I just got off the phone with Pfizer, which was Wyeth, which makes ChapStick.
The answer I got was they "do not add wheat, oats, barley, triticum, rye....." to any of the Chap Stick line. It would say wheat, if it was in it.
But they will not say their product is gluten-free, because they do not test the end product and cannot control their vendors.
So, despite the probable safety, I think I'm going to return the ChapStick to the store, on principle.
I don't think companies should be obligated to make everything gluten-free. No-one owes us anything. But, I'm a firm believer in buying those products of companies that do go the extra mile. It's a way of driving the market with our pocketbooks. So, I'm signing off and looking for my receipt.
Thanks.
Lin
