Chex

Hi Everyone!

Does anyone else love Chex? I live in Vancouver and got four boxes of Chex from Seattle this weekend! It tastes great, it was very inexpensive, and it says Gluten free on the box! So far I don't have a tummy ache at all! Actually, I think this may be one of the only foods that does not give me a tummy ache.

If anyone doesn't know about Chex I would recommend trying it, it's such a treat! :D

It's very exciting because normally I only post to complain but today I'm in a great mood!

nicole356 - I love them too! I get the honey nut, and so far, no issues. It's my favorite thing every morning, and it holds me for several hours, which I can't say about ANY other cereal. Very tasty! Glad you found something that makes you feel good! I know the feeling.

My wife went to the US to visit a friend a few months ago and brought back a supply of Corn Chex and Rice Chex, which we have been eating about once a week. We don't eat a lot of cereal, and for the last few months Chex has been the only one we are eating.

I'm with you.........I eat Rice Chex almost every morning and I have for over six months now, I just do not tire of it. It is almost the only way to get milk in me, too unless I use it for cooking as I do not drink milk. I don't like the Corn Chex and have not tried any of the flaovred ones.

Has anyone reacted to the BHT in Chex?

I've eaten all the gluten-free varieties many times with no problems. Mostly though, I have the corn chex every morning, 7 days a week. I like them with fresh blueberries. That way I don't have to add any additional sugar, agave nectar, etc., and I figure it's more healthy.

Another plus. My non-celiac wife loves honey nut chex. I use to buy the big bag of honey nut chex look-a-like product (I forget the name). Now I just get the real thing, it cost a little more, but dirt cheap compared to most gluten-free cerials. It's nice to be able to eliminate one more gluten product.

Thank you General Mills and Betty Crocker for offering us premium quality mainstream goodies available at regular stores at affordable prices. Gluten-free times are a-gettin better.

best regards, lm

Another great thing about Chex Rice and Corn.....you can grind them up and they make great coating for baked/fried chicken and in meatloaf, meatballs, etc. Also, I ground them up one time and added sweetner and they made a nice "crust" for cheesecake !

I guess i'm the odd one out. They mess with my tummy. But I guess I am super sensitive because I react to all the gluten free processed foods. Dadgum it. :angry::( But hey, looking on the bright side, i've lost 30 lbs. Yipee! :rolleyes:

      To Trent’s, yes, from what i’ve read it is not uncommon for digestive systems to become less tolerant to gluten over time. Many types of sensitivity or allergies arise in older people who never had a problem. I don’t see why you are focusing on anything but the fact that after years of my sensitivity to gluten, for whatever reason , it has disappeared after a bout of antibiotics. What i’ve read is antibiotics can make gluten sensitivity worse. In any event, in my case, if I can still eat all the wheat products I want with no reaction after a month or more since my hospital stay this is something that should be investigated. Time will tell.

      I had a UTI, blood cultures are standard to insure that the infection does not get in the bloodstream which can lead to sepsis and death. In my case there was bacteria in my blood which necessitated 48 hours of antibiotic IV

      Hi Cameo674. just read your post. Well wishes to a correct diagnosis so that you can get on track to healing and feeling better. Personally I know it’s good to have the eosinophilic disorder ruled out too, as this can show anti-ttg igA antibodies too. But usually without the anti-gliadin antibodies unless gliadin is an allergen for you. Thanks for posting the link to look up SNPs rs… numbers on another post. Was useful. Looking at your result, ”Celiac Associated HLD-DQ Typing: DQA1* Value: 05; DQA1*DQA11 Value: 05; DQB1* Value: 02; DQB1-DQB11 Value: 02; Celiac Gene Pairs Present Value: Yes; Celiac HLA Interpretation Value: These genes are permissive for celiac disease.  However, these genes can also be present in the normal population. Testing performed by SSOP.  So google failed me.  I think these results basically say I have genes, but everybody has these genes so this test was just to confirm that there is a vague possibility?  Maybe this test result explains why I do not have the horrible symptoms most individuals with celiac have?  I told the GI my assumption is that I am just gluten intolerant since I do not have the pain? So maybe this test explains why I have antibodies?” To me it reads.that you carry the high risk HLADQ2.5 haplotype.

      Hello. Do you mind saying what symptoms led the doctors to test for bacteria in your blood?
    • trents
      So you you ate wheat products every single day for 50 years without a problem but then in the 90's you discovered that wheat was your problem. That's confusing to me. It seems contradictory. Did you have a problem or not?
