Subject: GOOD HUMOR - BREYERS
September 26, 2006
Dear Ms Truslow,
Thank you for your recent inquiry about gluten in Breyers, Klondike, Good
Humor and Popsicle brand products.
Good Humor-Breyers as part of Unilever, is a member of the Food Allergy &
Anaphylaxis's Network and the
Food Allergy Resource and Research Program. Upon the advice of these
consumer and industry groups we do
not provide a list of flavors that do not contain gluten. There is always a
concern with any product list that the list
would be replicated and the end recipients would not receive updates that
would be required with a formulation
change. The safe approach recommended by these organizations is to read the
label each time a purchase is
made. We are very sorry that we can not provide you with a list.
Recognizing that reading food labels can be
time-consuming and tedious, we wish to encourage you in your daily effort to
read all food labels, as it is the best
way for us to ensure that you receive the information you need to make an
informed and confidant choice. We
do want to reassure you that we work closely with all of our ingredient
suppliers, including packaging, to verify all
ingredient components. This includes those ingredients in natural flavors,
colors and spices that would be a
concern to persons with sensitivity to gluten. We ensure that this
information is then included on our products
ingredient label as "flour" or "wheat flour etc". If a source of gluten
were used in a product, it would be clearly
listed. Some of our flavorings may contain ethyl alcohol, however, because
the alcohol is distilled, they would not
pose a threat to anyone who is gluten intolerant.
Thank you
