I continue to be impressed by the number of companies that are producing gluten free. What's more interesting is that some of the older established companies have for a while been taking notice of the gluten free need/demand. It's a bit worrying, perhaps, about the smaller companies that have grown throughout the gluten free need, now that larger companies are producing the same type of goods. Some foods were always gluten free. Hormel brands had a number of items that were close to being gluten free, and now many of them are labeled as such. Useful when I want to make a quick chili and cheese chip dip. (Superbowl party, here I come.)
Betty Crocker also produces a gluten free line of baking goods. Its still fairly expensive compared to their regular mixes, but nice that a regular store will carry them.
Progresso is who/what surprises me, when they completely replaced their normal line with a gluten free product. Particularly their clam chowder and cream of mushroom soup. Not a second line, but completely replaced, without making a large price change either. Yes, I know they've all been out this way for a while.
I still like going to my local Whole Foods, and even Trader Joes to pick up gluten free foods, but those stores are not everywhere, so it's still a nice change, knowing that wherever I am, I can probably get a can of Hormel Chili, or Progresso soup, or Betty Crocker baking mix.
