I have never been able to get a straight answer Wheat starch is one of those "strange" ingredients that is allowed by some celiac/coeliac associations, but not by others. It is not allowed by the Canadian and U.S. Celiac associations, because they feel that there can be trace amounts of gluten present. A Canadian company called "Celimix" in Winnipeg sells products with wheat starch but they describe it as "99% gluten free", if I remember correctly. I personally question whether wheat starch can be listed as "gluten free wheat starch". It's too bad the company you mention uses it, because there are better alternatives.......
