Does anyone know which brands of candy canes are gluten free? I had read somewhere that sometimes companies dust the candy canes in flour so they don't stick to the packaging... thanks!

I've never found a candy cane that dusts with flour. In fact, the whole thing about lines and packaging being dusted with wheat flour is pretty much a celiac urban myth. Cornstarch and cellulose are used most often.

Candy canes almost without exception are gluten-free.

I'm pretty sure I read about the dusting with flour in Danna Korn's book which is why I was inclined to believe it. Either way, thanks for the responses.

      Yes,  Lisinopril gave me an inguinal hernia from the persistant cough. Amlodipine doubled urine output and dry eyes so I could not wear contacts, another had me walking bent over like a ninety year old and one knocked out control of my quadracepts so knees would give out.  None lowered my blood pressure. Average BP  132/67 for Oct 21 - 26.  Lowest was 100/59. High 157/62.

      I was undiagnosed for quite a few years. I now have neuropathy in my hands and feet. Be watchful of something like this and definitely see a neurologist if having symptoms like numbness in your extremities.
