Guest guest Posted July 21, 2006 Report Posted July 21, 2006 Canada has become very very strict on their labeling in recent years. I too have seen Bora Bora bars at Costco and have one in the cupboard at home but have yet to try one. If you'd like I can have my best friend (in Vancouver) ask at the local health food store and see what she comes up with. Carla > > Has anyone heard of Bora Bora bars by Wellements? They were having a demo at my local Costco and the labels say gluten free right on the label. They are delicious! But one flavor is oatmeal raisin, and it still says gluten-free. Now we all know that technically oats do not contain gluten, it's the cc that gives us problems. These bars are from Canada - Does anyone know if Canadian labeling allows one to say gluten-free when there are oats in it? If not, then these guys don't know what they're talking about and I have to question the " natural flavors " etc. There's no email that I could find on their website and I haven't had a chance to call. > > www.wellements.com > > -- > Trudy > > " Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.
