I went on the Willy Wonka website and this is their gluten disclaimer:

Almost all of the current WONKA candies are gluten free, except the WONKA

I believe they are ok, it is mainly sugar. They are almost like Pixie Sticks. Lik-a-stik, bringing back kiddie memories.

I was so in love with fun dip back in the day. That was my candy of choice. Well, that and Skor bars. Are Skor bars gluten free? I am SO majorly having a craving for one now!

Hmm, not sure about SKOR bars. I know Caromello bars are and that makes me happy. I might stop eating them though, I am not going to buy Hershey's chocolate, not after what they are doing to that town.

What are they doing to Hershey?

Yeah, I've been trying not to support Hershey Foods ever since they said they would no longer be listing gluten containing ingredients clearly. Ugh... That made me mad. But, I'm still craving a Skor bar.

They wanted to relocate the plant to Mexico, something along the lines that it is cheapier to produce candy there. There was a rally in Hershey and now, they are cutting a lot of jobs over there. Today it was announced that they are cutting at the Reeses plant too, and in the beginning they said that wouldn't happen. It is 200-300 at Reese and 500 or so at Hershey...I feel bad for those people.

Guhlia Rising Star

Yeah, that does kind of suck. Especially since they won't pass the savings onto the consumer. Greedy, greedy, greedy...

You know what candy I miss since we can't have it anymore, those Satilite Wafers...the flying saucers with the candy balls inside. I loved them!

      thank you so much for all your help and information its very helpful, mind blowing but helpful

      @rjane, yes, it often feels overwhelming in the beginning. But let me encourage you by saying that it will get easier. You and your husband will develop, over time, a sixth sense of how gluten is typically hidden in the food supply and where it is found and you will develop an inventory of foods that you can trust and to stock your pantry with. The largest risk involves eating out at restaurants. Even if you order things that are naturally gluten free, you have no control over cross contamination happening back in the kitchen in how things are prepared and handled. Another trap is eating at other people's homes who are trying to accommodate your husband's need to eat gluten free but who lack knowledge about how gluten may be hidden in the food supply. I mean, who would expect to find wheat in soy sauce or Campbell's tomato soup? I know you aren't going to want to hear this, but you may want to consider making your kitchen entirely gluten free to eliminate the possibility of accidents and cross contamination. It would also simplify your meal preparation. Yes, I'm talking about both of you eating gluten free in the home. Many couples find this is the easiest and most practical approach to being consistent and keeping their celiac loved one safe. You might find this helpful:

      Has your hubbie been checked for SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth)? This is not uncommon in the celiac population. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/21820-small-intestinal-bacterial-overgrowth-sibo
