In August on vacation I figgered out I couldn't have Blue Bunny Ice Cream. I thought all plain chocolate ice creams would be ok. NOT! That bunny was lethal.

What Chocolate did you have?

Federal Definition of "Gluten-Free"
The January 23 edition of the Federal Register contained a notice of proposed rule making to define the use of the term "gluten-free" for voluntary use for food labeling, to mean that the food does not contain any of the following: An ingredient that is any species of the grains wheat, rye, barley or a crossbred hybrid of these grains, an ingredient derived from them and that has not been processed to remove the gluten, or that has been processed to remove the gluten but more than 20 ppm remains. In addition, a food made from oats that bears a gluten-free claim in its labeling would be deemed misbranded if the claim suggests that all such foods are gluten-free or if 20 ppm or more of gluten is present in the food.

Gluten Content of Blue Bunny® Products
Obvious gluten-containing ingredients in Blue Bunny® products include items with wafers, cookies, brownies, cookie dough, bisque and pretzels. For the safety of our customers, if any ingredient such as a flavoring, stabilizer, emulsifier, color or coating contains gluten, it will be named in the ingredient statement. In general, Blue Bunny® products are gluten-free unless they contain obvious gluten-containing ingredients or gluten content is otherwise noted in a product's ingredient statement.

I don't see anything in this Classic Chocolate that would indicate any gluten.

Perhaps it was one of the other ingreds in the Bunny that you had a [non gluten] reaction to? Of course, there's always the CC risk. HD ice cream is pretty straight forward.
