I have a question. I keep seeing Malt o Meal as a cereal people here are eating...as well as Fruity Pebbles and Cocoa Pebbles. I'm probably brainwashed from an experience years ago, but I always thought those were gluten full. Did something change? Or did I read the boxes incorrectly 4 years ago? Malt= gluten, right? I don't want to take a trip to the store today just to find this out...I've got too much laundry to do today.

The two Pebbles cereals are definitely gluten-free, although some people avoid them because they're made in a facility with a whole pile of cereals with gluten. As far as I know they've always been gluten-free.

Malt O Meal has or used to have some cereals that are or used to be gluten-free. The "malt" in the name doesn't mean all of them have it.

Thanks Richard,

I used to buy my son Corn Pops, but they changed the ingredients to include wheat. My kid would flip if he could have Fruity Pebbles. I just may have to make a run to the store today.

We have both Fuirty Pebbles and Coco Pebbles in my house :)

But the Malt-o-meal cearls are apperantly adding gluten to thier cearls either now, or soon. Theres a therad on this message board about it, but I dont have the link handy.

I eat the Fruity and Cocoa pebbles by Post alot and yes they are definitely gluten free.

I used to eat some cereals by Malt-O-Meal but they were changing their ingredients so I quit eating them so I wouldn't get addicted to it and then have to stop eating them

Well, I'm shocked! Laundry be damned....every child should experience the sugary goodness of Fruity Pebbles. And I'm going to get a bag of marshmallows and make rice crispy treats, too! I hope the 'sugar police' aren't patroling these boards!

I eat Malt-O-Meal corn bursts with no problems, but I hear they will be changing the ingredients soon. Malt-O-Meal is the brand name, as well as the name of one of their cereals.

      I'd like to clarify: Is the pain you describe in the area just below your chest constant, or does it only appear when you start moving?

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      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/
