I just recently discovered that Dannon's flavored yogurt is not considered
"gluten safe" (Dannon's website states that its PLAIN yogurt is gluten
safe).  I am now on the search for gluten free yogurt.  Below is Yoplait's
response.

Dear Ms. Ritley:

Thank you for contacting Yoplait-Colombo regarding gluten in Yoplait-Colombo
products.

It is our primary goal to help our consumers determine whether or not they
can
include our products in their diet.  To accurately accomplish this, we
believe
it is best to refer to the specific ingredients listed on each product
package.

However, we do understand that ingredients can be confusing, so we want to
assure you if the ingredient label does not list wheat, barley, rye, or
other
sources of gluten, then the product would be gluten-free.  Sources of gluten
are
listed on the label even if the source of gluten is part of another
ingredient
(such as flavoring or spice).  Because ingredients may vary from one package
to
another due to product reformulation, you should use the product's
ingredient
label to provide you with current and accurate information.

Additional information regarding gluten may be obtained by contacting your
health care professional or:

                Celiac Sprue Association/United States of America, Inc.
                PO Box 31700
                Omaha, NE  68131-0700
                402-558-0600
                www.csaceliacs.org

We hope this information is helpful.

Sincerely,

Sue Fenwick
