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.

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.

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. :)

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???????????????????

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.

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.

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!

      Oh my......will the danger never end? It has seemed like no matter what we do or have done the odds were/are against us. Next they'll tell us that just looking at wheat will be dangerous. Oh well....hang in there.

      Why Celiac Diagnosis Still Takes Years—and How to Change That

      Our understanding of that is very incomplete at this time. There are theories and it seems to involve multiple factors. We know there is a genetic component but that is far from the total answer since 40% of the general population has the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only 1% actually does. Other suspects are the indiscriminate use of antibiotics...

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
