Del Monte

Del Monte will declare wheat, barley, rye and oats

On June 11th 2008, Donna at Del Monte wrote:

Thanks for visiting our Del Monte website and for your email.

Barley, rye and oats are not part of the allergen list, but we do not hide those ingredients in the natural flavors. If those ingredients would be added into the product it would be in the ingredient statement.

Conagra since 2006...I think so, but...


It seems to me many of these manufacturers should be contacted again. I'll start contacting those that we don't have any notations for and report back.

To update Sara Lee's entry with this...

in an email dated 4/7/09, Juile wrote:
Dear Al,

Thank you for contacting Sara Lee. It is always important to hear from our consumers, and we appreciate the time you have taken to contact us.

Here at Sara Lee, we have a 'truth in labeling policy'. Anytime there is a gluten-containing ingredient in one of our products, the ingredient will be listed on the ingredient label. These ingredients include those that may be present as a result of cross-contact. As we do not print a gluten-free list, we recommend checking the label every time for any ingredients your physician has told you to stay away from. We never hide gluten-containing ingredients in general listings such as flavorings or spices.

Again, thank you for your interest in our company. We appreciate your patronage. Should you have any comments or questions in the future, please contact us via our website at www.saralee.com or by calling our toll-free number, 1-800-925-3326. Our representatives are available Monday-Friday between the hours of 7am and 6pm CST.

Sincerely,


Julie
Sara Lee Consumer Affairs Representative

Thank you for taking the time to contact us regarding our Terra products. We apologize for the delay in our reply and appreciate your patience. We strive to maintain the highest quality products and we appreciate your patronage.

The Hain Celestial Group's labeling declares major allergens (peanuts, soybeans, milk, eggs, fish, crustaceans, tree nuts, and wheat) and we follow the U.S. FDA's regulations. In addition, our labeling always declares gluten containing ingredients. We recognize the serious nature of the allergen issue and we strive to minimize risk.

Both major and minor ingredients of all products, as well as all processing procedures and equipment, are closely scrutinized and all potential allergen issues as determined by the Hain Celestial Group are declared on our labeling.

We assure you, the consumer, that strict manufacturing processes and procedures are in place and that each manufacturing facility has active allergen control programs.

Terra products generally do not contain any gluten containing ingredients. All allergy inducing ingredient is stated
On the label. Please read the label thoroughly before you purchase. Terra makes a variety of products and it is
not possible to review each one for the ingredients.

To my knowledge they state that they use or did use [I don't know if they change ingreds or not] a barley enzyme in the processing of Rice Dream, but it's below a certain level.
