Gluten free foods

There seems to be loads of pre-packaged gluten free foods (including breads) in our supermarkets. I've searched the forum and see various mentions of gluten free sausage etc. so wondered if gluten free ready made foods would be an option for LCHF occasionally - sometimes when I travel the only option (apart from fast food) is to get a ready meal to microwave.
 
There are basically two kinds of "GF" foods - naturally gluten free foods (e.g. cheese, or rice flour), and food that could be produced without gluten (e.g. bread). Those foods will still contain substantial amounts of carbs, so I doubt that they'll make a difference.

Basically, I doubt that gluten-free products have any benefit unless are suffering from coeliac disease.
 
GF pre-packed/processed is very high fat and sugar. This is done to mask the disgusting taste of it.
There are some fab carb free sausages that are zero carbs, you need to look for those though.
 
Hi I am gluten free because of Coeliac disease/ I found some tasty sausages in Asda's frozen isle a couple of compartments are the free from range, It's called Dohertys (about 10 carbs for two), but haven't bought them for a while and also burgers, which i never did eat before, but a nice change and a treat.. Good luck.I hope you find something suitable.

They do a nice pork and apple sausage as well. The Black farmers sausages are scrummy as well.
