Here is a list of some of the candy that is okay to have

Smarties and Starburst are gluten free

US Smarties (Canadian Rockets) are gluten-free...but CANADIAN SMARTIES are NOT gluten-free.

For the Americans, Cdn Smarties are kind of like M&Ms, only the chocolate and candy coating are a bit different.

Mnm's (not the crispy ones) are gluten free. Nerds are, I think nerd ropes.... Sweet tarts, ahh.... I have a HUGE list but I really don't want to write it out. I say call wonka (nestle) and ask for a list of all the gluten-free products. Seriously, I got a list two pages long.

      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.

      Thanks a lot for your response! Can you maybe specify which kind of cheeses I should be cautious about? Camembert/Brie and blue cheeses (the molds of which are nowadays mostly grown on gluten-free media, though, so I've read, right?) or other ones as well? Also, I was under the impression that yeast is generally gluten-free if not declared otherwise. Is that false?

      I agree with @trents, but thank you for bringing this up here!
