Bac-Os?

[CrockAlley]

I have a bottle of Bac-Os from before I was diagnosed. The ingredients seem fine, and it says "contains soy ingredients" in big letters. Wouldn't it say "gluten" too it it had wheat in it? (I'm a vegetarian, too, so real-meat bacon bits are out.)

Thanks for any help.

It is a General Mills product, so any gluten will be clearly disclosed--not as "gluten"--but by naming the source grain. Look for wheat, barley, rye or oats. If none of those are listed, there is no gluten.

Does General Mills disclose barley? I didn't know that.

Thanks a ton!

Among others, five big companies that will clearly disclose all sources of gluten (in alphabetical order): ConAgra, General Mills, Kraft, Nestle, and Unilever. They each own many, many brands, but look carefully on the label as the parent name is almost always given.
