<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Thank you for all the replies. This list is wonderful. I've summarized the responses below with regard to the GF status of Mrs. Butterworth. Due to the varying degree of responses, I thought some of you would be interested - many use this syrup with no probs and others indicated it's NOT GF based on hidden barley in the natural flavoring. Based on such, I will be staying away from this in the future and going with pure maple syrup as many of you suggested. Thanks again! Summary comments: I have been eating Mrs. Butterworth's Original throughout my gluten free life (about 18 months now). I probably wouldn't have symptoms in any case, but my small intestine fully healed in 1 year and my lab work has always been excellent. I don't know where I found it (the most recent info I could run across just now was 2004) but it is on a list of gf foods I accumulated early on. My son (also celiac -- recently diagnosed) eats the syrup as well so please let us know if we have to change syrup. The company will not tell you if it has gluten in it. I've asked. They're very evasive. Labels nowadays will have "wheat" list on the label if it's in the product but not any other ingredient like barley or malt. My suggestion would be to use a "pure" maple syrup that is just syrup with no additives. Not GF, last time I checked. My Mrs. Butterworth's lite has malted barley in it. That means it is a no-no. Barley is a grain with gluten. Aunt jemima Lite has no such ingredient in it, which is what I use. Mrs. Butterworth is all my daughter wants on her pancakes and waffles. She is pretty sensitive to gluten but has never had a problem. Don't know about Mrs. Butterworth's but we do eat Aunt Jemima Original with no problems.

I contacted them almost 2 years ago and they said that there was gluten (barley) in the natural flavoring. Aunt Jemima and Kellogg's Eggo Syrup are both GF. It's fake food, but the last I checked it was gluten free. If you use real maple syrup, there is nothing to worry about. It contain maple syrup and nothing else. I do not know the anwer to Mrs. Butterworth's status, but Aunt Jemima and Vermont Maid syrups are both GF. (Vermont Maid says gluten free right on the bottle!) *Support summarization of posts, reply to the SENDER not the Celiac List* Archives are at: Http://Listserv.icors.org/SCRIPTS/WA-ICORS.EXE?LIST=CELIAC
