I am a mom of a child with both autism and celiac disease. This blog will hopefully help guide others who are new to the GFCF diet. This blog is not meant as the "end all know all" - I am not a doctor or a scientist, I am simply a mom feeding my family. We do use oats which many celiacs avoid. In addition to gluten and casein, we avoid nitrates and artificial colors and flavors. I also try and limit High Fructose Corn Syrup. We follow the diet as a family - everything in our house is GFCF.

Conagra who produces this product says that it is not gluten free!!!
I will contact conagra again - but this is from their website -
Which of your products contain gluten?
We are sorry to inform you that we do not have a source that lists the gluten content of our products. However, our product labels list common allergens, such as wheat, for those allergic to wheat gluten.
When I contacted them previously, they stated that the label lists all ingredients and there is nothing on the label to indicate that it is not GFCF. I only checked for the Traditional Flavor and not any of the others.
My son reacts to even the smallest amount of gluten and he has never reacted to these.
I am reading "The G Free Diet" by Elisabeth Hasselbeck, and she says to watch oout for "natural flavors" as they can be gluten based. My daughter was just diagnosed with Celiac, so I am reading everything I can find. The Rosarita can has a listing for "natural flavors" so that could be the source of the gluten, and if it is rye of barley based, they are not included in the allergens listing.
