Original Hormel Bacon Glutenfree?

[stef-the-kicking-cuty]

Hi to all,

is the original bacon of Hormel Bacon glutenfree? I was trying to find out, but sometimes i miss things, because my english isn't that good all the time. So i thought i could go on their homepage and maybe find something that tells me it's glutenfree. And there is something else i don't understand, found also on their homepage. It's: www.hormel.com .

You go there and then you move with your mouse on the kitchen button. Then click on food knowledge and scroll down and then you will find Food Allergies among the food safety topics.

They write in the first break: "Among adults, the most common allergens are peanuts, tree nuts (e.g., walnuts, hazelnuts, almonds), fish, and shellfish. Among children, allergy to milk, eggs, peanuts, soy, and wheat are more common."

Then they write in the "Fast Facts": "There is no cure for food allergies". This is right, there is no cure for food allergies. Other than not eating the thing which caused the allergy. But, if there's no cure, then... All the children, who are allergic to milk, eggs, peanuts, soy and wheat grow up one day. And then they are adults, right? So the children add up to the adults, who already have that allergy. So how can the allergy be more common among children? Did i miss something? Somehow I don't get it...

And i still didn't find out if their original bacon (not the canadian one) is glutenfree. Maybe someone else can help me here.

Thanks, Stef

The bacon is gluten-free. Hormel has a whole gluten-free list here:

This was under their FAQs, which is where some companies put these things.

I think maybe what happens is that people develop allergies as they grow older even if they didnt have them before so in older populations more people have developed allergies that outnumber those that children have

Another theory is that you cycle through allergies every 7 years or so. I have found this to be the case only in the milder allergies. I have ALWAYS been allergic to cats, but many of my other allergies have come and gone.

When it comes to peanut allergies, the number of children with peanut allergies has doubled in the last five years. The researchers seem to suggest that it is because children are getting peanuts at younger ages now than decades ago. My daughter has a peanut allergy since age 1 1/2. There is a very low chance that she will outgrow this allergy. And even if she does outgrow it, many children who outgrow a peanut allergy have the allergy come back again later in life. So ater my experinece with this allergy, if you have young kids, don't give them peanut containing foods until at least age five.
