It was just pointed out to me that I have received incorrect information
about the tocopherol in Burts Bees lip products. The rep at the Canadian
office for Burts Bees told me that the tocopherol was indeed made from
wheat germ oil. This was wrong. I have now managed to phone the US office
(a difficult feat in Canada as the phone keeps being redirected to their
Canadian distributor) and spoke with an expert source. He confirmed the
tocopherol was made only from soybeans. He will be sending me a letter and
several documents confirming the GF status of their products which I will
post to the list.

My apologies for upsetting everyone. I now belong to that group of silly
people who incites panic among the list members...... Sorry.

*Please provide references to back up claims of a product being GF or not GF*
