I have not verified this, but wanted to share it ASAP. This came me today via an email from Michelle Black:

I am writing to let you know (in case it has not yet been recorded) that TGI Friday's Frozen Potato Skins are NO LONGER gluten-free.  The Yeast extract is from barley. Though it is on the ingredient list, the overall packaging does not indicate any change. 

I did speak with the company, which is now under the Kraft umbrella, and they have made a note that will theoretically go to the proper sources, but I wanted to try and get the word out to others who have Celiac and may not yet realize the recent change - especially since this product is listed as gluten-free under many sites (including celiac.com) when googled.  Granted some of these references are from several years ago, but they are the first to come up. 

Thank you and all the best,

      It looks like "mannite" is another name for "mannitol": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mannitol You are correct that it can trigger IBS-like symptoms, as we recently did an article on this: I'm not sure if there is a way around this, as it is likely needed for the test. Perhaps contact your doctor to see if there might be an alternative?

      Oral drink: You will be given a solution of mannitol mixed with water to drink over a period of about 30-60 minutes this is what it says it is ,?
