I went to McDonalds.com and read the ingredients for hashbrowns and french fries and BOTH of them contain wheat! I had stopped eating french fries b/c somebody told me they had wheat but I was still eating the hashbrowns. :huh:

if you look on the internet, and on this site, you'll find, that in the end product of both, there is NO gluten, how ever, because wheat was involved, and is one of the 8 allergens, they MUST list it. calm down. you're fine. if you're not sick after eating them, they dont make you sick

agreed and nothing has changed.....

However if we had a dollar for every time we might be substantially towards actually paying for ACCURATE testing ... (presuming we could actually get hold of the oil )

So read the old posts and make up your own mind... is really the best.

I agree with gfp, this is such a controversial subject, everyone needs to read up on it alone, I like that nickel for everytime this was brought up, so there is a plethora of information on this site alone on the subject. make your own decision...

      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.
