Simply Organic's reply:
"Thanks again for bringing this to our attention. We are in the process of changing the labels over to include the GFCO logo. While this product does not have any gluten containing ingredients, these batches are not certified gluten-free. These items were added to the list prematurely, and we will remove them until the labels have been updated and all batches go through testing to ensure the absence of gluten. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you"
