Beware Of The New Formula Of Kix

I was so excited to try the Kix now that they have the new formula, and they tasted so good, but I got glutened from what I believe may be cross contamination. I also double checked the ingredients to make sure it wasn't the old formula. It's been 5 days since then and I'm just now starting to feel a little bit better, but nowhere near normal. I guess I'll have to wait until if and when they decide to go through the process to make it officially gluten free like they did with Chex before I ever try them again. :(

Envirokidz has a cereal that is very similar to Kix...Has a panda on front. We buy on Amazon.

I second the EnviroKidz recommendation. They are quite tasty - especially the peanut butter variety (kind of reminds me of Reese's PB cups cereal).

I totally agree with that recommendation! The peanut butter ones are so good!! It even makes a great snake to throw in a baggie and take on the road with you!

That is too funny, not that you got glutened, but that i have been wondering what I have been eating that is making me feel this way... I had kix this morning, and was assuming that it was a cross contamination matter, and since i am not the only one who had this happen, i feel a little relieved, my friends were thinking i was crazy because they dont have gluten in them...they dont understand the cross contamination issue!

will be trying the envirokids soon!

What type of Kix are you talking about? The new Honey Kix has no gluten ingredients....but I thought regular Kix was made with oat flour.

I like Trix(yes, the one with the bunny on it) and love Honey nut Chex. My sone really like the Cocoa and Peanut Butter Bumpers, and I get them at Krogers.

I bought a box of Honey Kix last week. It tasted like cardboard :o . I like Trix, and the Chex, especially the corn & honey nut kinds.

best regards, lm

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
