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

Malt comes from barley, so it's definitley a nono, sorry....

Cocoa pebbles are gluten-free though! :)

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 :-)!!!!

      @Scatterbrain, Thiamine Vitamin B1 and amino acid Taurine work together.  Our bodies can make Taurine from meats consumed.  Our bodies cannot make Thiamine and must consume thiamine from food.  Meat is the best source of B vitamins like Thiamine.   Vegetarians may not make sufficient taurine since they don't eat meat sources of taurine.  Seaweed is the best vegetarian source of taurine. Vegetarians may not consume sufficient Thiamine since few veggies are good sources.  Whole grains, legumes, and nuts and seeds contain thiamine.  Many of these sources can be hard to digest and absorb for people with Celiac disease.   You may find taking the forms of thiamine called Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) and a B Complex will give the benefits you're looking for better than taurine alone.

      @Jmartes71, I went to Doterra's site and had a look around.  The Doterra TerraZyme supplement really jumped out at me.  Since we, as Celiacs, often have digestive problems, I looked at the ingredients.  The majority of the enzymes in this supplement are made using black mold, Aspergillus!  Other enzymes are made by yeast Saccharomyces!  Considering the fact that Celiac often have permeable intestines (leaky gut syndrome), I would be very hesitant to take a product like this.  Although there may not be live black mold or yeast in the product, the enzymes may still cause an immune system response which would definitely cause inflammation throughout the body.   Skin, eyes, and intestines are all made from the same basic type of cells.  Your skin on the outside and eyes can reflect how irritated the intestines are on the inside.  Our skin, eyes, and intestines all need the same vitamins and nutrients to be healthy:  Vitamin A, Niacin B3 and Tryptophan, Riboflavin B2, Biotin B7, Vitamin C, and Omega Threes.  Remember that the eight B vitamins work together.  Just taking high doses of just one, vitamin like B12, can cause a deficiency in the others.  Taking high doses of B12 can mask a Folate B9 deficiency.  If you take B12, please take a B Complex, too.  Thiamine B1 can be taken in high doses safely without toxicity.  Thiamine is needed by itself to produce energy so every cell in the body can function, but Thiamine also works with the other B vitamins to make life sustaining enzymes and digestive enzymes.  Deficiencies in either Niacin, Vitamin C, or Thiamine can cause digestive problems resulting in Pellagra, Scurvy, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi.   If you change your diet, you will change your intestinal microbiome.  Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet, a Paleo diet, will starve out SIBO bacteria.  Thiamine keeps bacteria in check so they don't get out of control as in SIBO.  Thiamine also keeps MOLDS and Yeasts from overgrowth.   Menopause symptoms and menstrual irregularities are symptomatic of low Vitamin D.   Doctors are not as knowledgeable about malnutrition as we need them to be.  A nutritionist or dietician would be more helpful.   Take control of your diet and nutrition.  Quit looking for a pill that's going to make you feel better overnight.  The Celiac journey is a marathon, not a sprint.   "Let food be your medicine, and let medicine be your food."

      The Lindt (Lindor) dairy-free oat milk truffles are definitely gluten-free, and (last time I checked) so are the white chocolate truffles and the mint chocolate truffles.

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      Anyone experimented with Taurine supplementation either via electrolyte powders or otherwise? Thanks
