Okay, this is weird. I dreamt last night I was sent samples of these to test out. I'm not much of a packaged mix user but looks like I'm kidding myself. :P My subconscious knows what I really want!

Nothing like celiac dreams!

I am beaming at the news. Betty Crocker is a General Mills product. Maybe the response to Rice Chex going gluten free influenced this????

And what will the flavors be...and will they make gluten-free frosting...and what other products will they be coming out with...and what other companies will copy...and will they put all their gluten-free items together in the store...??? Life is getting easier for celiacs ;) Think of how happy kids will be and moms too of course! And birthday cakes!!!

I am a member of the General Mills advisory board, perhaps the panel has a bunch of us. :D Ah for the day when I can answer a survey they send without page after page of 'nope don't touch those'

This is amazing! I'm getting ready to move and am terrified about leaving my food co-op and local stores that carry a good amount of gluten free products. But seeing more and more major brands create gluten free lines is making me a little less nervous. I would love to hear any review of the products/when they are going to be available/price.

I am beyond jealous of the response you where given. I emailed on Friday morning and this was what the response was.

"Thank you for contacting General Mills regarding gluten in General Mills products.

It is our goal to help our consumers determine whether or not they can include our products in their diet. To accurately accomplish this, we believe it is best to refer to the specific ingredients listed on each product package; and for this reason, we do not offer a gluten-free product list.

However, we do understand that ingredients can be confusing. We want you to be assured that if the ingredient label does not list wheat, barley, rye, oats or gluten containing ingredients sourced from these grains, then the product would be gluten-free. Sources of gluten are listed on the label even if the source of gluten is part of another ingredient (such as flavoring or spice). Because ingredients may vary from one package to another due to product reformulation, you should use the product′s ingredient label to provide you with current and accurate information.

Additional information regarding gluten may be obtained by contacting your health care professional or:Celiac Sprue Association/United States of America, Inc.PO Box 31700Omaha, NE 68131-0700402-558-0600

Or toll free: 877-CSA-4-CSA (877-272-4272)

We hope this information is helpful.

I always find it intersting how different the responses from the same company can be. I specifically asked about the gluten free baking mixes.

I'm on it too and spent alot of time begging them for products before the gluten-free Chex came out

I do think they are listening.

Great news! Now the next question: is the product made on gluten-free dedicated lines? This would be necessary for the super-sensitive celiacs.

This is truly wonderful news. Now that we have a major food manufacturer in our corner, life is going to be a little better.

The product reviews are up now for the cookies and the brownies.

Thanks for the tip.

kill.the.gluten has the best homemade brownie recipe (link below) that I have tried. So for them to rave about the B.C. brownie mix is great news! I am anxious to read their comments about the cake mix ;)

      Thank you for the kind words!

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      The rate of damage to the villous lining of the SB and the corresponding loss of nutrient absorbing efficiency varies tremendously from celiac to celiac. Yes, probably is dose dependent if, by dose dependent you mean the amount of exposure to gluten. But damage rates and level of sensitivity also seem to depend on the genetic profile. Those with both genes...

      Have Tru Joy Sweets Choco Chews been discontinued??

      Help! My 5 year old daughter just stopped eating dairy and gluten due to her EoE and Celiac. Her favorite candy in the world is tootsie rolls. I did some research, and it sounds like these are the only options for finding something similar, but I can't find them anywhere to actually purchase. Have they been discontinued?? Does anyone have another recommendation...

      Thank you for the kind words! I keep thinking that things in the medical community are improving, but a shocking number of people still post here who have already discovered gluten is their issue, and their doctors ordered a blood test and/or endoscopy for celiac disease, yet never mentioned that the protocol for such screening requires them to be eating gluten daily for weeks beforehand. Many have already gone gluten-free during their pre-screening period, thus their test results end up false negative, leaving them confused and sometimes untreated. It is sad that so few doctors attended your workshops, but it doesn't surprise me. It seems like the protocols for any type of screening should just pop up on their computer screens whenever any type of medical test is ordered, not just for celiac disease--such basic technological solutions could actually educate those in the medical community over time.

      The rate of damage to the villous lining of the SB and the corresponding loss of nutrient absorbing efficiency varies tremendously from celiac to celiac. Yes, probably is dose dependent if, by dose dependent you mean the amount of exposure to gluten. But damage rates and level of sensitivity also seem to depend on the genetic profile. Those with both genes HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8 seem to be more sensitive to minor amounts of gluten exposure than those with just one of those genes and those with only DQ2 seem to be more sensitive than those with only DQ8. But there are probably many factors that influence the damage rate to the villi as well as intensity of reaction to exposure. There is still a lot we don't know. One of the gray areas is in regard to those who are "silent" celiacs, i.e. those who seem to be asymptomatic or whose symptoms are so minor that they don't garner attention. When they get a small exposure (such as happens in cross contamination) and have no symptoms does that equate to no inflammation? We don't necessarily know. The "sensitive" celiac knows without a doubt, however, when they get exposure from cross contamination and the helps them know better what food products to avoid.
