Dear Ms. Horsfield:

I am writing in response to an e-mail I received regarding the multi-vitamins and I appreciate the opportunity to respond.

You inquired about whether or not our iron free, multi-vitamins contained gluten.  Thank you for your patience in this matter.  I just received the answer to your question this morning.  The vitamins have starch and gelatin in them, so should not be considered gluten free.   I hope this information is helpful.  We do have a list of gluten-free products available.  Let me know if you are interested and I will send it to you.

If I can be of any further service to you please feel free to contact me again or call us toll free at 1-877-723-3929.

Thank you for your time and thank you for shopping with Safeway.

Sincerely,

Sherry Mariscal
Customer Service Representative
