Berry Berry Kix

I thought I read on this site that Berry Berry Kix was gluten free. However, it says nothing about that on the box when I finally found it at Super Target. Anyone know?

I have not seen this product is stores for a very long time, but I believe it was reformulated so that it is no longer sweetened with barley malt.

In other words, the entire farm field to grocery store shelf process has not been scrutinized and micro-managed to insure gluten free status as is the case with Rice Chex, but the one gluten containing ingredient has been removed from Berry Berry Kix and replaced with a non-gluten ingredient.

There are several other posts here about the berry kix. I contacted General Mills about this product. I was told that the only certified gluten-free cereal is the rice chex at this time.

I did read the label & it appears okay but again CC issues mmust be considered if you are a sensitive celiac.

Several people on here have been devouring this cereal with no problems that can be felt! I did get a box & had one bowl . I think for me the dye's caused me to get a migraine.. The milk turned red from the red dye. For that reason I will not buy them again. Not because I had any gastro problems but because of the dyes......

      Brilliant news for British Coeliacs!   Colin was launched in 1990 so I am fortunate in that I was able to try this amazing chocolate swissroll cake before my diagnosis.  But the good news is he has now appeared in the Gluten Free aisle at M&S, and also is available home delivery through Ocado. https://www.marksandspencer.com/food/made-without-wheat-gluten-free-colin-the-caterpillar/p/fdp60761680

      Re: Michelin star.  To give an example, the Ritz Hotel in London has two Michelin stars.   Here's another article about Michelin stars - from our own archive.

      Very helpful @knitty kitty.  Thank you.  I am trying to remember what vitamin so alarmed my GP and I have a feeling it was A or E.  I remember reading the pills contained well over the 100 per cent RDA of whatever the vitamin was. One thing I'd love to ask you that has always intrigued me.  One day when my anxiety was completely through the roof.  I 'felt the fear and did it anyway' - a phrase other anxiety sufferers may be aware of, which I found a powerful tool in my recovery -  and visited a friend's house, even though I felt so wretched.  For some reason I craved milk and drank two whole pints of milk in quick succession while I was with her - to this day I can't think why, because I don't usually drink milk 'neat' - I like it in tea or coffee, or hot chocolate.  But I distinctly remember within a couple of hours feeling absolutely fine again for quite a while.  I've often wondered was it down to this milk, which I've since understood contains quite decent levels of B12.  Would that have really worked so fast?

      @trents  Good question.  We are strict at home, although I have to admit I've eating the odd thing  that turned out to have been made in a shared facility.  But that  is very unusual for me,  Therefore I have concluded that eating out must be the issue, which I do a lot more of now.  But I do need to put it to the test, and I hope to do this by not eating out for a few months.  I'll let you know in September when I have my next blood tests done.  😊

      Thanks very much for taking the time to write this. I have been pretty worried so appreciate reading any advice. Yes, the endoscopy will include a biopsy, and we have hopefully found a good pediatric gastro to guide us through it all.  Will also run the HLA typing - I have the swabs ready to go.
