Anybody know if sour patch is gluten free? I've heard mixed reviews but I have a pack in my cupboard calling my name.

I just read the ingredients and they have always looked fine to me.  So I eat them!

I have a severe allergy, how do I know if I can consume your products?

 

 

Mondelēz International is aware of the seriousness of allergens, and takes great care in making sure its products are safe, wholesome and properly labeled.

 

Our products are produced and labeled in compliance with the FDA labeling requirements. When labeling products, we consider - and label for - all possible sources of the 8 major allergens recognized by the FDA. These are eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, milk, peanuts, soy, tree nuts and wheat. In addition to the above 8 FDA allergens, Mondelēz International also tracks lupin, mollusks, and sesame seeds. For each product, we thoroughly review all ingredients, including ingredient components and processing aids, and the production process, to determine whether there are may be any of the above 11 allergens present in the product. 

 

Mondelēz International also labels for some additional allergens or substances that can cause sensitivity or intolerance in levels over 10 ppm, such as celery, mustard, sunflower seeds, poppy seeds, cottonseed, sources of gluten other than wheat, and sulfites. If any of these substances are directly added to the product, they will be listed in the Ingredient Statement.

Do you use dedicated lines to manufacture your products? 

 

 

No we do not have dedicated lines for all our products. 

 

We take special precautions to thoroughly clean and sanitize all our production lines between product changeovers on a line. We build these cleaning procedures into our safety systems to make sure there is no carryover from allergens; for example when switching from nut-containing products to ones without nuts.

Wouldn't let me edit.  I left the last line out of the dedicated line explanation - 

 

If there is any risk of cross contamination we will label the allergen in the “manufactured on equipment that processes."

      And the fact is, no two celiacs will necessarily respond the same to gluten exposure. Some are "silent" celiacs and don't experience obvious symptoms. But that doesn't mean no harm is being done to their gut. It just means it is subclinical.

      Thank you, Trents.  I appreciate your helpful and friendly reply. It seems more likely to be a bug.  It has been a pretty severe bought. I feel that I don’t have enough experience to know what signs my little one shows after exposure to gluten.

      Hannah24, be aware that if you are on a gluten free diet, you will invalidate any further testing for celiac disease (except genetics) and would need to go back to eating significant amounts of gluten for weeks or months to qualify for valid testing.

      Hello, @Hannah24 Have you had a DNA test done?  Celiac Disease is genetic.  You must have at least one gene to develop celiac disease.  You don't have to be consuming gluten for a genetic test.   Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can cause false negatives.  Some lucky people are seronegative, but still have celiac disease.  Peripheral neuropathy, tingling in hands and feet are symptoms of vitamin deficiencies.  Vitamin C, Thiamine B1, Niacin B3, Pyridoxine B6, and Cobalamine B12 can each cause peripheral neuropathy.  These same vitamins are needed to produce blood cells.  Most undiagnosed Celiacs suffer from nutritional deficiencies. The DNA test would be helpful.

      We do hear of cases of remission but they generally eventually revert back. I wouldn't push your luck.
