Answer 2

Just about any item that has flour in the ingredients has gluten in it. Gluten is an ergastic amorphous mixture of proteins found combined with starch in the endosperm of some cereals, notably wheat, rye, and barley. It constitutes about 80% of the proteins contained in wheat, and is composed of the proteins gliadin and glutenin. Gluten is responsible for the elasticity of kneaded dough, which allows it to be leavened, as well as the "chewiness" of baked products like bagels.

There are a lot of people that are allergic to gluten products and have to buy gluten free products. The main things you have to watch out for are pastas, baked goods, crackers, cereal, and rice.
