It is my understanding that manyprocessed meats, including bacon, have gluten in the form of flavorings or thickening agents so I would be worried about both the bacon and the ham unless Dairy Queen specifically says they are gluten free. Does Dairy Queen have a specific gluten free menu where they list items that are gluten free?
