Driven by health concerns and lifestyle choices over the past few years, US consumers have started to shun gluten in their food. Gluten is found in wheat, barley, rye and even in some hybridized strains of these grains. Although the number of gluten-free foods continues to grow, some food manufacturers continue to be cautious about this emerging category as well-publicized stories of gluten contamination have been shown to be dangerous to consumers and the subsequent recalls damaging to the reputations of food brands.
As a result of consumer interest in gluten-free, food manufacturers are beginning to accept oats as an alternative gluten-free grain solution. However, even though oats are naturally gluten-free, there are still some lingering questions regarding the growing, harvesting, processing and testing of oats to ensure they meet FDA regulations that require a product must contain less than 20 ppm to be considered free of gluten allergens.
