Cheerio's is primary Oats, and therefor can not be safe, unless you just like the shape? I have seen gluten free ceral in that O shape on the shelf in my store, but do not recall the name....

My girls really like these, they say they are a little sweet too. They look enough like Cherrrios to fool small children, but once they are about 2 you have to say "but they won't make you sick, and they are round, and they taste yummy" and all of that is true. ;)

There is also PerkyO's and one other brand that have the cheerios look. I have not tried them so I do not know what they taste like.

I bought a box yesterday of something called ceros. Not sure what they taste like but they were cinnamon flavored and cheap!

I'm also looking for some good tasting Cheerios. I tried the Amaranth O's for my 4-year old Celiac Olivia. They got a huge thumbs down from Olivia. I tasted them and I thoought they tasted like mold. Any suggestions???

Thanks ladies..

If I try a good brand, I'll be sure to post

I've been buying some prepared foods lately for my 2yr old and he is sticking his nose up to everything..I'm getting a little anxious because his eating has gone down hill...I hope he warms up to this new diet soon!

At first I was giving him oatmeal..I thought I read a recent study deemed oats safe....crud :(

Glutino makes a Honey Nut O shaped cereal that is pretty good. My daughter likes the plain PerkyO's which are made from whole grain Sorghum and perhaps a little more like Cheerios. They also make an apple cinnamon and a frosted variety, but I've not had an opportunity to taste them.

      It seems crazy to me that even when you call a manufacturer they can't, in this day and age, answer the simple question about what exactly is in their product!!

      Thank you so much for your response! It's been a challenging journey with this condition!

      Thank you very much for your response. Since I got this advice I called Pepsid manufacturer and they could not give a definite answer. Basically,  there is no final testing and they do not guarantee anything. So I went and got farmotidine from Wagmans that was marked gluten-free and also our pediatrician gave us a prescription for farmotidine that was also gluten-free. So there are other options there thankfully. In case someone will come across of this dilemma.

      A nutritionist typically focuses on general wellness, lifestyle guidance, and preventative health. A dietician allowed to provide medical nutrition therapy. When i was diagnosed there was zero support and few dieticians and Dr understood celiac disease.  I typically guide a newly diagnosed celiac to a whole food diet to easily transition to the gluten free lifestyle

      Your gluten-free journey sounds like a lot of trial and error—especially working in a deli where gluten exposure is constant! The eye-watering issue could be an airborne gluten sensitivity (like flour dust irritating your eyes) or even a mild wheat allergy, since you’re around it daily. A daily antihistamine (like Claritin or Zyrtec) might help if it’s allergy-related, but avoiding airborne gluten as much as possible (masking, washing hands/face often) is key. It’s great you’re tracking triggers—high-fiber foods and certain gluten-free substitutes (like those tortillas or PB pretzels) can sometimes cause similar symptoms due to additives or digestive adjustments. For travel, pack safe snacks (protein...
