Marcona Almond Update

 In Elana Amsterdam's book, The Gluten Free Almond Flour Cookbook, she recommends using Marcona Almonds.  We cannot currently determine that the almonds are definitely gluten free due to that fact that the nuts are shipped from overseas.

Shopping Online... Be Careful Of What You're Buying

As many of you may know, the gluten free label and gluten free sales are not currently regulated by the Food and Drug Association.  For this reason, you are apt to find products falsely tagged and falsely advertised as gluten free.  The Amazon Store has been tagged by several customers for displaying products as gluten free that are not. 

For Example:
Amazon's Gluten Free Store????????????????

This is what happens when companies try to make money off of concepts they are unfamiliar with.

The Following Items ARE NOT GLUTEN FREE!

McDougall's Lentil CousCous
McDougall's Oatmeal
McDougall's Split Pea Soup

Newman's Fig Newtons

Barbaras Organic Wild Puffs
