>Dear . Your email was forwarded to us by the people at Lifestream

>Natural Foods. We are the actual manufacturer of Lifestream Rice Cakes. We

>produce them under license to Lifestream Natural Foods.

>

>In regards to your query regarding " cross contamination issues " please be

>advised of the following:

>

>1) We use a continuous production process. This means that only one

>variety or flavour is being made at any given time. Therefore the

>possibility of cross contamination is virtually eliminated.

>

>2) In the manufacture of Lifestream rice cakes, only the following grains

>and seeds are used: sesame seeds, buckwheat and millet. To our knowledge,

>these seeds and grains are all gluten free. If you have information to the

>contrary, I would greatly appreciate hearing from you. We have discontinued

>the use of barley in our non-organic Multigrain Rice Cakes.

>

>3) To further ensure that there are no cross contamination problems, our

>production protocols call for either a complete shut down of all our

>production machinery, and the vacuuming out and cleaning of hoppers and

>machinery (as in the case when we switch from the production of a

>non-organic rice cake to an organic rice cake) or to the use of " buffer

>zones " where runs of rice cakes containing, for example, sesame seeds or

>grains are separated by a run of " rice only " rice cakes.

>

>We fully understand and appreciate the issues involved with those on a

>gluten free diet. To the best of our knowledge, the casein issue is not

>relevant in our situation, but, once again, if you have information to the

>contrary we would greatly appreciate hearing from you.

>

>I hope that the above has answered your query. Please feel free to contact

>us directly at anytime regarding any further questions or concerns you may

>have.

>

>Regards,
