| Do you use GMO’s (genetically modified organisms) in your products? |
| GMO’s are plants that have been genetically changed by inserting a gene from an unrelated species. We use only approved ingredients conforming to health, safety and quality assurance standards set by the U.S. government and other governmental bodies worldwide. Our high quality ingredients include some that may be derived from genetically modified corn, soybean and canola. |

| Do you have gluten free products? |
| No. Some people may need to avoid gluten, a protein found naturally in all wheat, rye, barley and oat products, including flour. Please consult your doctor about all food allergies. |

 |
| Do you use hydrogenated oil in any of your products? |
| No. All of our Boboli products are free of hydrogenated oil and fats. Hydrogenation, a process in which hydrogen is added to oils to make them more solid, is used by many in the baking industry to help make products moist, easier to slice and stay fresh longer. |

 |
| Are the mono- and diglycerides in your products derived from an animal or vegetable source? |
| Mono- and diglycerides, which have earned GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) status by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, are naturally present in fats and have been used with a high confidence of safety for many years. The mono- and diglycerides we use are vegetable derived and provide the product quality and taste our customers enjoy. |

| Can I freeze Stroehmann products? |
| All our breads can be frozen. The product should be packaged in special plastic bags or freezing paper and, at the very least, all of the air should be squeezed out of the packing material and the unit tightly sealed so that no air or odors can enter. |

| Can I purchase via the Web or mail order? |
| Our products cannot be purchased through the internet. |

| What is proof-of-purchase? |
