[Avodah] Gluten free oats

[Rabbi Meir G. Rabi]

Thank you for your post.

Q. So why aren’t they labelled gluten free?
A. Due to restrictions in the current Australian labelling laws, we are
unable to make a claim on packaging that any product containing oats are
gluten free. However we have our latest Gluten Free Test results displayed
under the compliance tab with corresponding batch numbers to show you that
these oats are tested to <3ppm.

The Elisa Testing Equipment for the detection of gluten cannot evaluate
less than 3ppm. All products on the market that are labelled gluten-free in
Australia will test to <3ppm which equates to ‘0’ or nil detected.

Oats are naturally GF becoming contaminated at the farm if grown close to,
or from being processed in facilities with gluten grains.

Oats are sourced from GF Harvest in Wyoming, USA. No gluten has been grown
on their land for at least 2 years. All machinery and storage are
exclusively non-gluten. Each field is thoroughly inspected, at least six
times during the growing season to ensure no stray glutinous species are
growing in the field.

which rekindles the Q = are oats one of the five grains?



Best,

Meir G. Rabi
