Proof:  The Codex Alimentarius Standard is based on analysis of the nitrogen content of gluten-containing cereals.  This standard permits a maximum of 200 parts per million (ppm or mg\/kg) gluten in a finished product allows for a cereal-derived product to be labeled \"gluten free\" if it does not exceed that limit.  Urnex chose 20ppm as our threshold based on a variety of factors and our desire to be excessively thorough and conservative.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\t \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\r\n\t\u003cspan style=\"FONT-WEIGHT: 700; COLOR: #666666; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana\" lang=\"en-us\"\u003e\u003ca name=\"Some_Grindz%C3%AF%C2%BF%C2%BD_packages_contain_%C3%AF%C2%BF%C2%BDBest_Before%C3%AF%C2%BF%C2%BD_dating,_and_some_do_not%C3%AF%C2%BF%C2%BDwhy\"\u003eSome \u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan style=\"FONT-WEIGHT: 700; FONT-SIZE: 8pt; COLOR: #666666; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana\"\u003e\u003ca name=\"Some_Grindz%C3%AF%C2%BF%C2%BD_packages_contain_%C3%AF%C2%BF%C2%BDBest_Before%C3%AF%C2%BF%C2%BD_dating,_and_some_do_not%C3%AF%C2%BF%C2%BDwhy\"\u003epackages contain �Best Before�, and some do not�why?\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\t\u003cspan style=\"FONT-SIZE: 8pt; COLOR: #666666; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana\"\u003eAs with any new product, the shelf life of Grindz was something that was not entirely certain prior to launch.  In an effort to be overly cautious and conservative, Urnex chose to print a \"best before\" date on each jar during first few months of production and distribution.  However, after 1 year of in-market experience along with simulated lab stability tests, Urnex has concluded that there is no longer a need for the best before date.  We now believe a reasonable period of storage prior to sale is a minimum of 18- 24 months - if not longer - assuming a clean, and relatively dry warehouse setting.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Urnex","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49888299942192,"sku":"UrnexGrindzRetail","price":18.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0810\/3605\/0736\/files\/Urnex_grindz_retail_3pk_600.jpg?v=1782453427","url":"https:\/\/www.espressoplanet.com\/products\/urnex-grindz-grinder-cleaner-3-pack-x-35g","provider":"Espresso Planet - Supramatic Inc","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
