Gluten is in virtually everything.
I've found packaged salad that contains gluten because the vegetables were on a conveyor belt dusted with wheat to keep the salad from sticking.
Flour is used to thicken. If it has a sauce or gravy, it was probably thickened with flour. If it's a soup, it was probably thickened with flour.
Flour is used to make things stick when cooking. If it's breaded, it probably has flour. If it has added spices, the spices were probably mixed with flour. If it has ground meat, the meat was probably mixed with breadcrumbs to make it stay together.
Wheat is used as a filler in fake foods. If the food is made with tofu or fake meat, it probably has gluten. If it has bacon bits, its chock full of gluten.
If one of the ingredients is soy sauce, it probably has gluten. If one of the ingredients is malt, or malt syrup, or malt extract, or malt anything, it has gluten.
Sometimes restaurants will put pancake batter in scrambled eggs to make them fluffier.
Almost everything in grocery stores and restaurants has gluten in it.
