Discover what “certified gluten-free” really means and why it matters.

Have you ever wondered about the difference between gluten-free and certified gluten-free?

A product labeled gluten-free must meet the FDA requirement of containing less than 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten.

A certified gluten-free product goes a step further. It has been independently verified through processes that may include ingredient reviews, facility evaluations, and testing to help ensure it meets strict gluten-free standards.

For those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, that extra level of verification can provide added confidence when choosing the foods they bring into their homes.

At Simple Kneads, our bread is made in a dedicated certified gluten-free facility with carefully selected ingredients and rigorous processes because we believe you deserve confidence in every slice.

Why the switch? Extra virgin olive oil is packed with antioxidants and healthy monounsaturated fats, making it a smarter, cleaner choice for your heart. It’s been a staple in Mediterranean diets for centuries, and now, it’s a staple in ours too.
