Need Help With Berry Berry Kix!

[LRgirl]

Hi,

I'd like to buy Berry Berry Kix, but I can't find it. I see that Amazon has it. But, It's not the same newly designed box that appears on the General Mills website. So, I'm afraid to buy it and get the old recipe.

Thank you so much!

I have not found this in my area at all. I keep looking. Keep in mind the box does not say it is gluten-free nor does the company. However, it does not contain gluten ingredients (per website) and many people eat it without problems. I think the old box might have but I do not know that for sure. Just an FYI.

Good Luck,

Hez

Thanks, Hez! I'm going to call General Mills to see where I can get it. I'll at least get some kind of explanation as to why they don't make this cereal more available. I'll post the response.

Hi Hez,

I talked to General Mills yesterday. He found two Giants near me in Maryland that sold it. If you call, maybe he can find some stores for you that carry the cereal. Here's the number I called:1-800-248-7310. I asked him why it was so hard to find. He said something about it being up to the food distributors. I went to one and found it right away! Thanks for your advice about the two boxes. They had both old and new boxes. The old box still has oats as an ingredient. The new just says corn ingredients. Since it's a new look and formula, maybe they'll start distributing it to more stores. I ate it with no problems.

Good luck!

I contacted General Mills & spoke to Rhonda. SHe said that the only cereal that is considered gluten-free & labeled as gluten-free is the rice chex. no others can they certifiy to be gluten-free. Just a heads up that if you are super-sensitive you may not want to eat this . She said if I thought it looked safe to eat then it was my judgement but GM would not say it is gluten-free.

sorry I was excited to try this too.....

Thanks, mamaw! It turns out after eating it for week, I started getting sick. I wasn't glutened, but the high frutose corn syrup made me sick. For some reason, I can't tolerate it at all. I'd hoped that I would be able to eat it again because it's been a while since I had eaten HFCS. I guess I'll keep looking.
