<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>>
I have been reading postings for a few months as well as looking
through the archives, and I thought that the gluten-free status of
Quinoa was somewhat controversial. I have stayed away from this
grain, because I'm not 100-percent sure that it is gluten-free.
Yesterday, while picking up my 'white-rice spaghetti' at a SuperTarget
store, I saw a package of Quinoa spaghetti that clearly stated on the
package, 'Wheat-free and Gluten-Free'. I checked the ingredients and
quinoa flour was listed along with corn flour. Does anyone know if
quinoa has been determined 'safe for celiacs', or is it a judgement call??
Sorry if this has been 'hashed over' previously. I'm just trying to
determine if I can truly trust packaging when it reads 'Gluten-Free'.
Thanks for all of your help!
