For those of you who need a Cheerio's substitute I found some good cereal called Perky O's....it comes in frosted which I like alot and Apple Cinnamon which is pretty good...they have a plain one as well but I have not tried it.

Yes, I really like them too. I like the frosted better than the apple cinnamon. I personally think they don't taste that great in milk b/c they have a weird film on them. They are great as a snack by themselves with O.J. Yum!

As I am reading this post, my other hand is digging through a container of Frosted Perky O's sitting on my desk. I bought them for the first time on Saturday at the new store in Dillsburg. I cannot believe how good they tasted. I miss frosted cereals so these make me happy. I do not know how they taste with milk, I do dry cereal as a snack alot.

PS--I was really iffy on buying the cereal at first, it was $6 a box.... :unsure: but I can see purchasing it again.

I haven't found those yet... I did try the Glutino O's and they weren't that good... kinda wimpy in my opinion

They should make you perky, we can't find them locally, but if you get 10 on gluten free mall, you get a case discount, we buy 10 bokes every month or so... SOO yummy

I haven't tried these, but thanks for sharing that you like them. I will try and find them. SO far we did try the Glutino "cheerios" and they weren't very good at all. My son would probably love these. THanks alot.

They have them on gluten free mall, and you can mix&match flavors I think, i get all plain becasue they are the only that don't have corn in them, but I also like the flavor a lot more than the other two.

Yeah, these are definately good enough (maybe a bit too exepnsive thoug) to eat for someone that isn't evn on a gluten-free diet.

Great! Glad to hear of all the good responses to this cereal, as my son is 11 months old and the "cheerios age" is about to kick in. He is a gluten free kid. So now I know a cereal I can give him. Thanks!

I think they're linked with Enjoylife?

LOVE the applecinnamon. I was SO missing cereal with taste!!!

They're a great grab and go breakfast - dry.

My two year old loves the frosted Perky O's. But my daughter only likes the Cinnamon Ceros (Heartlands Best I think???) I think I've started something terrible though now that I gave them some Cocoa Puffs for a treat yesterday. Going back to the less sugary cereal is going to be a bugger. I've had such a sweet tooth this pregnancy, and love sugary cereal at night, my kids are definately reaping the benefits of this! :P

      Recovery from gluten challenge

      I’m wondering if anyone has had any experience with the gluten challenge. My teenager completed a gluten challenge over the summer, it ended up being 10 weeks although she stopped being consistent eating gluten after 6. Her previous endoscopy was negative but this past August it was positive after the gluten challenge. If you have done the gluten challenge, ...

      Airborne Gluten?

      Hello everyone, I was on here a few months ago trying to figure out if I was reacting to something other than gluten, to which a very helpful response was that it could be xanthin or guar gum. Since then, I have eaten items with both of those ingredients in it and I have not reacted to it, so my mystery reaction to the Digiorno pizza remains...

      Rectal pain

      I was suffering from PF just previous to being dx with celiac disease about 25 yr. ago but have not been troubled with it since. Not sure what the connection between the two is of if there is one. But I do know it is a very painful condition that takes your breath away when it strikes.

      Rectal pain

      I have dealt with proctalgia fugax on and off for a year now. It feels almost paralyzing during an episode and they have started lasting longer and longer, sometimes 20+ minutes. I was recently diagnosed with celiac disease and wonder if the 2 are related. I did request a prescription for topical nitroglycerin for my PF episodes and that has helped tremendously...

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      Hey @Butch68, I also have dermatitis herpetiformis but don't suffer from it anymore. I used to drink Guinness too but I drink Cider now when out on social occasions. I assume you are in Ireland or the UK. If it's any good to you ... 9 White Deer based in Cork brew a range of gluten-free products including a gluten-free Stout. I'm not sure if they...

      Recovery from gluten challenge

      By Kirita · Posted

      I’m wondering if anyone has had any experience with the gluten challenge. My teenager completed a gluten challenge over the summer, it ended up being 10 weeks although she stopped being consistent eating gluten after 6. Her previous endoscopy was negative but this past August it was positive after the gluten challenge. If you have done the gluten challenge, how long did it take you to feel back to normal? It took about two months before she got “glutened” again but now she’s having difficult coming back from that and has a lot of fatigue. I’m hoping someone has some advice!

      Airborne Gluten?

      By annamarie6655 · Posted

      Hello everyone, I was on here a few months ago trying to figure out if I was reacting to something other than gluten, to which a very helpful response was that it could be xanthin or guar gum.    Since then, I have eaten items with both of those ingredients in it and I have not reacted to it, so my mystery reaction to the Digiorno pizza remains.    HOWEVER, I realized something recently- the last time I got glutened and the most recent time I got glutened, I truly never ate anything with gluten in it. But i did breathe it in.    The first time was a feed barrel for my uncle’s chickens- all of the dust came right up, and most of what was in there was wheat/grains. The second time was after opening a pet food bag and accidentally getting a huge whiff of it.    When this happens, I tend to have more neurological symptoms- specifically involuntary muscle spasms/jerks everywhere. It also seems to cause migraines and anxiety as well. Sometimes, with more airborne exposure, I get GI symptoms, but not every time.    My doctor says he’s never heard of it being an airborne problem, but also said he isn’t well versed in celiac specifics. I don’t have the money for a personal dietician, so I’m doing the best I can.    is there anyone else who has experienced this, or gets similar neurological symptoms?
