Costco Cashews? Microwaveable Popcorn?

[Tigger18]

Does anybody know if the costco cashews in the big tub are gluten free? Does anybody know if the Organics brand of microwaveble popcorn is gluten-free? Thanks!

hi-

the labels don't list any gluten products, and neither label says anything about manufacturing process involving wheat, so i figured they were both ok. It seems like Im starting to have a reaction though.

The Costco cashews are fine (at least, I don't seem to have a problem with them, and I eat them every day). They DO have peanut oil in them, so stay away if you have a problem with peanuts.

we use costco walnuts and almonds without a problem - i assume they are all manufactured the same.

Call Costco's customer service from their website. They are great at answering these types of questions and usually get back to you within a day or two. My thoughts are the more we call, the more it encourages them to label stuff gluten-free, as it costs them for every incoming call.

the reason costco cannot label is because they buy out smaller companies and post their name on it... if you look closely at some of their things, you'll notice it. because the companies they buy from might re-formulate, costco would have to keep on their toes, too.

in canada, at least, this applies. the "Kirkland" jelly beans are Jelly Belly. Their Kirkland water is Nestle or Aberfoyle, I forget which. Their tuna is the same brand we get here. And so on.

It would be nice though!
