Ellen Bayens of The Celiac Scene.com is back for a lively and informative discussion of the regulations which form the basis of the obligations and responsibilities of food producers, and specifically gluten free food producers.  Have you wondered why some products in a grocery bakery don’t need ingredient and nutrition labels and some do?  What is the regulation concerning labelling foods being sold at a farmer’s market, or a coffee shop?  When labels are required, we need to see more than just the ingredients.  Ellen and I help you navigate the regulations around what food producers, restaurants and coffee shops must be able to tell you about the food you buy.

If you have a concern in regard to a restaurant, call that CFIA (Canada Food Inspection Agency) at 1-800-442-2342 and they will refer the call to the closest office of the CFIA and have them contact you.
