The gluten-free market is in a boom right now. According to Grand View Research, this industry is expected to be worth $33.05 billion by 2025. What’s more, the same study find that around 70 percent of all gluten-free products are sold in grocery stores right to the consumers.

While those with Celiac disease and other gluten intolerances rejoice at a wave of new options, customers are now given the task of ensuring that the products they are purchasing are actually gluten free. People are force to rely on proper labeling to avoid exposure, and they’re often failed by manufacturers.

Mislabeling happens 

Trust is a huge part of the company-consumer relationship, and breaching that trust should be consider a major offense. Take, for instance, the case of one producer gluten-free foods carried in many American supermarkets. The Huffington Post revealed that Cederlane Foods sold a gluten-free salad that contained, among other things, couscous.

Normally, people with gluten intolerances have to avoid couscous due to the fact that it’s generally make out of wheat. However, there are ways to produce this rice-like foodstuff without including gluten. This is usually indicated to the consumer with a gluten-free guarantee on the label.

In this case, it turne out that the company’s couscous was make of wheat. The brand has promise to recall the product, and hopefully no one was seriously harme by this. However, this case exemplified the need for companies to give consumers a reason to trust them.

Take pride in your ingredients
