Celiac Disease Foundation (CDF) National Conference and Gluten Free Expo

As a partner and supporter of the Celiac Disease Foundation, Frito-Lay was on hand at the CDF National Conference and Gluten Free Expo in Pasadena, Calif., June 6 – 9. More than 2,500 health professionals and consumer attendees joined the conference, eager to learn more about Frito-Lay’s gluten-free products and resources. A team from Frito-Lay attended, answering questions and sharing gluten free educational materials, such as Gluten Free Grains and Gluten Free Flour Alternatives handouts. Recipe cards were also available for attendees to take as they made their way through the expo hall. The Frito-Lay snacks were a big hit too! The team passed out more than 2,260 samples of single serve bags of Lay’s^® Classic potato chips at the expo and included single-serve bags of Fritos^® Original corn chips in attendees’ gift bags. Following a great conference, Frito-Lay looks forward to working with CDF again in the future!
