<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Hi all, I just got off the phone with Herb Ox. I needed to know if their new bullion was gluten and soy free. They said that the new ones were. They also informed me that any meat containing product was under the supervision of the USDA and ALL allergens had to be listed on the label according to a law that was passed in 1994. It seems that they are just beginning to comply though (my observation) because the MSG in the old packets contained gluten. They said the FDA did not require it yet for their packaged goods. They also said the the ingredients that were acceptable under natural flavors were very few, limited to spices, and spice oils. I think this is great and perhaps a step toward what we need.
