Update to March 10th alert for Dairyland Yogourts:

Canada's Food Inspection Division has investigated the possibility of barley gluten in some Dairyland/Saputo products and says the amount of barley gluten, if it was not eaten up in the culture would be in the parts per billion in the ingredients. Apparently the Dairyland/Saputo company was being cautious when releasing information and they did not understand the impact of just saying barley gluten without explaining it was a culture. According to Saputo, they are planning to use a culture which is produced without a barley substrate and hope to have this implemented by July.
