Guest guest Posted February 5, 2006 Report Share Posted February 5, 2006 I spoke to someone from the company that makes some of the vitamens for the Sam's label. He said the label will state whether it has gluten or not. I think he even said they have gluten free written somewhere on the label. Now I can't remember the exact detail, but I verified with him that I could trust the label and he said "yes". The bottle I had at home was an older run and listed starch as an ingredient. He indicated that their were no mystery ingredients on the vitamens if they were manufactored by his company. We were specifically talking about the childrens animal shaped chewables, but his company makes other products for Sams. Keep in mind that the Sam's label is not all manufactored by the same company, so read labels, as always.Barb & Glenn wrote: C, I was wondering how you found out that Walmart is requiring their generic manufacturers to label their products as containing gluten if they do. Is this for all OTC medicines? Have you heard anything about Sams Club brand products as they are not the same as Great Value which is Walmart store brand? I am thrilled if this is the case!

Walmart recently started requiring their generic manufacturers to include gluten on the labels, if there. These UPC numbers, etc., were taken from the packages/bottles with the latest expiry dates, which, ostensibly, would mean that they were manufactured most recent.Equate Children's Multivitamins Complete with Iron, Minerals and Calcium (150's): UPC 7003011659, Expiry 4/08, Lot #5FN0123 - clearly lists Gluten.
