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 Ryan [log in to unmask]
