<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Dear Listmembers, I will be starting a new job tomorrow so I won't be writing that often, but will keep reading and helping whenever I can. We are in the process of trying to deal with our 8 year old daughter basically "running amuck" with a gluten spree. It started a couple of weeks ago when she was caught by her counselor at camp eating, of all things, an ice cream sandwich (she is also dairy allergic). Since then, she has been "slipping" all over the place and is a raving maniac because of it, not only physically, but emotionally too. HELP!!! She starts school tomorrow and I am the new school secretary so I can keep a closer eye on her, but she needs to be able to "Just say no" to gluten. Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated. I know the subject line says Health Valley Rice Crunchem's (like rice checks cereal) and originally I wrote to ask if they are gf. I can see by the ingredient label they are, but does anyone know about the cross contamination issue at the manufacturing plant? Please let me know asap, because if it is okay, it might be easier to get my daughter to stick to her foods. We went to a CSA picnic in the Chicago area and it was wonderful! I think their work is very good, and I for one am very grateful they are so stringent with what they will allow and won't allow. Just my two cents worth. Thanks in advance.
