Dear List Mates,

Good news and bad news. The good news is that many See's candies are now
safe for celiacs to eat. The bad news is that we will all become overweight
because we have held off eating See's for too long.

Here is an attachment that came by way of the SF Bay Area Celiac Support
Group. The person to whom it was addressed game me permission to post this
message. Message follows.

See'scan dies [T20060302004D]

Thank you for visiting Sees.com.  We do not dust our conveyor belts with
flour.  Our Quality Assurance department has advised that we have
recently reformulated our products and we have eliminated wheat as a
direct ingredient in all of our candies.  Therefore, none of our
products contain gluten as a direct ingredient and cross-contamination
is no longer a possibility.  We do wish to advise that our Malt Truffle
contains malt powder.

We are still in the process of changing our packaging labels and do not
expect to have this completed until later this year.  Some of our
product labels still list wheat as an ingredient.  However, this is no
longer the case.

I hope this information is helpful.  Thanks for your interest in See's
Candies.  We look forward to serving you soon.

Sincerely,

Ian Dickie
See's Candies Customer Service
