I haven't. I have a mild reaction to the Honey Nut ones but not sure what does it yet. As long as the box says gluten-free, you're good to go unless you have a sensitivity to something else in it.

I had it two mornings in a row at my gramma's house, and it didn't bother me at all. I've never bought a whole box, but many, many cereals do not agree with me. It tastes a little reminiscent of cardboard though... you might want to add some berries or something to it.
I haven't tried any of the flavored ones, as I've heard they contain soy, and soy does make me sick.

So I am the odd one out because they don't agree with me at all. I've tried them at least 6 times and get the same pesky feeling for about 2 days. I am pretty darn sensitive and most grains don't agree with me - especially when processed to the level of Rice Chex so I'm not necessarily fingering gluten. I've run across a few posters here who don't do well with them for various reasons.

I have not had any trouble with any of the flavors- I eat them every morning and sometimes during the day as a snack.
~~~~Gluten Free since 9/2004~~~~~~

Same here . . . I think we've tried all the flavours now . . . they're not just for breakfast at our house.

My dd reacts to the Honey Nut and Corn Chex....I don't think it's gluten though, but rather the whole grains b/c she's fine with the Rice Chex. I also seem to have a problem with most whole grains, we've really had to cut back on the baked goods ( I use brown rice flour) and whole grains in general. Why we are having problems with grains now after years of gluten free has me completely stumped, but I guess the journey with Celiac is never ending.
I really think the Rice Chex is gluten free.....my dd is a good gauge of any tidbit of gluten b/c she is super sensitive, and these don't give her a problem. Hope that helps.

Corn Chex are not gluten free, also it does not say it is on the box.

Check your local store for the NEW Corn Chex which ARE gluten free and say it on the box. If you dont see it, then the stores are still using up old inventory.

Corn chex has also been reformulated to be gluten-free. Make sure you look for gluten-free on the packaging, as there may be some old boxes still floating around.

I ate a bowl of the new gluten-free Rice Chex this morning at breakfast. If there was a problem I would have known by now. Life is good. (An angel who was traveling to the US brought me back some gluten-free Chex and a supply of US, gluten-free, Lea & Perrins Worcestershire sauce).

I had problems with rice chex, but I am very sensitive and can't eat many processed foods.
