Best Answer

No, you cannot eat couscous on a gluten-free diet. Traditional couscous is ground pasta made from durum wheat semolina, which contains gluten (as with all types of wheat).

However, manufacturers of gluten-free foods have come up with couscous-like pasta made from brown rice. These products are labeled gluten-free and typically available at specialty stores.

No, Couscous is made from durum wheat which has a great deal of gluten. This is the same wheat used in bread, pasta, and many other yeast risen products.
