Guest guest Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Check the package carefully -- some Bob's Red Mill oats are not GF. Others are labelled GF. Unfortunately, the stores near me carry only the non-GF Bob's oats. H.

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Some oats are contaminated with wheat. Actually, most oats are contaminated with wheat, I've heard. GF oats are available from Bob's REd Mill (special GF package -- check carefully) and other sources. Also, some CD people react even to pure oats. H.

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Oats are more closely related to our problem grasses than corn or millet or rice. But many of us can still eat it without problems IF and that is a big IF, they are not grown, harvested and stored where wheat, rye or barley were previously grown (think volunteer plants), harvested (think same equipment not cleaned down to the very last grain or dust particle) or stored (think silos and train cars with the same issues as the harvesters). That said, you can get gluten-free oats online. I bought my last bags at www.glutenfreeoats.com but other vendors/farmers have good, clean oats too.

Guest guest Posted April 7, 2008 Report Share Posted April 7, 2008 Seems like oats is the funny category. McCann's Steel cut oats is as close as you will get.http://www.mccanns.ie/faq.htmlAre McCann's Oat products gluten free? All McCann's oat products are processed in a dedicated oatmeal mill that handles only oatmeal. In the supply chain between farm and mill, there is a possible cross contamination with other grains, such as wheat and barley but we reckon that the level of non-oat grains to be less than 0.05%. Cleaning equipment within the milling process would remove the vast majority of these grains along with other elements such as stones, straw etc. But we cannot guarantee that McCann's oats are totally gluten free and we recommend that consumers use their own judgement as to whether they wish to use our oatmeal or not. Many celiacs can tolerate our oatmeal products without any adverse effect but they may not suit those who are particularly sensitive.----- Original Message ----From: Fiesta Cranberry <fiestacranberry@...> Sent: Monday, April 7, 2008 11:06:08 AMSubject: [ ] oats Can anyone tell me for sure what he deal is with oats?
