Rice Krispies/gushers/ Wierd Cravings..?

[SammieMtz]

I was watching tv earlier and i seen rice krispies and now i have a sudden craving for them but ive always hated them and same with gushers.... does anyone know if these 2 are gluten-free..? also does anyone else get wierd cravings..?

Yeah, I just had beef for lunch. I haven't really eaten very much red meat in the last several years, but I haven't actually eaten beef in at least 3-4 years. I don't like it. For some reason I saw beef taquitos at the store and I HAD TO HAVE THEM. They were so good. I take iron supplements and I've been anemic for a few years, and I've still never ever had the urge to eat beef (or any red meat other than bacon/prosciutto for flavoring). What the heck is happening to me?

Kelloggs Rice Krispies have barley malt or something like that. I finally found that Erewhon stuff that's gluten-free, though.

I've been buying the rice crispies that have a Koala on them and I make my own rice crispie trats from them.....I always liked them though!!!!!!!

I have noticed that I am always hungry now. Used too, I never felt hungry at all. I chalk it up to healing!!!

I ask my husband all the time, "So this is what it's like to be hungry, I had forgotten the feeling."

I guess it's normal for us to start actually being hungry and having cravings, as our stomachs and intestines finally start to heal!

if it's the fruit gushers by Betty Crocker, then yes, they are gluten free, but always read the label, they are a General Mills food and GM will not hide gluten in their labels.

I get Erewhon rice crispies (make sure you get the box that says gluten free) and make my own rice crispies.

Oh yeah, Envirokids? They make "rice krispie treats" already in bar form. They are pretty good. I'm been on a mad quest to get gluten-free rice krispie treats ever since going gluten free.

haha im very glad im not the only one having these wierd cravings... and thank you for telling me if they're gluten-free or not anyways how do u guys keep from "over-eating?" perhaps iim just not used 2 being hungry all the time... although even tho im eating more im loosing alot of weight.

I'm doing the same thing. Iwent gluten-free about 2 months ago. I am hungry all the time. I seem to snack alot. But before I went gluten-free I was never hungry. I also lost weight. I was told it is kind of the Palm Beach diet effect. It should level out. I go through stages of starving, then days when I don't really want anything. I guess it all levels out in the end.

Try making rice krispy treats out of cocoa pebbles or fruity pebbles -- both are gluten-free !

The Kellogs brand has gluten. Don't know about gushers.
