1/ In a significant development for students with celiac disease and food allergies, @TheJusticeDept today announced a settlement with @RiderUniversity that ensures accommodation under the Americans with Disabilities Act justice.gov/usao-nj/pr/us-…
2/ Following a student complaint, a DOJ investigation found the university violated the ADA by failing to make reasonable modifications for students with food allergy-related disabilities. DOJ reached a similar settlement in 2012 with Lesley University celiaccommunity.org/2013/lesley-un…
3/ We applaud @TheJusticeDept for upholding the civil rights of students with celiac disease and food allergies under the ADA, send appreciation to the anonymous student who filed the original complaint, and support @RiderUniversity in its new efforts
We have one consumer report of a box of Van's GLUTEN-FREE Waffles (round) containing their Belgian Waffles (square & made of #WHEAT). The box was purchased in Northern California, expiration 8-22-18. We alerted @vansfoods #celiac #glutenfree #foodallergy @GFWatchdog @FDArecalls 
According to the company website, Van's Belgian Waffles contain the following #allergens that Van's Gluten-Free Original Waffles do not: WHEAT, DAIRY, CORN. Both types are described as free of eggs and nuts.
The manufacturer @vansfoods will be looking into this and we will publish their reply or action. There has been no independent confirmation or recall. We are putting out this alert out of an abundance of caution for those with #celiac and #foodallergies
