I know that others have written Target about a gluten free list. I just did and this was the response that I got:Subject: Gluten Content Inquiry All headers

Dear Wendy Martin,

Thanks for your inquiry about the gluten content of our Archer Farms products. Helping to ensure the health and safety of guests and their families is our number one priority at Target.

I'm sorry Target doesn't currently offer gluten-free list for our products. However, the eight major allergens are indicated either in a statement directly under the ingredient list or in the body of the ingredient listing. The labels on our products are the first place to look for the most accurate information about the possible use of gluten in a product.

Additionally, we're always here to help. If you're ever wondering about the possibility of cross-contamination or the gluten content of a specific product, we're happy to research the item for you. Just call our grocery specialists at (866) 423-2135. When you call, please be sure you have the packaging. That way, we can quickly get you the information you need.

Great products. Great [uTF-8?]value—that's what shopping at Target is all about. Your comments are a big help to us, and I'll make sure to share them with our grocery team.

We'll keep working to make sure you can always count on the quality you've come to expect from Target.

Sincerely,

Gregg

I'm new to adding a comment or question to this forum but have found it extremely helpful as I continue my research on gluten-free diet. My son and I are 2+ months gluten-free and it's changed our lives!

I'm wondering if anyone has any updates on any Archer Farms foods from SuperTarget. I'm finding I react when I eat anything from Archer Farms, but haven't been able to narrow it strictly to the AF brand or if something else had gluten. It would be nice to know if any of their items were off-limits or okay.

Thanks!

i've called them before about their organic fruit strips and fruit bars.... they are totally gluten free and no gluten is handled on the machinery. they were very helpful and knowledgeable, just be sure you know the UPC # of the product so they can look it up.

Based on their response above, it sounds like they are only declaring wheat on the labels. Barley, rye and oats could easily be hiding in natural flavors, etc. I avoid them because they've never been very helpful when inquiring about the status of a product. I prefer to stick to brands that clearly labels all forms of gluten.

Just wanted to ad a few cents here. I have called many times on the Market Pantry Target brand, and they are not that helpful. You can only call Monday through Friday, between 9 and 6 in whichever time zone their office is located. When I called they told me that due to constant changes in ingredient suppliers I would have to call every time I want to know about a product, as they base the info off the lot and batch number. This went for their foods and medications. They only list the major allergens as required, and due to the constant changes they will not do anything else.

      This might be helpful - from Coeliac UK.   https://www.coeliac.org.uk/information-and-support/coeliac-disease/getting-diagnosed/blood-tests-and-biospy/#:~:text=Usually%2C a biopsy of the,more about diagnosis of children.

      Yes, wheat is common in most soy sauces now because it speeds up the fermenting process.

      For 16 years I have relied on the website glutenfreedrugs.com to determine if a pharmaceutical is gluten-free. The website has been down for at least a week. Does anyone have any information about this outage, the status of the website founder and maintainer pharmacist Steven A. Plogsted or a phone number? I did not get a response for my email to glutenfreedrugs@gmail.com in October of 2022. Steven did respond to my emails in 2012. Thanks.

      Sounds like you are in the UK. With blood numbers that high, I thought docs in UK would give an official diagnosis without the biopsy. You should ask about that, so you can get support faster.  I'd try to find and print out anything that supports that in your country, get another appointment and take all of it with you. Even in the US now, some docs are doing this, my 19 year old step granddaughter got an official diagnosis here in US with just blood results a few months ago.

      Is soy sauce in Korea also made from wheat like it usually is in US? I'd be concerned that even if asking about gluten, they would not be aware of or think of some like that.
