If you have kids who love Mr. Beast, you may know his Feastable food products are beastly, but are they gluten-free? My grandchildren have philosophical conversations about whether Feastables chocolate bars are better than Hershey\u2019s. Of course, with Mr. Beast\u2019s name right there on the package they believe them to be better. They\u2019re happy to let me compare.<\/p>\n\n\n

Before I can, I need to know the ingredients. A visit to the website shows nutrition facts are easy to find. https:\/\/feastables.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The milk chocolate bars do not have any gluten containing items in the ingredient list, but the allergen statement says they may contain wheat. That\u2019s enough for me to avoid them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Milk crunch again looks deceptively okay. The crunch is rice based. But the allergen statement says they may contain wheat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cookies and Cream sounds like it would contain gluten, but it\u2019s made with rice flour. Exciting. But only for a moment. It also lists the possibility of wheat in the allergen statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Caramel, peanut butter, almond, dark chocolate, and dark chocolate sea salt contain the same allergen statement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I don\u2019t worry as much if an allergen statement says processed on equipment that also processes wheat, but they may contain<\/em> verbiage concerns me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peanut Butter and Hazelnut Butter Cups as well as the Yoshi Eggs may contain wheat as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All flavors of Sour Strikes appear to be gluten-free. The only questionable item in the ingredient list is natural flavors. Use your judgement and previous experience to determine whether you\u2019re comfortable trying them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The chocolate milk is gluten-free. I\u2019ll grab a bottle of that and wash down my disappointment that I don\u2019t feel comfortable consuming more of the products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On an entirely separate website, you can find Mr. Beast Jack Link\u2019s. These are beef sticks that come in original and teriyaki flavor. These seem to be a Mr. Beast branded version of beef sticks that are also sold under the Jack Link\u2019s name. https:\/\/mrbeast.jacklinks.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A visit to the nutrition facts takes you to the Jack Link\u2019s website. The teriyaki flavor contains wheat. https:\/\/www.jacklinks.com\/shop\/nutrition-facts<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The original flavor is a bit of a headscratcher. The label doesn\u2019t list any problem ingredients or contain an allergen statement. But the Mr. Beast side of the website indicated gluten-free products will be clearly labeled gluten-free and these are not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A little additional poking around on the Jack Link\u2019s website suggests that anyone who is gluten-free should only consume products linked to a specific blog post. The original flavor beef sticks are not linked. Seems like it would be safest to avoid them. https:\/\/www.jacklinks.com\/blog\/10-gluten-free-snacks-to-buy-right-now\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For those who maintain a gluten-free diet, many of Mr. Beast\u2019s snacks are beastly. Sorry for the disappointing news on a holiday!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
