What isn’t so “for sure”

There are several ingredients that are not as easy to figure out. Some may or may not contain gluten depending on the practices of the manufacturer and/or the country in which it was made, as well as labeling laws.

***Wheat-free is NOT the same as Gluten-free

A very important point to remember is that wheat-free is not necessarily gluten-free. With the labeling law changing to having to state whenever wheat is an ingredient, it is easy to forget to read the entire label if wheat isn’t listed in the allergen information or the package says wheat-free. If it says wheat-free, remember to read the ingredient list for anything that could contain barley or rye.

– Go ahead.

– Don’t eat it.

– It depends.
