I just noticed (wheat) after the ingredient Mannitol on Centrum Chewables. All the internet info I can dig up says Mannitol is GF but it is derived from wheat. I spoke with someone at Wyeth and they said that none of their products are certified gluten free and that chewables contain mannitol derived from wheat. The products have not changed but the labeling laws have. They are in the testing process for GF certification but that may not happen anytime soon. 
 
I know there are a lot of GF vitamins out there....does anyone have a "good tasting" chewable multivitamin that they recommend?
 
Thanks,
