Hi All-

Just curious if any of you eat McCann's Oats (from Ireland)? I know many
of you will advise not to risk it, but those of you who DO eat these, what
(if any) symptoms do you experience?

Thanks for your help!

Here is info straight from their website FAQ's:
_______________________________________

Are McCann's Oat products gluten free?

All McCann’s oat products are processed in a dedicated oatmeal mill that
handles only oatmeal. In the supply chain between farm and mill, there is
a possible cross contamination with other grains, such as wheat and barley
but we reckon that the level of non-oat grains to be less than 0.05%.
Cleaning equipment within the milling process would remove the vast
majority of these grains along with other elements such as stones, straw
etc.

But we cannot guarantee that McCann’s oats are totally gluten free and we
recommend that consumers use their own judgement as to whether they wish
to use our oatmeal or not. Many celiacs can tolerate our oatmeal products
without any adverse effect but they may not suit those who are
particularly sensitive.
