Guest guest Posted June 25, 2001 Report Share Posted June 25, 2001 We would consider both products safe from a general GFCF point of view. * Many are sceptical to corn flour (maize), and try eliminating it for a while. We've tried this, and found no effect even after 3 months absolute elimination and large scale challenges afterwards. So, for our son, we have concluded (perhaps unwisely?) that corn (maize) is OK. * On the other hand, we belong to the minority who eliminate soy along with gluten and milk. That means that we'd stay away from the crackers, and look for the source of the lecitin in the apricot biscuits.
