Hi all, can anyone recommend a safe gum or breath mint that I can get in Atlantic Canada? Preferably without Aspartame...
Thanks!

Nobody??? Come on Coulter, where's your list for this??
I seem to have sour mouth all the time lately! Need something to freshen up! Does anyone know if the breath sprays or strips are safe??

Thanks!

There are alot that are gluten free in the US but I'm not sure about Canada Wish I could help

I use Altoids. I know they are g/f although I read somewhere that their gum is NOT g/f.

Here is a list from delphi:

I have not tried any gum as I don't really like gum.......

Altoids is made by Kraft and they have a very good policy of listing gluten.....

Thanks!

A favorite of mine is now off-limits, Xylichew. I am hypoglycemic and so don't use sugared gums, nor can I use artificial sweeteners. Xylichew is sweetened with xylitol. I wrote the company and here's the response:



So this was a major disappointment for me. I'm going to check on Peelu, the other one I like to use, but if no on that, I think I'm out of luck on gum.

I use tic tacs ( the whiute ones only) and have never had any problems.

I know this is an old thread, but just FYI Trident gum is gluten-free, according to their website.

I've asked about this on another celiac list and was told to avoid "sorbitol", I guess because it has gluten in it? But, I thought I saw sorbitol in the ingrediens list for Altoids. does anyone know about sorbitol, or if altoids are or are not gluten free?

thank you -- susan flinn

sorbitol is a sugar. it is not associated with gluten.
