Sorry- this is another long post - but I wanted to share it with the group.
I am so concerned about the small stuff that my son eats (marshmallows,
salsa, condiments, etc) that I am checking all sources. So I asked wal-mart
to reply- and like the other posts, it is a bit more information than most of
us need: (read carefully - it is alot of information)

MARTIN GILLET
GV ITALIAN DRESSING
White distilled vinegar is used in the Italian Dressing. Per our supplier,
since gluten is one of the proteins in wheat and other grains left behind
when starch is converted to sugar, there is a possibility that vinegar made
from non-distilled grain-sourced alcohol might contain gluten. However, all
grain-sourced alcohol used by our supplier is triple-distilled, so to the
best of our supplierâs knowledge, no gluten is present. The is no gluten in
any of the other ingredients used in the Italian Dressing.
