Are Oscar Mayer Products Free From Gluten Cross-Contact?

Many of Oscar Mayer’s other products are naturally gluten-free, but they aren’t labeled as such. Can you trust them? Are they safe for people on a gluten-free diet?

We wanted to know how Oscar Mayer treats its manufacturing lines to protect against gluten cross-contact between products, so we reached out to them. This is their response:

We appreciate you reaching out to us and inquiring about gluten free products especially OSCAR MAYER. I’m glad to help provide you with the information.

I’m sorry to let you know that we do not have a list of gluten-free products and, unless labeled as such, do not guarantee that our products are gluten-free. Formulations and ingredients change too frequently to ensure that such lists are always up-to-date and accurate.

We highly encourage you to carefully read the ingredient statements on all food labels each time you make food selections. This enables you to obtain the most accurate ingredient information for the specific products you select. It also allows you to get the most current information since ingredients in products may change over time.

Kraft Heinz products that display a gluten-free claim on pack are:
Oscar Mayer Selects
Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh meats
Crystal Light soft drinks

Also, we understand that consumers with gluten sensitivity are concerned about the potential carryover of gluten between products that are manufactured on shared equipment. Most of our production lines are designed to be convertible to other products. If a product is made on shared equipment, every reasonable precaution, including stringent cleaning and sanitation practices, is taken to prevent cross-contact with the eight major allergens (eggs, fish, shellfish, milk, peanuts, soy, tree nuts and wheat). When contact with one of these allergens is unavoidable, then the product is labeled appropriately with a cross-contact statement:

FOR EXAMPLE ON PACKAGE: MANUFACTURED ON EQUIPMENT THAT PROCESSES SOY, MILK, EGG, PEANUTS, TREE NUTS, SESAME SEEDS

I hope this assists you in making food choices that are appropriate for your personal needs. If you have additional questions about your personal dietary needs, please consult your doctor or a registered dietician.

Thank you for contacting us and please add our site to your favorites and visit us again soon!

Sincerely

Oscar Mayer Customer Service

It’s nice to see that Oscar Mayer has a strict cleaning and sanitation regimen in place in their manufacturing plants. While many of their products are naturally gluten-free, if you have celiac or are especially sensitive to gluten contact, you’ll want to always err on the side of caution and check the label to see if there is a cross-contact warning on it.

Go get your grub on!
