Someone tells me that Wrigleys Extra chewing gum may contain gluten.
Is this true?

I believe all Wrigleys is gluten-free, R.O.C.K. (Raising Our Celiac Kids) puts out a candy list of verified gluten-free candies and I believe that all Wrigley's flavors are listed on there...
Wrigley’s:(October 19, 2006) Do your products contain gluten? The following is a list of U.S. Wrigley products that are free of any wheat, oat, rye or barley gluten: o Wrigley's Spearmint® gum o Freedent® gum, o Doublemint® gum o Extra® gum o Big Red® gum o Eclipse® gum o Juicy Fruit® gum o Eclipse® Flash breath strips o Winterfresh® gum o Orbit® gum o Winterfresh® Thin Ice breath strips o Orbit White gum o Altoids Sours o Altoids Mints o Altoids Gum o Lifesavers o Cremesavers What is the white powder substance on your (Wrigley’s)gum? All Wrigley gums are brushed with a rolling powder before they are encased in the foil wrappers that keep them fresh. On our sugared brands a granulated sugar, which has the appearance of confectionary sugar, is used. On our sugar free brands a dusting of sugar substitute is used. The amount of the powder used may vary and depends on the handling of the operator. In general, our Extra® brand gums have more rolling powder brushed on them than other brands.
