I imagine taht CC risk is gonna be much higher in the first few batches taht come out and fall out to a more normal risk level with time.

now if only i liked cocoa flavored cereal :P but thats terrific...i'm pretty sure i found the gluten-free trix the other day at target...i didnt buy any cuz i wanted to make sure that GM would actually list wheat/gluten if there was any...but according to the box they are clean with the exception of natural flavors i think...

Trix have Wheat Starch in them. Just went out to the Generral Mills website to look at ingredients has wheat starch at the end of the ingredients.

Yes Trix does, but the rumor is they are changing the formula and removing the wheat, just like they did with teh cocoa puffs. Some ppl reported they have seen gluten-free trix in the little boxes.

Nickie Newbie

Well that would be good. I hate fruity pebbles and cocoa pebbles, trix are not even my favorite but they are better then those two.

I think I found the gluten-free Cocoa Puffs at Kroger yesterday. I didn't buy them though. We still have a ton of cereal to get through.

I got our Gluten Free box of Cocoa Puffs on Saturday, my son had eaten them everyday. I also noticed that the Wal-mart Great Value Brand of Cocoa Puffs are gluten free as well, but warn of cross contamination. <_<

I was at my local Albertsons, and though I don't even go down the cereal/bread aisle anymore I thought I'd look. They had new ones and old ones side by side. The new ones do say "New More chocolatey flavor" and the old ones have wheat starch and Oats in them. I didn't buy any, I can't abide the taste of chocolate cereal, but I did look just to know that there was at least one thing in that aisle I can eat. The Trix still had wheat starch, no sign of new ones there.

YAY!!!! I love that you took pics.

This was my favorite cereal when I was a kid. My grandma would play "the birdy game" with me every morning with my Cocoa Puffs to feed me breakfast. :)

Im glad my pictures brought so much joy to you all! :lol:

This is great news!!!!

I used to LOVE Trix!

What is the purpose of wheat starch anyway?

Maybe I am being selfish, but, I really wish there were not so many things

that I and others like me cannot eat because of how they are made.

Thanks!

THIS HAS MADE MY BAD DAY SO MUCH BETTER!!!!!!!! LOVE U GUYS! ANY OTHER POPULAR FOODS PEOPLE DONT REALIZE ARE gluten-free?? I THOUGHT IF IT SAID "MODIFIED" STARTCH IT WASNT SAFE???????????????????

jmengert Enthusiast

Modified food starch is one of those things that we have to check on. In the US, though, most often times it is made from corn, but we should check on it just in case.

VydorScope Proficient

In this case it says Modified CORN starch, so its safe. If it said Modified Food Starch you would need to check UNLESS its a company like Kraft, General Mills, and etc that will disclose any gluten sources right in thier ingreditents.

tHANKS FOR THE INFO... I FEEL BETTER KNOWING THAT NOW.

tHANKS FOR THE INFO... I FEEL BETTER KNOWING THAT NOW.

We eat very few "specialtiy" gluten-free foods, most of our foods are mainstream due to cost. For the most part we have just eliminated the grain group. Our store brand, Kroger, makes a lot of foods that are safe, and much cheaper then what you see at Whole Foods/Wild Oats. Just can not beat cearl at $1.86 per box for example. Yogurt at 5/$1 and so on. If we ever move, I want to stay near a Kroger!

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
