I saw over a year ago on the list that Werther's were GF. I have been eating
them frequently with no ill effects. I keep a bowl of them in my office for
everybody (so my coworkers don't get the idea I can't eat anything good,
partly!) and I have 1 or 2 everyday myself as an afternoon treat.

I contacted Storck USA the company that manufactures Werther's Original
Candy and I was told by the marketing manager, Les, that they can not
guarantee their product is gluten-free as they rely on other companies to
provide ingredients.  Their recommendation is to avoid it.  Their phone
number is 312-467-5700, Chicago, IL.   As a result of that phone call, my
mother decided to avoid the candy, although I know she loved them. - Kathryn
