Important Reminder: Always Check the Date
Before relying on any review or company response I’ve posted, please check the date it was written or the date I received a reply from the manufacturer, restaurant, bakery, or other provider.
Companies frequently change ingredients and suppliers. A product that was safe at the time of my review may no longer be safe. Conversely, something previously unsafe might now meet gluten-free standards.
If you have food intolerances or allergies, it’s always wise to double-check with the company directly—especially if the product or location has never carried a gluten-free label or certification. This applies even to items you buy regularly or restaurants you visit often.
A Few Key Points to Keep in Mind:
- “Gluten-free” doesn’t always mean “Celiac Safe.”
- Not getting sick doesn’t necessarily mean the product was gluten-free.
- We don’t all react the same way, or at the same speed.
- Some people don’t feel gut symptoms—but damage to the intestinal villi can still occur, whether symptoms are present or not.
If there’s a review you’d like me to revisit—especially if it’s been a while since I last contacted the company—just let me know. I’ll follow up, update the review, and email you the new information (as long as you’ve provided contact details).
And if you reach out to a company I’ve reviewed, I’d truly appreciate it if you’d share their response in the comments section of the relevant review. That way, others can benefit from the most current information too.
I also recommend checking out the Gluten Free Watchdog. They test foods and share the results.
