Gluten-free candies

For some reason, MasterFoods (the fine folks who bring us, among other things, M&Ms) don’t have a MasterList of their gluten-free products on their web site. I called their customer care hotline and spoke to Tammy, who told me that they don’t make the list broadly available. However, when pressed, she admitted that plain and peanut M&Ms (but not the crispy kind, which are nasty anyway) are gluten-free, as are Snickers, Skittles, Starburst, Milky Way bars, Dove bars, and 3 Muskateers bars. So, if you need Arlene, you might be able to find her by following the trail of forbidden candy wrappers…

    Yes, according to the MasterFoods folks. My wife’s been eating them with no ill effect.

    Ordinary Snickers bars are gluten-free. I don’t know if the other flavors are or not, and I don’t know about Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.
