Morrisons

🛒 Morrisons Gluten Free Range

Morrisons was one of the first supermarkets to combine cupboard, fridge, and freezer Free From items into a single aisle. This change not only makes it easier for gluten free shoppers to find what they need but also helps them discover new products and brands. Following Morrisons’ lead, other supermarkets like Marks & Spencer and Sainsbury’s have adopted this layout. 

Morrisons also offers a ‘make your own pizza’ station, where you can create a gluten free pizza using their GF base. Whilst this is a great option to have, and will be so useful for many, be mindful of cross-contamination risks with the gluten containing toppings and sauces. 

🔍 Free From Sections

🚪 Cupboard

The Free From aisle at Morrisons is packed with own-brand products and an ever expanding range of branded partners. Whilst the Free From aisle varies by location, you’ll easily have access to a huge gluten free section at Morrisons, and probably spot new products thanks to the newly introduced format they're rolling out, combining all Free From areas in one aisle.

Within the aisle, you'll find a mix of well-known gluten free brands, plus Morrisons own-label options, covering the likes of:

• 🍝 Pasta & spaghetti
• 🍞 Bread & rolls
• 🍰 Cakes & desserts
• 🥐 Pastries
• 🍚 Flour & home baking items
• 🥣 Cereal & bars
• 🍫 Sweet Treats
• 🥫 Sauces & Condiments
• 🍺 Beer

🗄️ Chilled

Unlike some other supermarkets, Morrisons chilled Free From range is usually confined to one area and in some stores, it sits alongside the Free From cupboard and freezer sections. Morrisons have quite a few own-brand and branded gluten free chilled items, as well as dairy free products.

• 🥧 Pastry
• 🍮 Desserts
• 🍛 Ready meals

Fresh gluten free products are easy to miss if you’re only browsing the Free From aisle, so it’s worth knowing that some of Morrisons best finds are scattered throughout the store.

❄️ Frozen

In the frozen aisle, (or within the Free From aisle if the store has combined the cupboard and frozen areas) you'll usually find a dedicated Free From freezer section - though it’s worth noting that this is sometimes placed alongside or even within the plant-based section, which can make shopping a bit confusing. Always double-check the labels, especially in mixed sections, and remember that vegan and gluten free are not the same thing! Frozen gluten free items usually include:

• 🍕 Pizza
• 🍗 Breaded products
• 🧆 Party Food
• 🍟 Chips and sides
• 🥧 Pies
• 🍨 Desserts

🥪 Gluten Free Meal Deals

Morrison's offers a couple of gluten free sandwiches in the meal deal, including a chicken & bacon and a vegetarian option of egg and cress. However, options for a gluten free Morrisons meal deal are somewhat limited if you’re not happy with the sandwich choice; most of the salads contain pasta or croutons so unsuitable for those gluten free, but they do have plenty of gluten free snacks in the deal.

❗ Always double-check labels, particularly on meal deals, as availability and ingredients can vary.

🏪 Smaller Stores

Even Morrisons Daily and smaller stores stock a mini Free From section with cupboard staples like gluten free pasta, flour, and cereal. It won't match the range of a large Morrisons, but it's often enough to grab the essentials - especially handy after larger stores close on Sundays!

⚠️ Not Everything Free From = Gluten Free

This is something that trips up even seasoned shoppers: not everything in the Free From aisle is gluten free. Morrisons Free From label is an umbrella term that includes products catering to a wide range of dietary requirements - including dairy free, egg free and nut free. The majority of products in the Free From aisle are free from gluten (as well as other allergies), but don't get caught out buying something that's actually just dairy free, and not also gluten free.

✌🏻 Naturally Gluten Free Products

On that note, like all supermarkets, Morrisons carries hundreds of products that are gluten free by default so you don't need to buy something within the Free From aisle just because it's there - you can find a safe, gluten free product outside of the Free From aisle which is usually cheaper.

A good example? Pesto. You might spot it in the Free From section and assume it’s the one to go for, but standard pesto is usually gluten free. The version in the Free From aisle is more likely there because it’s dairy free (no parmesan) or nut free (no pine nuts).

Knowing what doesn't need to be bought from the Free From section can save you money and open up a whole new world of safe, naturally gluten free products.

Keep an eye out for the usual suspects: no BROW (Barley, Rye, Oats, Wheat), and no 'may contain' warnings if you have coeliac disease.
