--- Quote from: free_electron on May 23, 2022, 05:08:49 am ---Of course it's gluten free. it doesn't contain any wheat or other grains that contain glutenin. :palm: They might as well put things like "Does not contain elephants" or "Comes without steering wheel" what's next ? A bag of salad that says "Vegan friendly" ? A bag of rice that says "No cows inside" ? post your marketing bullshittery gripes below. i'm curious to see what other bullshittery is out there. --- End quote --- It's not bullshittery, a coeliac friend really opened my eyes to foods that *shouldn't* contain gluten but often do without listing on the ingredients (grated cheese for instance) Having 'Gluten Free' on a packet is a written guarantee it is indeed gluten free so a coeliac can grab a snack without having to pore over the ingredients list or worry that there's somehting that's not listed or the product has been contaminated by another process in the same factory. |

Tell me , what parts contain gluten ? A lot of this stuff is hype. look our product is this and that. Many people latch on to the buzzword du jour... This bag of lettuce is lactose free , gluten free , vegan / vegetarian / ovo-pescatarian and omnivore approved. Not for fruitarians. |
