Watch Out for Gluten Free Recipes that include Gluten!
« on: March 16, 2007, 06:34:35 PM »
Thanks to the sharp eye of user Sharon, it was brought to my attention that one of the recipes posted here by our automated recipe bot actually called for barley and spelt. People with celiac disease absolutely must avoid barley and spelt.

Since Sharon brought this to my attention I deleted the offending item, but I wanted to remind everyone that recipes posted here are found on the Internet with the attribute "gluten free" in their description, but people can make mistakes.

So please use caution when following a recipe just as you would shopping in a grocery store.

And thanks again to Sharon!

Steve

I try to scan through the new recipes posted, but even I miss some once in a while.  I, too, have caught & deleted recipes posted by the Bot that call for barley.  Nobody's perfect - not even a Dalek-wannabe!   :-D
