gluten-free Breakfast Cereal & Chocolate?


kasia

Recommended Posts

kasia Rookie

Hi there,

I posted this earlier & it appears to have vanished, so if I double post my apologies!

I'm from the UK & we are visiting WDW in May (which appears to be coeliac heaven!).

Just wondered if anyone could recommend some gluten-free breakfast cereal for an adult which isn't too sweet & is relatively healthy - can you get a gluten-free porridge type cereal (oatmeal but without the oats?).

Also I'm a bit of a chocoholic & would love to know of some great chocolate that I can snack on.

And finally ....... do any Floridians know the nearest store to get Redbridge beer please? We're staying in a villa near Formosa Gardens (highway 192 - is the area Kissimmee?). The gluten-free beer & lager here leaves a lot to be desired, & I'm looking forward to trying Redbridge, as it's not available in Britain.

Thanks for your help

Kate

dear husband has been gluten-free for 20 yrs and is so delighted with redbridge beer. to find it we went on the manufacturers site Ans . Bush and found the link to it. it also has a link to find where it's sold. i know that walmart's has it in my area and that stores in fla were listed. Can't spell anhauser correctly, so that's why i did not add the link . good luck. try www.anhauserbush.com

Bob's Red Mill has a Mighty Tasty Hot Cereal that is a comb of corn and other grains and is cooked with water on the stove. I add fruit and raisins and cinnamon. After cooking I add milk and a pinch of brown sugar.

Both Dolfin and Dacoba have some very interesting ingredients added, rosemary, rose hips, cinnamon, earl grey, etc.

Well, this isn't an adult cereal, but it might be perfect for a chocoholic! Cocoa Pebbles is gluten-free.

I also eat the Bob's cereal mentioned above.

We buy Redbridge at the grocery. I don't drink it, but non-gluten-free hubby loves it! He never used to be a beer drinker.

The great chocolate I buy is local to Ohio, but if you see a Kroger where you are, they sometimes carry it since they're out of Ohio-- Esther Price Chocolate. Other than that, I like the cheap stuff -- Reece's Pieces or Peanut Butter M&M's are my favorite. There are also good chocolate bars at places like Wild Oats or Whole Foods (you can search the internet for locations near where you'll be).

Lots of pure chocolate is gluten free - my favorite brands are Tropical Source and Dagoba, but I found Pralus today, and it's quite good.

Usually the admin will delete the re-posting, but since your re-posting is the one with responses, I have requested that your original post is deleted.

Hi Laura

How odd. My post did not appear I posted the 1st post at 8.36am & did not repost until 2.26pm having checked the board 5 times and my 1st post was not there. Very strange? BTW I did click on my user name & the post was there, just not on the board (5 hours later?)

As you can tell from my messgage I do not double post, but it really wasn't there. Do posts not get added immediately (maybe because the 1st post would have been posted in the middle of the night US time).

The second post showed up immediately, & when I checked the forum later I saw my 1st post further down.

I did try to delete the 1st post but couldn't

Sorry.

Kate

      @Scott Adams That's actually exactly what I ended up asking for— vodka tonic with Titos.  I saw on their website that Tito's is certified gluten-free (maybe many of the clear vodkas are, I don't know, I just happened to look up Tito's in advance). I should have actually specified the 'splash' though, because I think with the amount of tonic she put in there, it did still end up fairly sweet.  Anyway, I think I've almost got this drink order down!

      Be interesting to see the effects of dairy reintroduction with gluten. As well as milk protein sensitivity in and of itself the casein part particularly has been shown to mimic gluten in about 50% of celiacs. Keep us posted!

      She has been dairy free for six years, so she’d already been dairy free for two years at her last testing and was dairy free for the entire gluten challenge this year as well (that had positive results). However, now that we’re doing another biopsy in six weeks, we decided to do everything we can to try to “see” the effects, so we decided this past week to add back in dairy temporarily for breakfast (milk and cereal combo like you said).

      Hi Christiana, Many thanks for your response.  Interestingly, I too cannot eat wheat in France without feeling effects (much less than in the US, but won't indulge nonetheless).  I also understand children are screened for celiac in Italy prior to starting their education. Wise idea as it seems my grandson has the beginning symptoms (several celiacs in his dad's family), but parents continue to think he's just being difficult.  Argh.  There's a test I took that diagnosed gluten sensitivity in 2014 via Entero Labs, and am planning on having done again.  Truth be told, I'm hoping it's the bromine/additives/preservatives as I miss breads and pastas terribly when home here in the states!  Be well and here's to our guts healing ❤️

      Lol that’s so true! Hope you get clarity, it’s tough when there’s doubt. There’s so much known about celiac disease with all the scientific research that’s been done so far yet practically and clinically there’s also so much unknown, still. Out of curiosity what’s her dairy consumption like? Even compared to early years to now? Has that changed? Calcium is dependent in the mechanism of antigen presenting cells in the gut. High calcium foods with gluten grains can initiate inflammation greater.  This is why breakfast cereals and milk combo long term can be a ticking time bomb for genetically susceptible celiacs (not a scientific statement by any means but my current personal opinion based on reasoning at present). Milk and wheat are the top culprits for food sensitivity. Especially in childhood. There are also patient cases of antibodies normalising in celiac children who had milk protein intolerance/ delayed type allergy. Some asymptomatic. There were a couple of cases of suspected celiacs that turned out to have milk protein intolerance that normalised antibodies on a gluten containing diet. Then there were others that only normalised antibodies once gluten and milk was eliminated. Milk kept the antibodies positive. Celiac disease is complicated to say the least.
