<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> I contacted the Hains Customer service. They stated the barley enzyme is used in the processing of the rice and then removed. They test every batch of rice milk to assure there is none detectable down to 20 ppm. The formulation is the same they have been using for years. Up until this past year they listed the barley enzyme on the label as " this product may contain .002% of barley exract" as they weren't testing the product at that time. Now that they test all batches they are labeling it gluten free. Hope that clarifes matters.
