I've used Minute Rice for years, but I just now noticed that they've started putting gluten free on the side of the box! When did that happen?!?!?! :) :) :)

It must be pretty recent, I just bought a box and mine doesn't say gluten-free.

Its on the side panel all the way down at the bottom in fancy print. Its under a picture of the box. I love it when companies put that on their packaging!

Wasn't Minute Rice previously owned by Kraft??? I thought it had been, but apparently it isn't now? Am I wrong?

I just love it too when companies include the fact that their product is gluten-free. When shopping at Wal-Mart there are many things that say gluten-free, I love that store. It is so reassuring to see it and to know that companies recognize the fact that they will gain customers immediately if they just put those two little words on their packaging. Barbara

It gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling inside to see those two little words on a package. :D

It's all those phone calls we make. :) Many don't realize that it costs a company money every time they recieve an 800 call. The more we call to ask on products the more companies will start to do this. The best incentive IMHO for a company to start putting the info on the label is money so to all of us who make those pesky calls Thanks and keep it up!

      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.
