gluten-free Breakfast Cereal & Chocolate?

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.

your post did not disappear; you just did not have any responses yet on that thread. Please refrain from duplicate postings. At any time, you can click on your user name, and click on your threads or your posts to find things you have written. That is one way to find them.

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.

Thanks,

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

      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...

      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.

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      By Russ H · Posted

      This treatment looks promising. Its aim is to provoke immune tolerance of gluten, possibly curing the disease. It passed the phase 2 trial with flying colours, and I came across a post on Reddit by one of the study volunteers. Apparently, the results were good enough that the company is applying for fast track approval.  Anokion Announces Positive Symptom Data from its Phase 2 Trial Evaluating KAN-101 for the Treatment of Celiac Disease https://www.reddit.com/r/Celiac/comments/1krx2wh/kan_101_trial_put_on_hold/
