Frequently Asked Questions 

http://www.mccanns.ie/pages/faq.html



Non GMO
Are the oats used in McCann's Non GMO?

YES - All our oats are NON GMO. They are specially grown by local farmers -
there are no GMO oat crops grown in Ireland.

Gluten Free
Are McCann's Oat products gluten free?

All McCann's oat products are processed in a dedicated oatmeal mill that
handles only oatmeal. In the supply chain between farm and mill, there is a
possible cross contamination with other grains, such as wheat and barley but
we reckon that the level of non-oat grains to be less than 0.05%. Cleaning
equipment within the milling process would remove the vast majority of these
grains along with other elements such as stones, straw etc.

But we cannot guarantee that McCann's oats are totally gluten free and we
recommend that consumers use their own judgement as to whether they wish to
use our oatmeal or not. Many celiacs can tolerate our oatmeal products
without any adverse effect but they may not suit those who are particularly
sensitive.
