"Please be aware that although ConAgra Foods cannot certify products to be gluten-free, we can assist you by affirming that a product has been formulated without commonly known gluten containing ingredients. We always advise consumers who may have sensitivities to recheck the ingredient list on each package. Products are oftentimes reformulated and the ingredients may change. If Natural Flavors, Artificial Flavors, or Spices listed in the ingredients list contain wheat, oat, barley, or rye, these ingredients would be listed in parenthesis immediately following the ingredient.
A hot dog "filler" is an ingredient that does not originate from beef, such as corn meal, flour, etc. Also, by-products are organs such as kidneys, liver, etc. Organ meat is required to be listed on the ingredient statement if they are present in the product. Our beef products are derived only from the forequarters of the cattle and contain no fillers or by-products."
