        A few days ago one of the messages referred to gluten problems in Hormel
Corned beef with herbs. If I remember, the corned beef pretreated with herbs
was gluten-contaminated, that with a separate herb package was safe. Is the
herb package safe to use or is it contaminated?

   I'd be grateful for the sender's replying to me off-list as we plan to cook
the corned beef tomorrow.
