Yes, this is one of the problems some of us have had with Westbrae for some time that we've discussed before. I think they do have some GF products, but also when I've talked to them they don't seem to know the difference between "wheat free" and gluten free. Twice I've asked them for a list of their gluten free products only to be sent a list of their wheat free products. And they seem to use a lot of barley in one way or another, even in their wheat free stuff. If you eat anything by Westbrae, be careful to make certain they don't have hidden barley in it. Some of their soy milk is wheat free, but it has rice sugar in it. Some, but not all, of the rice sugar seems to be associated with barley in the beginning, and I do get a reaction from it, albeit relatively small (it only messes up a day or so). -vance
