They do not naturally contain wheat, barley or rye so they should be gluten free. Are you concerned about cross contamination?

If they used wheat in any way they would need to include this as an allergen on the ingredient label.  The only ingredients are "dates":

I am worried about cross contamination because a lot of great value products are cross contaminated. It doesn't say anything about that on the bag though.

I'm not aware of the Great Value brand having an issue with cross contamination, but there are certainly lots of other brands of dates that are unlikely to be contaminated. For example, dates from Arizona and California are grown in the desert where no wheat is grown for hundreds of miles:

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
