Rice Chex Box

Did anyone see the Rice Chex box? On the side panel, in beautiful large print it says "Gluten Free" It goes on to say what Celiac Disease is, and ends by saying they support funding to the celiac disease foundation.

I love them. It was awesome to see this on a box of "mainstream" cereal from a large company

I just brought "Chex Mix" to a party this past weekend and no one noticed the missing wheat and corn chex at all. They loved it, it tastes exactly the same! :D

I saw it...I hope other companies will notice and compete with Rice Chex for making gluten-free cereals that are affordable. I wish Pebbles would announce it too and help get the competition going!

I've also purchased a box of Rice Chex because of the info on this forum saying it is gluten free. I ate it, and didn't get sick. I've also thought of contacting the company to thank them for making this product available.....heck, maybe they will give me a coupon towards another purchase!!

Sorry to inform you otherwise, but no, you won't get a coupon. At least, I didn't.

best regards, lm

Right after I replied to this topic, I opened up the Sunday newspaper, and low and behold.....a coupon good for $1 off two boxes of Chex cereal!

I love Rice Chex so much, I was thrilled when I found out I could eat them again.

I'm now hoping Rice Krispies will go gluten-free as well, so I can make some Rice Krispies Treats again. I miss those things!

      Symptoms that get worse if you don't supplement is a sign of malabsorption, possibly due to Celiac disease. Blood tests for nutritional deficiencies are not very accurate, and should be done when you have been off of supplements for eight to twelve weeks, otherwise the vitamin supplements you've taken will be measured.  The blood circulation system is a transportation system.  It transports the vitamins you've absorbed around the body, but blood tests don't give an accurate picture of the vitamin and mineral stores inside organs and tissues where they are actually used.  You can have "normal" blood levels but still have deficiencies.  This is because the brain demands stored nutrients be put into the blood stream to supply important organs, like the brain and heart, while other organs do without.   If you are taking Thiamine Mononitrate in your supplements, you are probably low in thiamine.  Thiamine Mononitrate is used in many supplements because it won't break down sitting on a shelf.  This also means Thiamine Mononitrate is difficult for the body to utilize.  Only thirty percent of Thiamine Mononitrate on the label is absorbed and even less is able to be utilized by the body.  A different form of Thiamine called Benfotiamine has been shown to promote intestinal healing.   Talk to your doctor about doing a genetic test to look for Celiac markers.   I'm concerned that if you do a gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum off two weeks) in your weakened state, the nutritional deficiencies will become worse and possibly life threatening.

      Hello, good afternoon!   I apologize, I didn’t see a notification and I’m just reading this. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and the link. Yes you are absolutely right, even so trying to get a response from them has been extremely difficult. They don’t answer but I will your practice of “guilty until proven innocent.”   I like and have a sense of trust here in this website, everyone is honest and thoughts are raw. The mutual understanding is amazing!   thank you Scott!

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.
