Gluten-free food often gets a bad reputation. People complain that the bread is too dry, the pasta is overly chewy, and the snack options are almost non-existent. However, the real issue isn't with gluten-free products—it’s with the manufacturers. They tend to overprice and underperform, leaving millions of gluten-conscious consumers disappointed and missing out on the texture and taste of their gluten-filled counterparts. While not everyone is a fan of Trader Joe’s, it’s hard to deny that their gluten-free offerings pack plenty of flavor and texture. Trader Joe’s has become a go-to destination for anyone following specialized diets, including vegans and vegetarians. Whether you’ve gone gluten-free for health reasons or simply feel better avoiding it, here are the top gluten-free items at Trader Joe’s that fit perfectly within a diet free from wheat, barley, and rye.
Chili & Lime Rolled Corn Tortilla Chips

For those who love a spicy crunch, these gluten-free chips from Trader Joe's are a must-try! While Takis may not be suitable for those avoiding gluten, these chips deliver the same bold flavor with a zesty blend of chili seasoning and lime, all made with yellow corn.
Gluten-Free Organic Rolled Oats with Ancient Grains & Seeds

When you transition to a gluten-free diet, it’s common to encounter a frustrating issue—naturally gluten-free foods, like oats, are often processed in facilities with shared equipment, leading to cross-contamination. Finding truly gluten-free oats can be challenging, but Trader Joe’s offers a solution. Their selection of gluten-free oatmeal includes options packed with extra fiber and protein, thanks to the addition of ancient grains and seeds.
Gluten-Free Everything Bagels

Trader Joe’s Everything But The Bagel Sesame Seasoning Blend has revolutionized the way we season food. It’s the ideal savory topping for a wide range of dishes like salads, dips, popcorn, sandwiches, and of course, bagels.

Gluten-Free White Sandwich Bread

Trader Joe’s offers a wide variety of gluten-free breads and buns, from hamburger buns to English muffins and even pumpkin bread.

They’re gluten-free and packed with flavor, offering that traditional coffee cake taste, with a cinnamon-sugar swirl in every bite. Serve warm with a cup of coffee, and you’ve got a treat worth savoring.
