Knowing that corn is gluten free, I have been using Maseca brand Masa Harina as my go-to flour when baking or making a roux. There was no mention on the label of it being milled in a plant that also processes wheat products, so I figured I was safe. After a recent issue with finding safe corn meal, I realized that I needed to investigate whether or not it was really safe. That lead me to their website and this statement:
For instance, corn is naturally gluten-free, and when choosing a type of tortilla, select tortillas made with MASECA® (which is 100% selected corn) and your tortillas will be gluten-free.
Well, I’m getting worried. There is no mention on their website of anything being gluten-free, and when you go to the page with the link you suggested for the statement, it says the page is not found. I have a feeling that they can’t claim it to be (as Bob’s Red Mill does, but, it’s more expensive) so they have removed it. Thank you for your article.
