As a food industry expert with a focus on product ingredients and labeling, I can provide you with information regarding the gluten content in M&M's. Mars Wrigley Confectionery, the manufacturer of M&M's, has a policy of clearly labeling their products for the presence of gluten.
Caramel M&M's, specifically, are made without gluten-containing ingredients such as wheat, barley, or rye. However, it's important to note that they are manufactured in facilities that also process products containing gluten. This means there is a risk of cross-contamination, which is why Mars Wrigley does not label their Caramel M&M's as gluten-free.
For individuals with celiac disease or a high sensitivity to gluten, this cross-contamination could be an issue. It's always recommended to check the packaging for the most current information and to contact the manufacturer directly if you have specific concerns about a product's gluten content.
