Their stupid web site tells you how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop but not if Dots contain gluten.

If you e-mail them, they'll send you a list. I sent an e-mail about a year ago, so I wasn't going to respond with old information.

It is on the safe list from the celiacsociety.com. It was updated in July 2005. :)

Oh, thankyou, thankyou. :D My son usually only eats them at Halloween. I was making a class treat box for him and I bought them and saw MFS in the ingreds. Since it has been a year almost, I didn't trust them anymore and there's no phone number on this bag and no decent/useful info on their website. THANKS!

I don't know if it did in 2005 with this question was first posted, but as of now they state that none of their confections contain gluten. Tootsie Roll products are safe. Gross, but safe!

      This doctor is obviously under educated about Celiac Disease. Deficiencies that can cause oral thrush (Candidiasis) mouth ulcers: Thiamine B1 B12 Folate Zinc Vitamin C B2 B6 Iron Malabsorption Syndrome is often co-morbid with Celiac Disease causing multiple deficiencies of the essential vitamins and minerals.  Low or deficient  Vitamin D is almost always found in undiagnosed Celiac Disease. "Over 900 genes have been reported as regulated by vitamin D"  Possible Role of Vitamin D in Celiac Disease Onset  "The overall prevalence rate of vitamin D deficiency was 41.6%, with the highest rate seen in blacks (82.1%), followed by Hispanics (69.2%)."    Prevalence and correlates of vitamin D deficiency in US adults

      I saw the thing for testing for gluten when at public places.I absolutely love but I wonder if they would come up with a bracelet or necklace that can detect gluten in the air.I would LOVE that, i know i get debilitating migraine from smelling gluten wheat what have you, all I know is when I go into places like Chevron- gluten Subway, migraine, Costco that food smell of nasty gluten- migraine and same with Walmart subway.I absolutely HATE im that sensitive, my body reacts.Sadly medical hasn't taken core issue of celiac being an issue considering glutenfree ever since 1994 and in their eyes not because they didn't diagnose me. I am and wish I wasn't. If there was a detector of gluten in the air it would make a world of difference.

      Oops! @Staticgypsy, I’ll get the book! Thank you!

      Thank you so much for your help, @trents and @Staticgypsy! I so appreciate your thoughts. My diet is high in foods with oxalates and I don’t notice any issues there. If eliminating gluten from my diet had changed anything I’d be happy to just keep on the gluten-free diet, but with eating gluten several times with no rash, and having a rash when I was many years into gluten-free eating (and was much more careful at that point), I’m just baffled. Many, many thanks to you both.

      I did'nt know that, I will check what specifically the blood tests were for. Thanks
