Dear Roz:

Would you please clarify this a little more?

I assume you mean contaminated with gluten.

Are you referring to "flavored" or plain Quaker rice cakes?  (the flavored
varities have never been advised for a GF diet)
Is this your personal experience or has the company stated they feel the
rice cakes are contaminated because of non-designated equipment, etc.?
I am interested since a family member has blood results indicating "
continued slight gluten ingestion" despite a strict adherence to the gf
diet.  Quaker Rice Cakes are a daily part of this diet.

Thank you for your help,
Coralie
