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.

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.

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!

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Theresa2407 · Posted

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Possible celiac - need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Celiac or not??

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
