At a regular grocery store Cocoa and Fruity Pebbles by Post are gluten free.

At health food stores that have a brand called Envirokidz and they have good cereals. The ones that are gluten free clearly say it on the front of the box.

Entirely depends on your supermarket. :-) The ones I've gotten at various places:

Environkids Gorilla Munch (a bit on the sweet side for me, though)

Health Valley Rice Crunch 'Ems and Corn Crunch 'Ems

Pacific Valley's Nutty Rice (NOT the corn variety)

Erewon's Crispy Rice

Nature's Path Mesa Sunrice and Cornflakes

And, of course, hot cereals like Bob's Red Mills Mighty Tasty Hot Cereal, or their rice, soy, buckwheat, or millet grits, or Ancient Harvest's Qunioa Flakes.

currently Malt O'Meal has several cereals that are Gluten free according to the letter I received from them. Their version of Fruity Pebbles, Cocoa Pebbles, Puffed Rice, and Corn Pops... but read the labels because they might be changing some of the ingredients formulations. The rep I spoke with on the phone said that if enough people complain about the possible ingredients change that would make these no longer gluten-free, then the higher ups just might reconsider. Also by contacting the company directly they sent me quite a few coupons to use to buy Malt O'Meal cereals. I got a bunch of them on sale at WalMart's SuperCenter and am well stocked in cereal for a while.

I also really like Nature's Path's Mesa Sunrise cereal, it's really yummy, esp. with honey and milk!

I'm a big fan of Kashi Cranberry Sunrise(or is it Sunshine), wow, I can't think! It's one of those, but it's pretty good. Wegmans has a cereal in their health food section, its corn flakes with strawberries and it tastes a lot like special K with berries, which I miss very much! If there was one thing I wish I could eat again it would be cereal. Normal cereal! Good luck

I just bought Barbara's Bakery Puffins Peanut Butter from my local Jewel grocery store. I didn't have a reaction, but it's only wheat free, not gluten free, apparently because it contains oat flour in the ingredients. It was definitely yummy if your tummy can handle it! If not, Barbara's also makes other cereals that are gluten-free.

Well oats in the U.S are contaminated with wheat so they aren't safe.

It has been shown some celiacs can handle oats and some can't. There is a protein called avenin that some react to...just ones in the U.S are contaminated so they aren't safe anyway.

thank you . I did check out all the cereals that say gluten free like barbara's and environkids, my problem is one of my allergies is iodine, crazy i know but because of it cant have shellfish, iodine salt or sea salt as well as some of the dye tests hospitals do that contain iodine in their dye. that is how we found i had an allergy to it . so right now the only cereal I have been eating is the cream of rice and i tryed the alf puffed rice , also the arrow heads puffed rice but because still so new dont know how safe these store brand puff rices are . I call when I can but they dont have a number and after reading about cross catamination on arrowheads items I prefer to leave them alone. so any help would be appreciated, a number maybe some one has for them or a way i can contact them . rosie

oh forgot to mention the barbs and kids both have the seasalt , as do many of the organic or gluten free products, seems they add it alot to these items ;)

Barbara's Puffins Honey Rice Cereal is so good. They stay crunchy until the last bite and have just a slight hint of almond to them. Not all the Puffins are gluten-free, but this particular one is. I eat them often and hope that I won't tire of them...haven't so far. I think Bob's hot cereal is awful and miss oatmeal sooooooo much. I haven't tried grits yet, have some on the shelf to try.

Does anybody know why Cocoa pebbles and Fruity pebbles are not on either the CSA product listing or the Delphi listing? There seems to be a number of folks with celiac disease who are using these products.

My health food store sold me organic rolled oats that are produced in a facility that does nothing but those oats and I eat them occasionally, not every day. I was missing oatmeal so much. I don't have a problem after eating them and they taste so good. I wanted to get as many whole grains in as possible and this is one way to do that. My Honey Rice Puffins are also whole grain and I still love them, too. Not all Puffins are gluten-free, though, so you have to watch the labeling.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
