Many individuals suffer from a whole range of allergies. The nine most common allergens are listed below. However in our factory, we only have 3 of these allergens; Wheat, Milk and Soy. If one or more of these are an ingredient in our product, or if they come into contact with them during the manufacturing process, we are legally required to declare them on our packaging.
It is estimated that 1% of Australian’s are diagnosed with Coeliac Disease. Coeliac disease is caused by a reaction to gluten, a protein found in wheat, and other similar proteins found in rye, barley and oats. These proteins damage the small finger-like projections (villi) that line the small intestine which play a significant role in digestion. Coeliac Disease cannot be cured, however can be controlled by eating a gluten free diet. Given this, we at the Real McCoy understand that this is important and to offer products which do not contain gluten. Whilst many of our products do not contain gluten, please be advised that we cannot provide a 100% gluten free environment.
