I have looked for Farley's and can't seem to find it anywhere.

Anyone know???

[LKelly8]

DQ - Where are you? It depends on your area, you might find Farley's (Or Sather's, same company) in CVS, dollar stores, K-mart, Sears Essentials. . . you're right though they can be hard to find, Brach's seems to push all the other brands out.

I remember last year finding them at Alberson's (grocery store). I think this chain is mainly on the western US.

Halloween is coming! Other than Dove Choc. and M&M's what candy is Gluten free. Been a celiac since March, I miss candy a bit. Have it in the house getting ready for Halloween but I not too sure what I can sample.

I've heard that regular & king-sized Snickers bars are gluten-free. But the fun-sized ones are NOT gluten-free. They're made in a different factory, which also processes wheat.
