Carol, when you find out, it will be interesting to compare what you
learn with what the Michigan Tri-County Support group says in their
_Shopping Guide_ p. 31:
 
Dated 10/94: All Nestles products are GF EXCEPT any made with crisped
rice (Nestle Crunch and 100 Grand are not GF). Baby Ruth, Butterfinger,
Chunky-All, and Oh Henry are, according to this publication. It also
lists 12 candy bars from Hershey's that are GF, dated 2/95.
