I wonder what's wrong with the Reese's seasonal shapes. Is it a CC issue? DH bought me a pretty large Reese's PB bunny and the ingredients look fine.

Birdie - the seasonal shaped ones in the past did contain wheat for some holidays. I always thought it may be needed to mold them into the shape.

I always check the label before eating a seasonal PB cup and recently they do not include wheat.

The Hershey website does state this list is not all inclusive and that other items could be gluten free. I assume they didn't want to go into the details to which season shaped ones are ok or not so they just listed it this way.

As always read the label.

Yep, just read the ingredients. The Easter ones, at least the ones I saw, seemed to be fine.

Do they label cross-contamination too?

For those that do, it's not a label for cross contamination. It's a disclaimer that there MAY be a possibility for cross contact, through processing. Only the truly super sensitives would be susceptible.

Oh, so Hershey's says "May contain x" and "y was processed with x"? Or is it one or the other?

I suppose it wouldn't be the case that Hershey's would label "May contain x" since they do make non-gluten containing candies. Is that a true deduction?

Thank you for this post. I can't imagine having to give up Hershey's!!! I got nervous thinking maybe I'd been eating them when I shouldn't have :)

Any response to this?

      Celiac attack confusion and anxiety

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
