The company says that gluten-free cookies are permanently available wherever the original Orios is sold.
“By adding a new line, Orio invites gluten intolerant or gluten sensitive snacks to enjoy our cookies as well,” one representative said.
The company said it focused on ensuring that the recipe provided a “snack experience comparable to the original recipe”.
