Gluten Free Product Recalls **updated list**

If you’re in the UK, no doubt you’ll be aware by now that various gluten free products have been recalled over the last few days because they’ve been found to contain gluten. (If not, see below).

This is very disappointing – and a bit unnerving!

However, Coeliac UK say that the level of gluten found in the affected products is very low: between 5-80ppm. That is enough to disqualify the items as gluten free under the new rules, but under the old rules, a gluten free product could have had up to 200ppm, so these products would still have counted as gluten free back then.

Nevertheless, it is not good, and does damage the trust that people living free from have in manufactured products.

If you have any of these items in your cupboard, don’t eat them and do take them back to where you bought them for a refund.

All the affected products were made in the same factory; the problem has been identified, and they’re fixing it. Phew!

Coeliac daughter had bought some Sainsbury’s scones; luckily, the best before dates don’t match, so she’s fine, but she’s still uncertain about whether to eat the scones or not. As you know, free from products aren’t cheap!

But, impressively, Sainsbury’s have written to her to let her know about the recall, to ask her to throw the scones away, and to say that they have credited her Nectar account with points to cover the price she paid, as a way of refunding her for the purchase.

Hurrah for Sainsburys! This is a great use for those ever-growing customer databases…

And thanks to Coeliac UK for sending out such a reassuring and explanatory email. In case any of you aren’t members of Coeliac UK, I include the list of affected products below.

I’ve written a book summarising what we’ve learnt over 20 years of dealing with the gluten free diet, and it might be just what you’re looking for. It packs the lessons we’ve learned into what I hope is a helpful and straightforward guidebook. It’s available on Amazon, as a paperback or for your Kindle…
