Red Mango is Certified Gluten-Free by the Gluten Free Certification Organization

LOS ANGELES, May 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Red Mango, one of the most popular and
fastest-growing retailers of authentic nonfat frozen yogurt today announced
that the company's frozen product has been certified as gluten-free by the
Gluten Free Certification Organization (GFCO). Red Mango is the first frozen
yogurt retailer in the U.S. that has been approved by the GFCO to use the GF
Certification Mark, stating that its frozen yogurt has met strict gluten-free
standards.

"We receive a lot of questions from our customers about the levels of gluten
in our frozen yogurt. Red Mango's frozen yogurt is naturally gluten-free, so
we made it a priority to cooperate with our manufacturing partner, YoCream
International, to provide documentation to the GFCO which ensures that Red
Mango's authentic frozen yogurt met their guidelines for gluten-free
products," stated Dan Kim, Red Mango's founder, president and CEO. "We are
proud to have our frozen yogurt certified as gluten-free so that customers
with allergies to wheat can enjoy Red Mango."

It is currently estimated that nearly one in every 133 Americans, or about 2.3
million people, cannot consume products with gluten. The Gluten Free
Certification Organization provides an independent service to supervise
gluten-free food production according to a consistent, defined, science-based
standard that is confirmed by field inspections, in order to achieve
heightened consumer confidence and safety.

"The number of gluten-free consumers is ever increasing, though eating
gluten-free is not a choice by most who are on the diet, instead it is out of
necessity," said Channon Quinn, Director of Industry Programs for the Gluten
Intolerance Group. "Because of this need, GFCO has taken very thorough
measures to ensure all products that contain our logo are in fact below our
strict threshold of 10ppm gluten. We are thrilled to add Red Mango's frozen
yogurt mix to our line of Gluten Free Certified products!"

"YoCream is committed to developing and manufacturing the very best frozen
yogurt products for our customers," added John Hanna, CEO of YoCream
International. "We are pleased to assist customers with the stature of Red
Mango achieve their ongoing mission to deliver the healthiest and best tasting
frozen yogurt to consumers. The initiative taken by Red Mango to obtain GFCO
certification is a positive step for the industry, and we are glad to have
supported them in their effort."

Unlike many of its competitors whose products contain artificial ingredients
or excessive calories from fat and sugar, Red Mango's frozen yogurt is made
with all natural ingredients, has no fat, contains no preservatives, and is
made without any artificial flavors or colors. Because Red Mango frozen
yogurt is made in the ways real yogurt is made, it offers a deliciously
authentic natural yogurt flavor, and contains significant amounts of probiotic
live and active cultures that are beneficial to one's health.
