Coco Pebbles & Coco Dyno Bites

I've been sick all week and I just found out my Malt O Meal Coco Dyno Bites now have wheat. Does anyone one know when this happened? I also just heard that Coco Pebbles are no longer safe. Can anyone shed some light on this?

I had no idea Coca Pebbles changed anything. I have not purchased it in awhile. I hope someone on here can verify this.

I think perhaps it's Cocoa Puffs, not pebbles, that you heard are unsafe. This happened a while ago, they added wheat starch. Rumor has it though that they are switching or have switched the formula back to being gluten free. I believe Malt O Meal changed their cereals to include wheat about a year ago. They now claim that none of their cereals are safe for Celiacs. At least this was the case when I called them about 8 months ago.

I read it in another post, i cant seem to ccp it over here so I am just going to bump up the thread that someone seen it was no longer gluten free.

I just bought a box of Cocoa Pebbles and they are still safe (at least the box I got).

Cocoa pebbles are "safe" as of the box we just bought, but ALWAYS carry a CC risk, so use caution.

Good to hear, I use Cocoa Pebbles for my chocolate fixes.

Cocoa Puffs has in Caps under list of ingredients: contains wheat

My new box of Cocoa Pebbles are "safe"

Are rice crispies safe?

Not usually. Definitely not Kellogg's. There are a few safe brands, Erewhon, Kinnikrisp. Check the labels for malt. Most mainstream cereals contain wheat, oat flour or malt (barley malt) and therefore are not suitable for a gluten-free diet.

I bought both Cocoa and Fruity Pebbles a couple of weeks ago and they were safe. Cocoa Puffs are not safe.

I bought a box of fruity pebbles and cocoa pebbles, I ate the whole box of cocoa pebbles and was fine but when I ate the fruity pebbles I got sick. The box looked safe as far as the ingredients list.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.
    • Scott Adams
      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
