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 bet they are gluten-free but I would call and ask.

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.

      Yes, being off gluten for 3 months would likely yield negative results. To get accurate testing redone you would need to restart gluten consumption for several weeks (the "gluten challenge") to the tune of at least 10g of gluten daily (about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread).

      Antibodies to Deamidated gliadin peptides.  It is another celiac antibody test. The main test is the one you had, TTG,  But a full panel will also include DGP IgA and IgG.  I was positive on all of them!

      I had been off of gluten for 3 months due to food testing came back that shows gluten intolerance. I had asked my health care provider that I wanted to be tested for celiac before stopping gluten. Once they actually listed it shows my immunoglobulin A was really elevated and on the AB, IGA part showed <1.0. Would this be a false negative given I had not gluten in months? I’m very frustrated that the the test was not done while eating gluten.
