Just curious what you all dairy free fellow gluten-free'ers pour on your morning cereal that is gluten-free?

Which is the best tasting?

Almond milk is very yummy :D

I ate my cereal dry with a side glass of OJ for the first year when I learned I was allergic to milk. Then I was used to soy milk enough to add it to my cereal. I really prefer the soy on a hot cereal like grits though.

Depends on the cereal, really. The best all around bet to me is unsweetened almond milk.

I use almond milk too. And I love it on warm brown rice, with a chopped up banana, some nuts, some sesame seeds, some cinnamon, and some pure maple syrup!!! and sometimes raisins! I eat this instead of cereal. I'm going to try quinoa and see if that's any good this way.

I sometimes drink Ensure when I can't find meal options. The new dark chocolate is to die for.

I really like Almond Breeze vanilla for cereal.

I like Wegmans Rice Milk and for drinking chocolate Hemp milk.

Loved the unsweetened almond milk but it had enough soy lethicin (sp?) to upset my digestion. I really like making my own almond milk when I can find unsalted almonds. Westsoy rice milk is cheap and easy to find. I just don't like that rice milk on cereal is just carbs on carbs, bad for my sugar. But when everyone else around here is eating ice cream, I have cereal.

I don't drink any kind of milk. It's to expensive and I don't need to extra calories. I drink a couple onces of juice in a huge glass of water. And I take vitamin D and calcium in the morning with my coffee.

Hope this helps,

I use rice milk (trader joe's unsweetened). On cereal and in baking. I don't drink straight from a glass but I could. It's ok if I need to take medicine or something. My parents like almond milk (and not the rice) but I haven't tried.

For what it's worth, Pacific brand almond milk is the only brand I've seen that does NOT contain soy lecithin. (Although they did go back and forth with this, I'm pretty sure it's now soy-free again.)

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies.  Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      Thank you so much for your response  Yes it seems as though things get very painful as time goes on.  I'm not eating gluten as far as I know.  However, I'm not sure of cross contamination.  My system seems to weaken to hidden spices and other possibilities. ???  if cross contamination is possible...I am in a super sensitive mode of celiac disease.. Neuropathy from head to toes

This could be malpratice siit but im not good at finding lawyers

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
