Gluten-free Flavors

Question: Do you have a list of your gluten-free flavors?

Answer: We do not have a list of gluten-free flavors. Sorry! The ingredients that we use change quite often. We do not want to claim a flavor is gluten-free, then have that list become outdated and the recipients not aware of the latest changes.
Ben and Jerry’s has a very proactive approach to addressing the concerns of gluten-restricted and other food allergic individuals. We work closely with all of our ingredient suppliers, including packaging, to verify all ingredient components. This includes those ingredients in natural flavors, colors and spices that would be a concern to persons with sensitivity to gluten. We ensure that this information is then included on our product’s ingredient label.
If our product contains gluten, its presence would be indicated on the label by the words "wheat flour", "flour", or other sources of gluten such as but not limited to malt and oats. Should any of our products contain those grains (wheat, flour, barley, oats, rye, malt, etc.) the label would reference them. We understand that there are tricky ways that gluten can be missed. We assure you that we have researched our ingredients carefully, and we know exactly what is going into our ice cream.
Ben and Jerry’s is a member of the Food Allergy Network and the Food Allergy Resource and Research Program. Upon the advice of these consumer and industry groups we do not provide a list of flavors that do not contain gluten. There is always a concern with any list that the list would be replicated and the end recipients would not receive updates that would be required with a formulation change. The safe approach recommended by these organizations is to read the label each time a purchase is made. We are very sorry that we can not provide you with a list. Recognizing that reading food labels can be time-consuming and tedious, we wish to encourage you in your daily effort to read all food labels, as it is the best way for us to insure that you receive the information you need to make an informed and confident choice.

Braums
Gluten-free information on 2/12/2010 from the FAQ page of Braums website  (www.braums.com)

Question: Do you have gluten free products?

Answer: We do not have a list of gluten free products, however, any ice cream without a baked product in it would be gluten free. Example: Our Cookies and Cream, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and Brownie Fudge Sundae flavors have baked products in them and would not be considered gluten free.

Brusters
Gluten-free information on 2/12/2010 on the FAQ page of the Brusters web site (www.brustersicecream.com) 

Question: Does Bruster's make a gluten-free ice cream?

Answer: We do not consider our ice cream gluten free.  The vanilla and chocolate base that we use does not contain any gluten, but we make our ice cream flavor over flavor, which means there may be microscopic traces of gluten from other "add ins" left in the machines even though they are rinsed between flavors.

Gluten-free information on 2/23/2010 on the Dannon web site (www.dannon.com)

Gluten

Gluten is a protein found in wheat, oats, rye and barley. Some people are sensitive to gluten and must eat foods that are “gluten‑free.” Dannon Plain yogurts (Lowfat,Nonfat and Natural) and Dannon Plain Activia are all gluten safe. Though Dannon products are not formulated to contain gluten, all other Dannon yogurts cannot be designated as gluten safe because we do not specifically test every ingredient or the overall finished product for gluten. Of course, when we use wheat or wheat products, we do list those ingredients on the label, as one of the 8 major allergens.
