Teeccino Herbal Coffee

[MrsM]

Hi, Has anyone tried Teeccino Caffeine-Free Herbal Coffee (Open Original Shared Link)? Barley is listed as an ingredient, but on the company's web site it says that the product is still gluten-free:

"Does Teeccino contain any gluten?"

Although Teeccino contains barley, an independent laboratory at the University of Nebraska that specializes in gluten testing found no detectable levels of gluten in Teeccino. Although gluten is present in barley, it most likely does not extract out of the barley using conventional coffee brewing techniques. Gluten is not extracted by boiling water although it can be extracted using ethanol alcohol, which of course is not present in Teeccino.

Real coffee (even decaf) upsets my stomach, so it would be nice to find a substitute.

Thanks!

Personally I would not drink it. I avoid things that have gluten ingredients even if it has tested to not have detectable gluten. I think this will have to be your decision based on the facts and your comfort level.

I don't know enough about the process that is involved, however, I would not be comfortable eating it.

Have you tried Folgers Simply Smooth? It's supose to be a stomach friendly coffee and they have a decaf.
