I love pickled herring. I've tried ELF brand several time and get gluten symptoms. This is from the plain one not the one with sour cream. I was thinking of trying it again this year. I think I'll wait a few more years.

They must be going for the 2009 "Betcha thought you'd never get glutened from THIS Award."
