Product Warnings:
Welby Elderberry Gummies from ALDI. This product is labeled gluten-free, yet the first ingredient is malt syrup. ALDI has been contacted and a complaint has been filed with FDA.
Walgreens Radiant Beauty Gummies. This product is labeled gluten-free, yet the second ingredient is malt syrup.
According to the FDA: Malt syrup and malt extract are interchangeable terms for a viscous concentrate of a water extract of germinated barley, with or without a preservative. The terms barley malt or barley malt extract are used also. Malt extract and malt syrup are ingredients derived from a gluten-containing grain, barley, that has not been processed to remove gluten. Food and ingredient manufacturers should be aware that malt extract and other similar malt-derived ingredients are ingredients derived from gluten-containing grains that have not been processed to remove gluten and, therefore, cannot be used in foods that bear a “gluten-free” labeling claim.”
