My opinion. If the label does not contain any wheat, barley (or malt), rye, or oat ingredients, then I consider it to be gluten-free, and OK for me to eat. For me, it's just a matter of reading the ingredients list closely.

BTW, I eat the snack size Snickers frequently. The one's that come 10 to a package for $1.

Yes- to the best of my knowledge they are. I eat them without a problem.

I know at Easter the snickers easter eggs were not gluten free. It was listed on the label so I knew not to buy them. Sorry can't remember exactly what it said (probably contains wheat) but I knew right away not to buy them.

Snickers has it's own website. Be sure to mover your curser around!

1960s-had symptoms-could have been before but don't remember
1970s-told had colitis or nervous stomach-was given phenobarbital, felt great but still had symptoms
Me, dd and ds diagnosed with Lactose Intolerance
2000-osteopenia
2001-had stroke because of medications I was given
June 2003-saw Chiropractor who specialized in nutrition: Celiac Disease not Lactose Intolerance, went gluten free with once in awhile cheating, off soy and dairy for about 6 months
June 2003-found excellent doctor for fibromyalgia (who has found out she has Celiac Disease)
May 2006-went gluten free with NO cheating-excellent! Made all the difference in the world

Considering I've just eaten about 1/2 of a bag over the course of the last three days--the answer, for me, is no. :D And that's why I just hate Halloween. All of these deals on candy. Aargh!

The ingredients on the website (prior post) do not like any form of gluten. Their allergin policy is to list any and all of the top 8s on their label.
