More and more people are finding it necessary to completely avoid eating gluten, a type of protein found in wheat, rye, barley and oats. An estimated three million Americans suffer from wheat allergies, while roughly one to three million more have a condition called Celiac Disease, a severe intolerance to gluten that causes immune systems to wreak havoc on the part of the small intestine that absorbs food nutrients. Medical evidence also suggests that people with autism, multiple sclerosis, attention deficit disorder and various autoimmune diseases may benefit from a gluten free diet.
Van's pioneered wheat free waffles in 1993. Ever since then, we've been committed to upholding the highest standards of safety for our customers with wheat free or gluten free diets.
At Van's, we control the risk of cross-contamination during processing by making sure our wheat free and gluten free waffles go through our production line immediately after extensive clean-out procedures. What's more, we test every single batch of these waffles for the absence of gluten and gliadin. So you can enjoy your Van's breakfast with complete confidence!
Van's has gone to great lengths to ensure great taste and texture in all of our wheat free products (all of which are gluten free). We continue to develop new products to serve our loyal following of gluten free enthusiasts.
