Does anybody know, if strawberries from this company are gluten free?

I just receive a box of them. I can't have them because I have allergy to milk, but my husband can eat them, if they are safe ....

I just called them. The person didn't even knew what I'm talking about, so I told them I have allergy to wheat. She didn't knew, so she asked her manager. After wail she gave me the answer that it is gluten free.

So I think, it is safe.

I know this is an old thread but found it after I just received a box of Shari's Berries yesterday and one of the responses here is wrong as of 5/2016.  There was no ingredient info on their website so I called.  I was on hold for twenty minutes (it was Mother's Day!) and was finally told - after the person checked with her supervisor - that they are NOT gluten free.  If you search gluten free on their website - you get fruit baskets not the chocolate covered berries - another clue.  Would it have been so hard to include ingredient information? Or list in FAQs?

My husband and I received a box of these from a family member and the complete ingredients list was included in the box of strawberries, along with allergy warnings.  It appears that some of the dipped strawberries are gluten free and some are not.  There are versions that have a lot of stuff on the berries and some are just plain chocolate dipped.  I did not eat any because it was a mixed box so some of the berries were not gluten-free. 

I find it does not always pay to talk to someone at the company because they can be just as clueless as anyone else. I want to see ingredient lists myself. Then I can ask about shared lines, cleaning equipment, etc.  If I had been shipped a plain chocolate dipped version, I would have tried them but not when they are all mixed in with non-gluten-free versions.

      Canker sores

      By Mrs. Cedrone · Posted

      I have been a diagnosed Celiac for over 30 years.  If I even get any type of cross contamination I end up in the hospital.  Recently I have been getting "cankers".  I am assuming that this is a result from something I am eating.  any insight would be greatly appreciated.  I follow an extremely strike diet as result and this is something new that has popped up.  I still get very ache sometimes and fatigued.  Thank you.

      Chest pain from celiac

      By TheFuzz · Posted

      I had similar pains after going gluten-free.  Turns out it was more related to undiagnosed rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia.  Because celiac is an immune dysfunction disease, it's possible you have another underlying one.  I wish mine had been identified much sooner, so you may want to look at symptoms of diseases like RA and lupus to see if you have other symptoms that might point you in the right direction to ask the right questions.

      When they give you a blood test, there's a range they consider low to high from the results.  It's not based on how much vitamin you're taking.  My blood tests were low and then I took 5000 IU and they went too high on the blood test.  I also get exposed to D from the sun and I live in a very sunny area and I get D in some foods I eat.  I was very annoyed with the doctors because they weren't paying attention to the blood test results in order to help me figure out the optimum dose for me.  They just told me to take it when it was low on the blood test and didn't pay any attention after that.  Too much of a good thing is not a good a thing.  I hope the medical field knows enough to really know what the safe range is.  However, I would not go by just intake or sun exposure since how much each person can absorb is different.  That's why I wanted actual testing to determine my levels. Also, interesting points, about the choline.  I just saw some information about it yesterday and was thinking I'd better check if I'm getting the RDA.  This is the second mention I've seen on this in two days, so maybe the universe is trying to tell me something. If I get cramps in my feet, salt usually helps with it.  It usually means my electrolyte levels are off somehow.  I bought some electrolyte water from Sprouts.  I also try to add salt (Himalayan or sea) to my meals.  I always hear cut out salt from medical professionals.  I don't think they realize that when you make things from scratch and eat unprocessed foods, you've probably cut out a lot of the salt in an average American diet.  It can be easy to be too low on salt if you make things yourself. I've read selenium is important to balance iodine intake and one shouldn't have too much of one and not enough of the other.
