Local shopping
Gluten-free shopping experiences appear almost everywhere. Virtually every supermarket and pharmacy in Northern California now carries some number of gluten-free foods, and the number of items range from very small to considerable. For the record, the conversation is not about naturally gluten-foods like frozen green beans or fresh apples, but non-gluten-free foods that can be made gluten-free like pasta made from rice and breakfast cereal without wheat or barley products. But there are markets that carry a broader line. The links below will help you find locations and specific products.
