Last week I wrote to Coca Cola the distributor of Vitamin Water. I asked the question... What is your Modified Food Starch made of... Corn or Wheat? This is the response that I received...
Dear Heather,
Thank you for taking the time to contact glacéau®. You may be interested to know that the usual source of the modified food starch we use is corn. For those products that contain modified food starch, it will be listed in the ingredient declaration. All vitaminwater®, vitaminwater zero™, and smartwater® products are gluten free. None of our products contain any of the fda designated “big eight” allergens. We hope this allows you to enjoy our products. If you have any questions or if we can be of further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us.
Thanks again for your interest in glacéau!
Sincerely,
Alice

I was so excited to get this email. It opens up more opportunities for me to try new products! If you are GF and like Vitamin Water (Zero) you now have another something to add to your diet! Share & Enjoy!
The modified starch are essentially frmed by treating the starch chemically. The starch are used for the food industries for various purposes. It can be used as a thickening agent and other products.
