Corn Free and Gluten Free list 10/29/07

New and Improved Look!

The Corn and Gluten free list now has an improved look. The list has grown to a point that I am now organizing everything with sub-headings (IE, Canned Goods, Apple sauce, brand name) :) Hopefully this will make it easier to read.

Please note that while every attempt is made to keep the list current, ingredients and suppliers can change without notice. This list is not intended to be inclusive, use it as a starting point to build your own list of "safe food". And always read labels.
