I assume most folks on special multiple allergy diets have cast an uneasy eye on the new Expandex modified tapioca starch. I recently purchased a bag to experiment with and did a little investigating on the product in order to hopefully shed some light on things.
I contacted Corn Products U.S. technical support last week and a company representative responded (albeit after almost a week of waiting). Perhaps that is a good sign. The representative may have been digging deep to make sure the information presented is factual and accurate….
My contact confirmed that Expandex Modified Tapioca Starch is made in a dedicated facility where no gluten or corn are processed.
