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!

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.

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies. Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
