Gluten Free Recipes

There are two products I have inquired about, one of which I have an answer for. Evon's Almond Bark- vanilla flavor *CROSS CONTAMINATION RISK* The ingredients of this bark are actually GFCF, BUT, the Evon's company has a statement from the producer of the product that they cannot guarantee it is completely CF because of a cross-contamination risk since the same production lines are used with their milk containing barks. So... this is a decision that each family must make for themselves. Here are the ingredients: sugar, partially hydrogenated vegetable oil (Palm Kernel), Lethicin, and vanillin (yes, I know some people avoid this artificial flavor). This is one of those packaged, segmented bricks meant for melting and dipping. They have a website at www.evonsnuts.com and it is distributed by John B. Sanfilippo & Son, Elk Grove Village, IL. Secondly, I ran across some unfamiliar chips and contacted the company and they are doing some more checking for me. I will tell you the name of them and then give you the status when they let me know. The company is called Log House Foods in Plymouth, MN and the product is Cherry flavored Chips. They look like they would melt like white chocolate. The woman at the company was quite confident that they were GF, but again, thinks there is probably a casein contamination risk for the same reason as above. I was inquiring specifically about what "artificial flavorings" were present and she had conflicting information. I'll post when I know more, they sell lots of flavors and she's seeing if any would be okay. The ingredients are: sugar, partially hydrogenated palm kernel oil and/or coconut oil, vanillin, and OTHER ARTIFICIAL FLAVORS, Red #40 Lake, salt, soya lecithin. Again- these are NOT confirmed GFCF at this time. Sara
