I had several people email me regarding Dannon's statement 
on alcohol content in the flavoring.

I liked "Laurie's" response (to Dannon) best:

Are you aware that alcohol is no longer considered to have 
gluten because of the distillation process even if it is 
devived from a gluten containing source? If alcohol is 
gluten free, doesn't that mean that the products which may 
have flavoring based on alcohol even if it is derived from 
a wheat product is gluten safe? Please have your 
scientists check this out. There are many of us who would 
like to safely enjoy your flavored yogurts.

FYI: I just posted Dannon's response on the listserv as a 
better alternative to the "we don't know if our products 
are gluten free or not, so please don't eat them" response 
(the "CYA" statement). Dannon's response had enough 
information that we could decide which products we can 
safely consume, as informed celiacs. This is opposed to 
the now infamous Brach's candy stance... which in my 
opinion just sounds like, "we don't care."
