I notice that she uses grain sweetened chocolate chips. I presumed these would not be gluten free. Does anyone know?

It sounds like you would need to inquire further regarding the product she uses. That's my assumption, not much help, I guess.

The Sunspire brand says:

"Ingredients

Whole grain malted barley and corn, unsweetened chocolate, cocoa butter, soy lecithin (a non-GMO emulsifier), and pure natural vanilla. Made in a facility that uses dairy, peanuts, sesame, soy and tree nuts. Incidental milk may be present. Not guaranteed gluten-free.

Well, I can pretty well guarantee that they are NOT gluten free with malted barley in them! Some people do not realize that barley contains gluten. One person who is celiac herself keeps trying to sell us candies sweetened with barley because she says they are safe for my daughter. She has also made samples of "gluten free" treats containing these same chips. Gluten aside, I wouldn't buy them anyway due to her other allergies.

Now it's possible there are other brands out there but I haven't found them.

      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.
