Our local grocery sells Rice Chex for $3.99 for a stupid 10-oz box, and the Target in the same shopping center sells a larger box for $1.68!

Yay Target!

celiacs love rice chex!

but stock up now while the price is low. my local Walmart did the same thing a few months back...at first they were $1.66 a box. then the price went up to $2.00 and now it's $2.98. still cheaper than the grocery stores but the price doubled in a matter of a few months.

i found it on sale at genuardi's (safeway) earlier this week, but the sale is over. so keep you eye out there, too!

Also keep your eye out for coupons. I snagged a bunch of boxes that had coupons for $3 off when you buy any 3 GM cereals.

I got excited about the Target deal when someone else reported it, but when I went looking, the cost was well over $3 - pretty comparable to everywhere else. I did get in on the $1.66 Walmart deal, though. I'll keep watching Target.

Seems to be on sale often, but Target gets half our business for being consistently lower on many items.

I didn't think rice chex were gluten free.

The formula was changed a few months ago, and the new formula is gluten-free.You have to look at the box, since the old stuff may still be available in stores, but the new production is gluten-free.

Rice Chex is not only now gluten free, but they make a big old deal about it on the box, and one of the side panels tells all about celiac disease and gluten sensitivity!!

I found it at that price at my Target a few weeks ago. I bought 10 boxes most of which I'm planning to send to my friend who is at a convent in NY. She said there are a seminarian and friar who both have celiac and when a cereal is donated that they can eat everyone gets so excited, LOL. When she visited last I sent back some gluten-free foods with her for them. The price at Target means I can send them several boxes of gluten-free cereal that I know will be greatly appreciated!

I just realized that I forgot to put the cost in my post abouve about Safeway (genuardi's)...it was $1.50 per box...the cheapest I have seen anywhere, and I almost didn't believe it so double and triple checked the sign and also when paying for it. I don't know if it will go that low again, but I check every time I go in!

      Thank you very much for your response. Since I got this advice I called Pepsid manufacturer and they could not give a definite answer. Basically,  there is no final testing and they do not guarantee anything. So I went and got farmotidine from Wagmans that was marked gluten-free and also our pediatrician gave us a prescription for farmotidine that was also gluten-free. So there are other options there thankfully. In case someone will come across of this dilemma.

      A nutritionist typically focuses on general wellness, lifestyle guidance, and preventative health. A dietician allowed to provide medical nutrition therapy. When i was diagnosed there was zero support and few dieticians and Dr understood celiac disease.  I typically guide a newly diagnosed celiac to a whole food diet to easily transition to the gluten free lifestyle

      Your gluten-free journey sounds like a lot of trial and error—especially working in a deli where gluten exposure is constant! The eye-watering issue could be an airborne gluten sensitivity (like flour dust irritating your eyes) or even a mild wheat allergy, since you’re around it daily. A daily antihistamine (like Claritin or Zyrtec) might help if it’s allergy-related, but avoiding airborne gluten as much as possible (masking, washing hands/face often) is key. It’s great you’re tracking triggers—high-fiber foods and certain gluten-free substitutes (like those tortillas or PB pretzels) can sometimes cause similar symptoms due to additives or digestive adjustments. For travel, pack safe snacks (protein...

      It’s scary how hidden gluten can be—even in non-food products like hair care! Your experience is a great reminder that topical products with gluten can cause systemic reactions in some people with celiac disease, especially if they’re accidentally ingested (like when shampoo runs down your face). While not everyone reacts to external exposure, your symptoms—joint pain, brain fog, and GI issues—clearly show your sensitivity. It’s frustrating that companies aren’t required to label “gluten-free” on cosmetics, so ingredient checks are a must. Don’t feel stupid; many of us learn this the hard way! Thanks for sharing your story—it’s a wake-up call for others to...

      It’s possible—though not extremely common—to develop a wheat allergy in addition to celiac disease. While celiac is an autoimmune reaction to gluten, a wheat allergy is an IgE-mediated response to wheat proteins, which can cause allergic symptoms like hives, swelling, or even anaphylaxis. Your recent anaphylactic reaction strongly suggests a true wheat allergy has developed alongside your celiac disease. Research on this overlap is limited, but some people with celiac do develop other immune-related conditions, including allergies. Repeated gluten exposures may have sensitized your immune system over time, leading to this new allergic response. Since wheat allergy involves...
