Frito-Lay has a long-standing commitment to health and wellness and has been a leader in the food industry in making nutritional improvements based on sound science. Whether through improved products or new product introductions, Frito-Lay offers consumers a wide variety of snacks that can fit into a healthier lifestyle, and continues to build on these efforts. In 2010, Frito-Lay embarked on a multi-year initiative to validate products as gluten free and then label qualified products on packaging. We developed a rigorous gluten protocol for testing our ingredients and finished products, with input from the Food Allergy Research and Resource Program (FARRP) and CDF. Frito-Lay is using an analytical test called the R-Biopharm RDASCREEN Gliaden/Gluten assay to test our ingredients and finished products to ensure they contain less than 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten before making a "gluten free" claim. This is the level set forth by the FDA in its Proposed Rule for Gluten Free Labeling. Since many of our chips are made from simple ingredients like corn or potatoes, they have naturally always been made without gluten. So we are not removing gluten from our products, rather, we are testing that the products contain less than 20 ppm of gluten based on their recipe. To illustrate this on our packages, we have started adding a "gluten free" claim to our bags, where appropriate. The claim on packaging can appear in the form of a "GF" icon and/or a statement on the back of the bag, depending on the product and bag size. Our website will always be the most up-to-date resource to identify products qualified as "gluten free".

Our story began in 1989 at the Silver Hills Guest House, a wellness resort quietly tucked away in the beautiful and serene Okanagan Valley of British Columbia. Rooted in a philosophy of holistic, healthy living, guests to the resort are taught the benefits of positive lifestyle choices supplemented by a vegan-friendly diet as a means of promoting health and achieving a higher quality of life.
Soon after opening its doors, the resort staff discovered they were unable to find wholesome, all-natural bread that aligned with their dietary values. Fortunately, Brad Brousson, the soon to be co-founder of Silver Hills Bakery, was on staff at the time. His mother had taught him the craft of baking bread and as a result Silver Hills decided to make its own bread. This is how Silver Hills Bakery evolved.
As a natural part of our growth, we’re excited to offer the organic whole grain nutrition of Silver Hills in our gluten-free breads that are made in a dedicated and certified gluten-free facility.
To this day we have two simple goals: bake wholesome, great tasting bread and inspire healthier living through healthier choices.

Well Amy® offers you easy access to healthy living by taking the guesswork out of shopping. The Market by Well Amy® is a new concept in allergen-free shopping, a welcome departure from the traditional marketplace. Starting a gluten free lifestyle in 2008, Amy was frustrated by the notion that following a special diet meant having to settle for food that did not taste great. She wanted only the best. To accomplish her goal, Amy organized groups of consumers to taste test and evaluate all products being considered for her Market. Products were judged based on criteria important to discerning consumers: how does it taste, what ingredients are in it, is it easy to make, will my friends and family like it and does it meet the needs of those with special dietary concerns. Before launching, more than 1,500 gluten free foods were tested and "only the best" in each product class are now offered on the Market by Well Amy®.
