I bought a case of these yesterday (milk chocolate flavor). There is "natural flavors" listed in the ingredients, otherwise it looks safe. I've emailed Costco but haven't received a reply. Does anyone here happen to know for sure if these are gluten-free?

Thanks!

A phone call at the number below should give you an answer. Bear in mind that barley malt is often considered a flavoring agent and as such does not need to be disclosed on the label.

Costco is a warehouse store that carries food in bulk. They have started a new labeling policy for their Kirkland line of food products in which they will put "no gluten" on those products that are gluten free (including their roasted chicken). If you have a specific question on the gluten content of any Kirkland item, you can call a Costco service representative at 800-774-2678, Ext. 6.

Thanks for the phone number, ravenwoodglass. I will use that in the future.

I received an email reply today from Costco stating that the product is gluten free.

I decided to check for myself, and just received an e-mail from Costco saying the Milk Chocolate Weight Loss drinks are NOT gluten free.

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
