> Thank you for your recent letter concerning gluten in  Diamond Foods products.

> The Emerald of California product line is produced and packaged at the Diamond Foods processing facilities.  
> Three of the Emerald snack nut products contain gluten.  They are Emerald Honey Dijon Glazed Walnuts 'n 
> Cashews, Emerald Backyard Grill Glazed Walnuts 'n Almonds and Emerald Honey Roasted Peanuts.
> 
> Diamond adheres to superior Good Food Manufacturing Practices, and all processing lines are thoroughly 
> cleaned between packaging runs of the different Emerald products.  However, there is no way to be absolutely 
> certain that our Emerald products have not come in contact with gluten.  Because of Diamond Food's concern for

> We appreciate your interest in our products.
