I was looking at the Luna Bars, specifically the Nutz over chocolate, Looks OK to me. It says on the package "we source ingrediants which do not contain wheat, dairy and are not genetically engineered." But are they gluten free?

wheat free does not equal gluten free. many flavors of luna bars have malt, and all have oats.

No, they have oats and malt.

You can have Clif Nectar Bars and Bumblebars. Bumblebars chocolate is VERY good.

I buy mine individually at Whole Foods Market. I've seen them in other health food stores two and somewhere else recently that surprised me. I don't blame you for not wanting to buy a whole case...not everyone likes the same things.

I like the clif nectar bars too, not as much as bumble bars, but I like them. They're a different texture from the luna bars I remember (course, it's been years since I've had a luna bar too)...more chewy and moister...they don't have all the oats to stiffen them up, lol. Of course I like the chocolate the best. :P

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I looked at a package of ZonePerfect bars, and I swear I couldn't find any gluten in them, no malt, no oats, no wheat starch...could it be true?

Hum, I'll have to look at those. I also like a bar I get from my doctor's office...it's especially designed to not raise blood sugars and stuff...can't ever remember the name though. :(

I recently called Zone, and they do say that a number of their bars do not contain ingredients containing gluten, including the new forumalation of the caramel crunch and the fudge graham. You can call them for a list. They also said that they did not hide gluten in ingredients such as "natural flavors." They are made in a facility which also processes bars with gluten.

I love chocolate Bumble bars, but they aren't usually found in regular stores. I order them by the case, or get them in the health food store.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      What Thiamine Hydrochloride brand do you take? Is it like the other vitamins I have added? What brand Tryptophan and amount do you take. Thanks

      Gluten free Yogurt suggest

      I would not think store bought yogurt would contain gluten unless it possibly could be through an added flavoring or coloring ingredient. Otherwise, it should be naturally gluten free.

      FDA looking for input on Celiac Gluten sensitivity labeling PLEASE READ and submit your suggestions

      I believe the GFCO does use a common logo for certified gluten free products (those containing not more that 10ppm of gluten) but nothing universal yet from the FDA for standard gluten free products (those containing not more that 20ppm).

      Gluten free Yogurt suggest

      I have a One Pot and decided to start using it one day. I was hesitant at first making my own yogurt, but was surprised at how easy it was. I like mine better too.

      Because I spend so much time reading every word on all food packaging, I personally would greatly appreciate it if there was one common gluten-free symbol written in large-enough text, and always located in the same place. That alone will make shopping easier and faster. I dread having to buy packaged food. Thank you very much for asking,

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      By catnapt · Posted

      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding.   I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th   I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose   they are going to have to come up with a test that doesn't require it.

Otherwise, it should be naturally gluten free.  Keep in mind that some companies are capitalizing on people's fears and ignorance (nothing personal intended) by labeling foods "gluten free" that are just that way by the nature of what they are. They are hoping to create a marketing edge over their competitors by adding "gluten free" because they know it may catch attention of those new to the celiac/gluten sensitivity experience without having to cost them anything in the way of changing their manufacturing process or doing testing.
