I personally haven't tried anything from Bob, but there have been several threads I noticed about concerns with cc and his products. I think the results have been a mixed bag, some react and some have no problems.

I have tried their hot cereals and haven't had any problems, but I didn't have any obvious symptoms when I went gluten free. My daughter has become more sensitive though. She got glutened a couple weeks ago.

I have tried several times a hot cereal by Erewhon. It's called Brown Rice Cream and it's gluten-free. The only ingredient is Organic Brown Rice. It isn't the "oatmeal" that you are looking for, it's more like cream of wheat.

Have you tried Ancient Harvest Quinoa Flakes?

I haven't actually eaten them yet as a hot cereal but they are delicious in breads & cookies. They look like a miniature oatmeal flake, & definitely add some of that yummy oatmeal texture in cooking, so if I were you I'd give them a try.

I do love hot oatmeal too but only in cool weather, & we haven't had much of that lately! (I'm in NC.)

Hope they do the trick!

bob's red mill has two factories - one is gluten free, the other isn't. some gluten free grains are made in the gluten factory, so make sure you don't get those (corn meal, carob are two i remember). i got very sick from both.

however, i have never gotten ill from anything from his gluten-free factory, and i am very sensitive. i use all his products for baking, and often.

Bob's Mighty Tasty gluten-free Hot Cereal is pretty good - heartier than just cream of rice or grits. I haven't noticed any reaction to it myself, so if you're willing to take a chance, I think it's a good hot cereal.

I got a bunch of samples of this recently, but I've been too nervous to try them... I may have to give it a shot because I like a good hot cereal in the mornings and I can't afford to replace the Barkat Porridge right now... (after shipping and handling it's over $11 for one tiny box)... eek. Soooooo seriously considering trying the Bob's Red Mill hot cereal...

nini - i promise you, i am very sensitive and have never reacted to anything by bob's except for the products that i mis-read as literally gluten free, but not made in their gluten free facility. free samples = great!

I react to Bob's.

I have had a serious reaction to Bob's Red Mill.

When I was eating grains, I really liked Cream of Rice. I would put maple syrup, walnuts and cinnamon on it. I never had a gluten issue with it.

I seem to react to very small amounts, but have not reacted to any Bob's stuff. Some of Bob's gluten-free stuff has a big mention of it being gluten-free on the label and others, like corn meal, seem gluten-free, but don't have a symbol on the front. I think that's the stuff that isn't produces in a gluten-free factory.

I also have not had problems with Arrowhead Mills stuff.

I second Ancient Harvest Quinoa Flakes. I love them - but I have had several people mention they can smell them (when I make them - at work, etc) and that the smell is odd to them, and then they don't want to try them. I admit I notice a distinct scent, but it isn't off-putting to me.

      Daughter has started gluten free diet this week as per gastroenterologists suggestion. However says she feels more tired and like she’s been hit by a train. I suggested it could be the change to gluten free or just stress from the endoscopy last week catching up with her. Just wondering if feeling more tired is a normal reaction at this stage. I suppose it’s possible some gluten might have been present without realising. Have tried to reassure her it’s not going to resolve symptoms overnight

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.
