I've never seen a marshmallow that was not gluten-free. I'd just go by what the ingredients say ... I think you're okay.

KRAFT are gluten-free. I think i get Stay Puffed. Just look at the ingredients, they are pretty straight forward. ENJOY!!! I LOVE them!

i am so glad someone mentioned this, because today I picked up a bag at the store and eventually put them back, because i was not sure if they were OK. My daughter has just started the gluten free diet this summer and she loves marshmellows, I wanted to get some to roast for when we go camping in the next week or two. She and her dad will be glad to have such a treat that is gluten-free. We suspect they both cannot tolerate gluten, both have had a postive response to the diet.

They're fine unless you have problems aside from gluten. Some of them do contain egg or soy. I always read the ingredients.

I believe the "coating" that you are talking about is corn starch. My son got a "food science" kit for Christmas and one of the things we made was marshmallows. At the end, we had to coat them with corn starch. And I see that it is one of the ingrediants on the package in our panty.

I have also seen recipes for homemade marshmallows but I don't know how they would "roast".

I have a fabulous recipe for homemade marshmallows - to DIE for! I hate to cook and bake, but I found these incredibly easy, and have made them repeatedly - friends now demand them. (you must have a stand mixer to make these, FYI)

When we go camping, we make s'mores with Health Valley's rice bran crackers (they taste like graham crackers but be careful because they also make crackers that aren't gluten-free), Hershey's milk chocolate, and Kraft marshmellows.

Yum!

      The only issue with that approach, is that some restaurants may not want to serve you--if you say you get violently ill, or have a deadly allergy, etc.--remember, at least here in California, businesses can decline to serve you.

      @llisa, have you also been diagnosed with celiac disease? You don't actually say but we have assumed that.

      I had bariatric surgery in 2018. My doctor put me on multiple vitamins, D3, and calcium (in the form of 2 Tums daily). My endocrinologist monitors my levels of these things, as well as my diabetes and Hashimoto's.

      Yes, I have concerns about the calcium supplementation as well. Sounds like a good idea on the surface if you are trying to address bone density issues but when overdone it can have the opposite effect. Calcium supplementation increases gut PH (i.e., lowers gut acidity) which can interfere with vitamin and mineral (including calcium itself) absorption. Often, bone demineralization is not due to lack of calcium intake but to low gut acidity. This is why you will often see calcium supplement products paired with vitamin C (ascorbic acid). Drinking OJ or tomato juice along with the calcium supplement can help with this as they are acidic juices. Calcium supplementation can also contribute to plaque arterial buildup I believe. I think it might be best to focus on rich natural sources of calcium.

      In that case if you answer "no" does that mean the chef doesn't have to be as diligent?  If you ask for "pork free" do they ask if it is an allergy too? How's this for an answer: "I get violently sick if I eat wheat, barley or rye"?
