Those things are SO adorable. I would order them in a heartbeat if I had a little one!! I still might get some of the patches to put on a tote bag or something. TOO Cute!! Thanks so much for sharing.

Very cute..the only problem I noticed is that the shirts and patches for gluten-free say no wheat rye barley, but don't mention oats! Cute idea though! Vanessa

It might be because there is some thought in the medical profession that oats may be ok after all.

I myself tried eating them and got very ill so won't be doing that again. It's the only reason I can think of that they wouldn't put oats on it.

Relatively recent studies have showed that oats are safe for celiacs (unless they have an additional problem to oats, that is) provided that the oats are not contaminated. McCanns, after dealing with a contamination problem, are said to be the most reliable gluten-free oat.

The point is, though, the structure of the oat is not problematic as is that of wheat, rye, and barley.

I still don't think I would try them again.

I know. Even if I could have oats, I feel like I am doing fine with a gluten-free, oat-free diet....why take the risk if I don't really need oats anyway?

Those are so cute! And a good conversation starter.

I guess I brought up the oat thing because if I used those patches for my son when he starts kindergarten, I don't want someone giving him oats. I realize the oats themselves do not contain gluten, but are contaminated. If you are going to be letting people know of a condition, they need all the information.

      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!
