Wheat Free Shopping Guide
Wheat is the second most widely produced cereal grain (behind corn). Like corn, wheat is used in foods, construction equipment and for energy. Also like corn, wheat can be tricky to avoid because of how common it is in foods: from flours to fake meats (especially imitation crab meat) to basked goods to pastas, wheat is nearly everywhere. Wheat is even used in hot dogs, ice creams and candies.
