They are not taking gluten out of the oats, but are sourcing gluten-free oats. Just want to clear that up for any newbies!

Glad that there are more cereal options out there! Let's hope the price is reasonable. The cost of cereal is shocking!

Actually... they aren't using gluten-free oats.  The reason regular oats are not gluten-free is because of harvesting, growing, transporting, etc.  They become cc'd with wheat.  Cheerios says they have a way to use these cheaper non-gluten-free oats and separate out the stray wheat seeds.  "some are troubled by General Mills’ decision to use oats that are mechanically processed to eliminate cross-contamination from gluten-containing grains instead of oats that are specifically grown to be gluten free."

 

Right now, Cheerios is hosting a "conference" for some bloggers and associations to try to reassure us that the Cheerios, using regular cc'd oats, will be gluten free.  I hope that they test the cereal before selling it.  We will see what comes of that soon.

Noooo not gluten-free rice krispies!  Ah well never really bought them just like having the option.  I have read that growth in the gluten-free products market is slowing down, so I highly suspect the "bubble" in the market will pop eventually, and we will see a lot of the gluten-free products from mainstream brands pulled.  Hopefully the good gluten-free brands that we all know and love will survive all of it.

 

As for gluten-free cheerios, they will probably be fine to eat.  While I don't like that they are not sourcing gluten-free grown oats, I understand that a huge production could never get enough gluten-free oats to meet their demand.   They are using a technology that has been honed and perfected in manufacturing processes for quite a while, which i suspect may be an automated optical/mechanical sorting, or something similar.  Obviously they are going to stay tight lipped about that trade secret, but it would make me feel better if they at least released info on how often things are tested, etc.  Bottom line, though, is if they didn't have total confidence this was FDA compliant, they wouldn't do it.  So, after a while of them being out I may try them.  A lot of gluten-free cereals lack in fiber and such and it will be nice to have another option.

If you all would read the links! Lol

"ELISA testing, performed after sorting and once the groats are milled into flour, validates that each batch is indeed clean and free of gluten."

"Note that the cleaned oat flour will be transported to manufacturing facilities and used on dedicated (and enclosed) lines "

      This Common Blood Pressure Drug Can Mimic Celiac Disease Symptoms

      Dang. I had a moment of hope that I could change my BP med and get off the gluten-free diet. Nope. More seriously, I hadn't seen this articles about this phenomenon before. This is one of the possible answers for people who post here about having celiac symptoms (including biopsy) but normal IgA levels, especially if they are saying that diet isn't helping...

      Zaalouk moroccan eggplant salad

      oops. I didn't see that before posting or I would have at least referenced it. The two recipes are pretty similar, but I think the newer one is a little simpler/faster. Next time though I will search more before posting.

I know I am not consuming gluten or coming into contact with gluten from any other source. I will stop touching/tossing bread outside! My diet has not changed, and I do not have reactions to the things I am currently eating, which are few in number. My auto immune reaction just seems so severe. The abdominal pain is extreme. It takes a lot out of me. I guess I will be this way for the rest of my life if I ever happen to come into contact with gluten? I appreciate the help.

I also did have implants ( I didn't know and sense not properly in my medical. Neither did surgeon)in 2006 and there was a leak 2023 during the same time I was dealing with covid, digestive issues, eyes and skin.Considering I " should  be fine" not consuming gluten/wheat, taking vitamins for sibo and STILL feeling terrible.It has to be parasites. I also take individual eye drops prescribed, could there be an issue there? Anyways my pcp thinks I need therapy because again they don't acknowledge my digestive issues because in my records it shows im fine, hintz the reason I had to go back to bay area hospital:(  I thought skin issues maybe sibo related but I feel and have seen and seriously trying not to think about it because it's disgusting.

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
