Hello-

I have been searching for reasonably priced vitamins that are gluten, soy, dairy and corn free. Obviously it has been bit of a chore LOL! Anyway, I was in Shopko one day and decided I might as well check out what they offered. I picked up the Shopko brand vits and to my surprise, they were actually allergen labeled!

There were many others, but I also was interested in a "B-Complex 100" labeled "Contains No Added sugar, salt, dairy, yeast, wheat, corn, soy, preservatives, artificial colors or flavors". I was a little concerned that "gluten" was missing from the B Complex label and that I didn't know what "Contains no Added" meant, so I emailed the company. It took a little back and forth to eventually get to the manufacturer, so I'm not including it all, but here is part of the email:
