Your Favorite Gluten Free Discovery

I discovered yesterday that Post's Cocoa Pebbles are gluten free!! I never expected to be so happy to see my daughter eat 'junk' cereal but she was so happy that it was 'normal' food and had Fred Flintstone on the box.

What is your favorite?

While I was waiting for the page to load I was thinking about Cocoa Pebbles.

I found gluten free graham crackers and gluten free ice cream cones yesterday at a health food store near me. I was so excited to find these for my daughter. Now she can have graham crackers at preschool with the rest of the class. Not to mention they seem like they will make a good pie crust for something. And the ice cream cones...what 3 year old doesn't want a ice cream cone like everyone else! I haven't tried them yet, but I am thinking positively!!!

Envirokids Koala Bars. The kids love them and they're so nice for on-the-go snacking.

Pamela's baking mix and gluten-free pretzles (and I think they taste better than regular ones)

Amy's frozen mac and cheese. It's great to have for a quick lunch. My parents keep boxes at their house in case of a babysitting emergency. I keep a box at school in the freezer for an emergency lunch for my son. My kids love it and would eat it all day if I'd let them!

What kind of gluten free graham crackers did you find? I've been looking for some.

They are called S'morables by Kinnikinnick. I was quite impressed with the taste and my 3 year old loves them!!

My 2 favourite gluten-free foods of all time: the ready-made Pyrogies (which are worth paying almost $6 for a dozen), and recently Glutano soup crackers are back. LOVE the soup cracker. I am a huge fan of Glutino mushroom soup, so the Glutano crackers go along perfectly!

Other gluten-free cereals...

Rice Chex is now. This just occurred in the past 2-3 months.

Little Einsteins is but we cannot find it anymore anywhere.

Fruity Pebbles too

Glutino's english muffins. They make great toast. Much better than gluten-free bread IMO. Not cheap of course at about a dollar a shot.

Rice Chex for sure.

Mine isn't one discovery but I was VERY pleased by the grocery store Wegmans and their gluten free aisle! I bought SO MUCH food for Violet! Tons of stuff that didn't have rice in it too! Violet is allergic to rice and it seems like so much is made with primarily rice flour but Wegmans had a ton NOT with rice flour! If you have one near you I highly rcommend this grocery store! I even found one pizza dough kit not made with rice!

Glutino English muffins? Really?? Where do you fnd them? I love everything Glutino but have never seen the muffins. We get Kinickkinik(sp?) and they are a bit greasy to me.

Thanks!

I was thrilled about the Rice Chex of course. I've found all sorts of uses for them. Even use them for crumbs to make meat loaf. Another favorite of mine is Glutino's feta cheese and spinach pizza.

Omg yes...I usually would not eat either ingredient, but one day tried that pizza, and fell in love with it!

Surprisingly, the big health food stores here in DFW, Central Market & Whole foods, don't carry Glutino. But we have a Sprouts Market, a small version of Whole Foods, and that's where I first discovered Glutino products. They also carry Glutino crackers, pretty damn good IMO.

BTW, the Glutino english muffins are also a bit on the greasy side, but tasty.

The only 2 bread products I like from Glutino is the baguettes and the hamburger buns. Mmmm hamburger buns. Too bad I can't eat hamburgers very often lol. But next time I plan to make a trip to Wendy's I think I'll take a bun along!

gluten-free Crackers! Glutino is AWESOME and one of my favorite brands!

I also discovered that mixing peanut butter and jelly in a bowl and eating it is just as good as a PBand J sandwich. And rolling up most other sandwich ingredients together are just as good too.

But I can't find any decent gluten-free hot dog buns....

Glutino pretzels

Pumpkin Bread and Banana Bread made with Pamela's Pancake mix

Tinkyada Pasta

Dora the Explorer cereal

Amy's Gluten Free Frozen Kids Meal -- baked ziti. YUM!!!!!!!!!

      Hi @trents, yes I've had my levels checked in Dec 2025 which revealed vit D deficiency. I considered eggs although they only contain about 45 IU vitamin D/egg. I need 2000 IU vitamin D for maintenance as per my doctor. Although now, I likely need way more than that to treat the deficiency. My doctor has yet to advise me on dosing for deficiency. I've also considered cod liver oil, although again, if it's processed in a facility that has gluten, especially on flour form, I worried to test it, even if they have protocols in place to mitigate cross-contamination with gluten.

      Welcome to celiac.com, @Jane02! Have you had your serum D levels checked for deficiency/sufficiency? What about cod liver oil? Egg yolks can also be a good source of vitamin D.

      Hello, I'm very discouraged. I've been trying to find a safe vitamin mineral supplement brand for months and am tired of testing one after the other and experiencing my typical 'glutening' reactions. I'm really feeling the nutritional deficiencies set in. I'm doing the best I can to get these nutrients from my food, although it's impossible for me to intake enough vitamin D as I can't have dairy and have insufficient sun exposure in the northern hemisphere. I've tried B Complex from Country Life (certified gluten-free) - horrible reaction. I've tried Metagenics vitamin D tab (certified glute-free) - bad reaction. I've tried liquid vitamin D Thorne and D Drops - reactions were mild since I tried a drop of a drop. I understand there could be other things I'm reacting to in my diet, although my diet/intake is pretty consistent with minimal variables so I do think it's something in these supplements. I understand I could be reacting to the active ingredient vitamin/mineral itself or even the filler ingredients. I tried the vitamin D drops since the only filler ingredient is coconut oil, in some brands, which I know I can tolerate really well on its own - I cook with coconut oil frequently and have no 'glutening' reactions at all. Perhaps I'm reacting to the vitamin D itself, although I eat fatty fish every few days, an entire fillet with no 'glutening' reactions, which contains anywhere between 400-600 IU per fillet so I shouldn't be sensitive to vitamin D. All this to say, I'm desperately looking for at least a safe vitamin D supplement. Does anyone know of a safe vitamin D supplement brand? I'd love to know if there are any supplement brands that have absolutely no gluten (especially in flour form) in their facilities. I've heard of Kirkman having no grains in their facility - I may try this brand. Has anyone reacted to this brand?

      Welcome to the celiac.com communiuty, @Matthias! Yes, we have been aware that this can be an issue with mushrooms but as long as they are rinsed thoroughly it should not be a problem since the mushrooms don't actually incorporate the gluten into their cellular structure. For the same reason, one needs to be careful when buying aged cheeses and products containing yeast because of the fact that they are sometimes cultured on gluten-containing substrate.
    • Matthias
      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.
