The calcium ones are better than the plain Gummy Vites. Not that I would ever sneak any when my kids weren't looking.

lol. I don't have kids... I bought the calcium ones for myself. can I claim that I bought them because extra calcium is supposed to help migraines? ;-)

My teenage daughter loves them. Why do manufacturers make grown-up vitamins taste so bad? Do they think we should just swallow the pills and lump it, just because we are adults? My liquid B complex tastes so bad, I can only take 1/4 of the dose, and that has to be in a glass of cran-grape drink.

Last time I was at the sotre I think I saw more adult sized gummy vits vitmans. Gonna look agina, if they are there I will probably get them since not find mainstream gluten-free/DF vit for me yet.

I'm a fan of Rainbow Light's vitamins. They're the first cal/mag/D vit I found in the right proportion. So I was happy to find their Women's Daily in good proportions as well.

Oh my god, just quickly swallowing that pill with a large mouthful of water tastes like chewing on day old dry grass. NASTY! They appear to be good quality vitamins (dissolve quickly in water, you know that old test), but I don't know I can take them, the taste is just horrid, even for chuggin' them down).

ROFL!! I've been taking them w/my kids too.. I will have to look for the calcium ones, though and Adult ones. I know Sam's Club did not have those or I'd have seen them.

It's very nice not to have to fight w/them to take them too!

Where did you find Rainbow Light? Maybe I should look for those for me.

Now you see, crime does not pay. All of the times you stole your son's vitamins, they did you no good.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten? I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
