A friend told me that Dora the Explorer cereal by General Mills is gluten free. Has anyone else heard this?

Thanks,

Carol

Yes, also gluten free by General Mills is Trix, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and Little Einsteins. We like the Dora stars around here as a great toddler snack.

Does anyone know if these cereals are also peanut/tree nut free? Thanks!

My 9 and 11 year olds eat Dora cereal as a snack. Their friends like it, too. It is peanut free for sure. I don't know about tree nuts.

Just to let everyone know the cereal is all processed on the same equipment that other cereal that contains wheat is. One of my friends(whos is a celiac) got really sick from the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse cereal. I have had the cereal and I didnt get sick but I just thought everyone should know!

I do know that if General Mills does not label the cereal with the "contains wheat" allergen statement and it is made on the same equipment that makes wheat products, the cleaning procedure is about ten times more rigerous than if they are changing between two wheat cereals. Not to say that CC can't happen, but it's is something GM watches out for.

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
