hi, everybody, i'm trying really hard on finding "regular things" that are gluten free.

(I hate to pay double price just because there is a big "gluten free" thing on the box).

Im doing very good whit walmart products and Publix product (I send them an email to publix, and they send me a very big list of their gluten free products).,

:blink: but the thing is none of them include any cereal and thats what my son eats every morning.

so... the question is: any "regular" cereal that is gluten free (and whit no posible cross contamination?)

thx to evrebody!!

The only "regular" cereals that I've found that are gluten-free are some of the kid cereals and they are so full of junk I don't want to eat them anyway. My daughter however, likes Fruity Pebbles and Cocoa Pebbles, and we get Nature's Path Mesa Sunrise and Nature's Path Corn Flakes. Envirokids cereals are also some of my daughter's faves... and since places like Publix and WalMart are starting to carry them, the price isn't that bad.

I thought I herd somthing about the fruity pebbles not being gluten free anymore? We buy the cocoa pepples though. We also get one called dora cereal that someone on here mentioned....I hope they were right and I can't find anything bad on the lable but i am new at this...they are little rice stars with cinnamon.....I wasn't that fond of them but my 5 year old daughter loves them. Other than that we do buy some of the enviro kids cereals. We bought frosted perkios and my husband and I hated them but once again our daughter loves them. It would be nice though if some of the main stream "normal" cereals would make some things gluten free. It's disapointing to find all the corn and rice based cereals are bad.

I just bought a box of Enviro Kidz Amazon frosted flakes at Meijer for $2.99. They are good as well!

The box I bought last Friday was ... but it's always a good idea to read the box every time ... after all, they changed the Cocoa Puffs recipe with no warning!

I just noticed that about Cocoa Puffs. I'd been buying them for my daughter and when I went to pick up some more, I checked the label like normal and saw WHEAT. I was so mad I could have thrown a serious tantrum right there in the store!

As for Cocoa Puffs I think they must make them in two different locations. I have went in to the same grocery store one day, and find one without wheat, and then a week later, I will go in, and see one with wheat. I don't think its "old" versus "new" as each time I check, the exp. date is moving forward, but sometimes the labels have wheat, and some show it doesn't

Kind of odd, for a product to actually be different in ingredients. I've just been afraid to buy it, as I always wonder if the ones that don't show wheat truly are gluten free.

That, and my fear of walking down the cereal aisle... I'm also afraid to go over by the bakery/bread area. But then I'm Mr. paranoid... I make my wife go check out the cereals for me...

hi, and thanks :) to evrebody, I ve just bought a couples of dora post cereal , cocoa , fruity and frosty pebbles in supertarget (hanna I hope you have one close). I checked the ingrdients and all were ok.

But you know what?, I called to the companies anyway, and while Kraft is telling us to check the labes (read as: dont call for evrey single product); I think that they relly need to compromise as I told to the kind lady who answer the phone and Write GLUTEN FREE on the labels, because maybe I know how to read labels but Im lucky and when I go to my mothers house, or brother or friends they want to buy products to feed my son that wont make him sick and they dont know how to read labels.............

anyway maybe, just maybe if we keep calling the 1000 times a day theyll realize that we are a few with the same needs, and whay to pay to 3 ladies answering the phone when thay can write it on the boxes,.....

i dont know, maybe because im new in this........

anyway, thx again!!!!

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Theresa2407 · Posted

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Possible celiac - need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Celiac or not??

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
