I can't find them anywhere! I'm in NC and looked in a harris teeter and a food lion. When i didn't see them on the shelf I went to customer service and asked if I could request a product and they basically told me no I would just have to keep coming back and checking. grr...i was so hoping to make cookies this week :(

I want to hear how they are too though in the off chance they do get them here in Fayettenam :P

I am in Fort Worth, TX and am not surprised that I haven't found them yet. Considering how long it took to have the gluten free versions of chex on the shelves, I am hoping by July 1 at this rate. In the meantime enjoying some Pamela's Extreme Chocolate Mini Cookies.

i don't think the betty crocker mixes are out but you should try the Bob's RedMill gluten free chocolate cake mix, it's really good.

I heard that they were supposed to come out June 1st. I went on the website to locate which stores would have them and none pop up.

Dallas area here, and I forgot to look today while I was at the store. Will try to check in the next couple of days and report back.

RE: Chex - it took quite a while for me to be able to find the Honey Nut Chex, and have just recently found the Chocolate Chex. Still no Strawberry or Cinnamon, though.

Is there a link on the Betty Crocker site to look for store locations that carry an item??

Thanks

I looked at Central Market in Mill Creek, WA and they didn't have them. Not sure that was the best place to look. They carry a lot of gluten-free stuff already and tend to have more organic stuff.

A person in my local group found them at Kroger with the gluten cake mixes. She said they were 4.95 a box.

Ditto the questions. So anxious to try the mixes ;)

I did find Kix again that is the new formula. Haven't seen it since January. Has the corn cob on the front and not made with oats (doesn't state gluten-free yet)

I see you've already learned what the rest of NC calls Fayetteville :lol:

Don't hold your breath for Harris Teeter to carry it. Not saying they won't, but don't hold your breath. I would try Kroger first, if you have one close by. They also have some Pamela's mixes, and some Bob's Red Mill mixes.

I am in CO and have not found any of the new gluten-free mixes. Still have not found the strawberry, chocolate or cinnamon chex. I have found the honey nut but only at SuperTarget. King Soopers (aka Kroger) has had the rice and corn chex but no other flavors.

I am so anxious for these new things to hit the shelves!

It's not available to Canadians yet...don't know how long we'll be waiting. For those in the US who haven't found them yet, try asking your store manager to bring them in.

Yes! We have them here in Missouri. I bought them today at Schnucks. They were $3.99 a box. There were four varieties; devils food cake, brownies, chocolate chip cookies, and vanilla cake. I bought the cookies and brownies. I made the cookies today and they were really good. They tasted like "regular" cookies, very sweet and no strange after taste. My picky son ate three at one sitting. He loved them. My toddler daughter said, "More!" after she ate one. I am going back to to store tomorrow and buying more!

Betty Crocker's items won't be on shelves for 2-3 more months. A friends wife work's there and gave me some samples yesterday. We live in SoCal and she has been handing out samples. They are trying to get the word out. I made the choc. chip cookies from a box and they were easy and wonderful!!! My husband had four and I had 1 1/2. And most importantly no sign of being glutened or cc. I hope they get them out soon.

All we have is Martin's and Food Kitty around here, neither of which has them yet. I really didn't expect Food Lion to - if I had to shop there I'd either go broke or hungry because they stock virtually NOTHING we eat and if they do you need to take out a loan to buy it. I DID expect Martin's to, since they have 4 aisles of what amounts to a "health food store", complete with 6 or 8 freezers, soy and coconut yogurt, gluten-free dog food, every kind of gluten-free pasta, fresh and frozen gluten-free bread, really rather amazing for a "chain" and at reasonable prices. I pay less than $2.50 a box for the Nut Thins crackers (which I would adore regardless of my gluten status). I did ask today at Martin's at the Customer Service desk and they're supposed to call me tomorrow. I'm going to try the only other store (Weis, which I believe is part of Giant Eagle) around tomorrow; but it's like 25 miles away. We did have a Kroger at one time but people just didn't warm up to it and it's now a Food Lion (ugh).

Dying to try the mixes, which is really funny, since I've never, ever, been a cake, cookie, pastry, pasta kind of gal.

That would relate to secondary adrenal insufficiency I think , ie AI caused by steroids such as taken long term for eg asthma. I have primary autoimmune AI, my adrenals are atrophied, no chance if recovery there. But I am in touch with some secondaries, so something to bear in mind. .  Niacin B3 Very interesting too. Must have a good read about that.  Im sure lots of questions will arise as I progress with dermatitis herpetiformis. In the mean time, thanks for your help.

The Dapsone has cleared the rash entirely but I still get quite a bit itching, absolutely nothing to see though. I know its notoriously hard to clear and its still relatively early days for me.  The iodine issue is very interesting. I do eat quite a bit of salt because I have Addison's disease and sodium retention is an issue. I also have autoimmune hypothyroidism, not sure how a low iodine diet would play into that? Because of my Addison's I am totally steroid dependent, I take steroids 4 x daily and cannot mount any defence against inflammation. I need to increase my meds for that. Now that I know what is wrong I can do just that if Im having a bad day. Life is very sweet, just so damn complicated sometimes! Hey ho, onwards. Thank you again for your advice.

      So, essentially all of the nutrition in the food we eat is absorbed through the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestinal track that is damaged by celiac disease. This villous lining is composed of billions of finger-like projections that create a huge amount of surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the celiac person, when gluten is consumed, it triggers an autoimmune reaction in this area which, of course, generates inflammation. The antibodies connected with this inflammation is what the celiac blood tests are designed to detect but this inflammation, over time, wears down the finger-like projections of the villous lining. Of course, when this proceeds for an extended period of time, greatly reduces the absorption efficiency of the villous lining and often results in many and various nutrient deficiency-related health issues. Classic examples would be osteoporosis and iron deficiency. But there are many more. Low D3 levels is a well-known celiac-caused nutritional deficiency. So is low B12. All the B vitamins in fact. Magnesium, zinc, etc.  Celiac disease can also cause liver inflammation. You mention elevated ALP levels. Elevated liver enzymes over a period of 13 years was what led to my celiac diagnosis. Within three months of going gluten free my liver enzymes normalized. I had elevated AST and ALT. The development of sensitivities to other food proteins is very common in the celiac population. Most common cross reactive foods are dairy and oats but eggs, soy and corn are also relatively common offenders. Lactose intolerance is also common in the celiac population because of damage to the SB lining.  Eggs when they are scrambled or fried give me a gut ache. But when I poach them, they do not. The steam and heat of poaching causes a hydrolysis process that alters the protein in the egg. They don't bother me in baked goods either so I assume the same process is at work. I bought a plastic poacher on Amazon to make poaching very easy. All this to say that many of the issues you describe could be caused by celiac disease.

      thank you so much for your detailed and extremely helpful reply!! I can say with absolute certainty that the less gluten containing products I've eaten over the past several years, the better I've felt.   I wasn't avoiding gluten, I was avoiding refined grains (and most processed foods) as well as anything that made me feel bad when I ate it. It's the same reason I gave up dairy and eggs- they make me feel ill.  I do have a bit of a sugar addiction lol so a lot of times I wasn't sure if it was the refined grains that I was eating - or the sugar. So from time to time I might have a cookie or something but I've learned how to make wonderful cookies and golden brownies with BEANS!! and no refined sugar - I use date paste instead. Pizza made me so ill- but I thought it was probably the cheese. I gave up pizza and haven't missed it. the one time I tried a slice I felt so bad I knew I'd never touch it again. I stopped eating wheat pasta at least 3 yrs ago- just didn't feel well after eating it. I tried chick pea pasta and a few others and discovered I like the brown rice pasta. I still don't eat a lot of pasta but it's nice for a change when I want something easy. TBH over the years I've wondered sometimes if I might be gluten intolerant but really believed it was not possible for me to have celiac disease. NOW I need to know for sure- because I'm in the middle of a long process of trying to find out why I have a high parathyroid level (NOT the thyroid- but rather the 4 glands that control the calcium balance in your body) I have had a hard time getting my vit D level up, my serum calcium has run on the low side of normal for many years... and now I am losing calcium from my bones and excreting it in my urine (some sort of renal calcium leak) Also have a high ALP since 2014. And now rapidly worsening bone density.  I still do not have a firm diagnosis. Could be secondary HPT (but secondary to what? we need to know) It could be early primary HPT. I am spilling calcium in my urine but is that caused by the high parathyroid hormone or is it the reason my PTH is high>? there are multiple feedback loops for this condition.    so I will keep eating the bread and some wheat germ that does not seem to bother me too much (it hasn't got enough gluten to use just wheat germ)    but I'm curious- if you don't have a strong reaction to a product- like me and wheat germ- does that mean it's ok to eat or is it still causing harm even if you don't have any obvious symptoms? I guess what you are saying about silent celiac makes it likely that you can have no symptoms and still have the harm... but geez! you'd think they'd come up with a way to test for this that didn't require you to consume something that makes you sick! I worry about the complications I've been reading about- different kinds of cancers etc. also wondering- are there degrees of celiac disease?  is there any correlation between symptoms and the amnt of damage to your intestines? I also need a firm diagnosis because I have an identical twin sister ... so if I have celiac, she has it too- or at least the genetic make up for having it. I did have a VERY major stress to my body in 2014-2016 time frame .. lost 50lbs in a short period of time and had severe symptoms from acute protracted withdrawal off an SSRI drug (that I'd been given an unethically high dose of, by a dr who has since lost his license)  Going off the drug was a good thing and in many ways my health improved dramatically- just losing 50lbs was helpful but I also went  off almost a dozen different medications, totally changed my diet and have been doing pretty well except for the past 3-4 yrs when the symptoms related to the parathyroid issue cropped up. It is likely that I had low vit D for some time and that caused me a lot of symptoms. The endo now tells me that low vit D can be caused by celiac disease so I need to know for sure! thank you for all that great and useful information!!!
