Rice Chex Cereal Reformulated To Be Gluten Free!

General Mills is reformulating their rice chex cereal. They are taking out the barley malt syrup and replacing it with molasses. They are also going to be producing the rice chex cereal in a dedicated facility! The new boxes say "gluten free" on them. Be careful when you shop because some of the old non gluten free formula boxes are still on shelves in stores. YUM! :)

Great to hear about Rice Chex now being Gluten-Free. I've already been through two boxes.

I wonder if they could also reformulate Corn Chex?

I did call General Mills regarding the Rice Chex to see if the product is tested and if they have a definition of Gluten-Free.

They did not want to provide any information regarding Testing or Parts Per Million and only indicated that Gluten-Free means zero gluten.

Personally, I would feel very safe with this product.

Finally found some last week at my local Walmart. Now they're out of it. Luckily I got the last two boxes. At long last, real cereal!

I finally remembered to write that email to General Mills to say thank you for the reformulation. I am loving buying cereal at the grocery store! Here is the link if you'd like to thank them too:

I also sent General Mills a Thank You.

In addition, I said that I would also buy any of their Corn based cereals if they could also be made Gluten Free.

Let's hope they are considering that possibility.

      You should be fine.  You may start feeling better within a few days.  Someone who is very low in thiamine may notice improvement within hours.   Did you get the NeuroMag  or another magnesium supplement?
    • xxnonamexx
      Yes Bobs redmill cgf oatmeal I started when I became gluten-free. So taking all 3 with breakfast should work? Will I notice any reactions getting used to these or should I be fine. Thanks

      Hello, @pilber309, welcome to the forum! Are you currently consuming dairy?   You mentioned something about lots of yogurt and cheese, but did you cut it out or are you eating lots of it?   Could you clarify please? Some people with Celiac react to casein, the protein in dairy the same as to gluten with antibodies and villi damage. 
    • knitty kitty
      You may want to skip the oatmeal.  I believe you're trialing a gluten free diet while waiting for an appointment with your doctor in the new year and doing a gluten challenge then.  Some people with Celiac disease react to the protein in oats called avenin the same as to gluten.  Cross contamination between oats and gluten containing grains is possible.  Are you consuming certified gluten free oats?   I would hate for you to have a reaction to the oats and blame it on the vitamins. Yes, it will be fine to take them all together.  I take mine all together, B Complex, Benfotiamine and TTFD Thiamine with breakfast. If you're really anxious about it, just take the B Complex and Benfotiamine at breakfast and the Thiamax at lunch.  You won't have to take a second B Complex with the Thiamax.

      So I purchased the Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine along with the Thiamax. I will take along with my Super B Complexes. I stopped taking the multi vitamins. Should I take all 3 vitamins/supplements together with my morning oatmeal breakfast? Do you think I will experience any bad symptoms when taking them.
