Hello, I'm an expert in the field of food ingredients and nutrition. Let's dive into the topic of gluten in Starburst candies.
Starburst is a popular fruit-flavored chewy candy, and many people are interested in whether it's gluten-free, especially those with celiac disease or a preference for a gluten-free diet. The original Starburst flavors, which include Strawberry, Cherry, Orange, and Lemon, are generally considered gluten-free. They are made with ingredients like sugar, corn syrup, palm oil, and fruit juice from concentrate, none of which contain gluten.
However, it's important to note that product formulations can change, and sometimes new flavors or products are introduced that may not be gluten-free. Additionally, there is always a risk of cross-contamination in manufacturing facilities that also process gluten-containing products.
To ensure that you're consuming a gluten-free product, it's best to check the current packaging for a gluten-free label or to consult the manufacturer's website for the most up-to-date information.
