As a food industry expert with a focus on ingredient analysis and food safety, I can provide you with information regarding the gluten content in Hershey's Kisses.

Hershey's Kisses are generally considered to be gluten-free. The primary ingredients in Hershey's Kisses are milk chocolate, which consists of sugar, cocoa butter, chocolate, milk, lactose, milkfat, and soy lecithin as an emulsifier, and vanilla. None of these ingredients typically contain gluten. However, it's important to note that cross-contamination can occur in manufacturing facilities where other products containing gluten are also produced.

For individuals with celiac disease or a severe gluten intolerance, it's always best to check the packaging for a gluten-free label or a statement from the manufacturer. Additionally, it's worth mentioning that Hershey's does offer a variety of products that are labeled gluten-free, which can be found on their website or by contacting their customer service.
