Question:

Are Eggs Gluten Free?

Answer:

• Whole eggs in their shells should be extremely close to gluten-free.
• Some extremely sensitive people with celiac disease and gluten sensitivity have reported problems from consuming eggs produced by chickens that were fed a heavy diet of gluten-containing grains.
• Most issues with gluten-intolerance does not come from the eggs themselves, but from cross-contamination in the kitchen in which they were cooked.
