckers): The same as Jif above. Looking at labelling it looks as though Smuckers jelly is gluten free although their website doesn’t specifically mention this.

Welch’s (from their website) All Welch’s products are gluten free.
