Does anyone know if Cocoa Krispies are gluten free? I read the label and it lists "Malt Flavoring" I assume that's not ok. But does anyone know forsure ???

Thanks,

Sarah

Is this true? Cocoa pebbles are really gluten-free? There is really a mainstream junk food cereal that is gluten-free? I didn't know that! I am so excited!

Thank you!

I have a serious texture issues when it comes to cereal! Since childhood, I'm 42 now, I've loved Cocoa Krispies and I don't gag on them like most cereals. I was thrilled that Chex is gluten-free, but I gag after a few bites. My husband came home tonight with a box of fruity pebbles and and as always I went to read the ingredient list. He took the box from me and turned it around to expose the big GLUTEN FREE tag. You would've thought I was 5 yrs old! Fruity pebbles is the other cereal I can eat without gagging!! Hopefully Cocoa Krispies becomes gluten-free soon since I'm not too fond of the taste of Cocoa Pebbles.

Welcome Lisa :)

You may want to try Envirokidz Kaola Crisp Cereal. The cocoa flavor is more mild than some of the other chocolate cereals, but does have a similar texture to rice crispies - might be worth a shot.

Also, just so you know - you are replying to an old thread - the original poster hasn't logged in for six years and is not likely to see your response.

Thank you! I think I'll give the Envirkidz a try! My problem is when a cereal becomes soggy quick. I'm not a huge cereal eater, but it nice to have one for the occasional craving.

Thanks for the heads up on this being an old post; I noticed that before replying but thought if someone else stumbled across this topic when using google as I did that it might help. Obviously I'm new to the site and so far absolutely loving it :-)!!!!

      Is it gluten?

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
