I saw spelt Matzo in the store yesterday. On the box it says that spelt
contains "a different type of gluten and can be substituted in
gluten-sensitive diets."
But in a quick look around on the web I find the following:
-A gluten-free diet means avoiding foods that contain wheat (including
spelt, triticale, and kamut), rye, barley, and possibly oats.
-Spelt is considered to be wheat free but it is NOT gluten free.
-Following are examples of foods that should be avoided when eating
gluten-free ... All cereals containing wheat, rye, oats, or barley; bran;
graham; wheat germ; durum; kaska; bulgar; buckwheat; millet; triticale;
amaranth; spelt; teff; quinoa; kamut
I'm sure this question gets re-asked every year at this time. What does the
manufacturer of this matzo mean?
