Hi

Are Fruity Pebbles gluten-free?

Thank You

I'm pretty sure the answer is no, I know they have oats and corn, but I also think they have malt, which makes them a no no.

It seems as tho they are gluten-free I know they are made from rice. I eat them and tolerate them well. I have read the label and cannot think of anything in them that we can't have, I could be wrong (I haven't had them in a couple of weeks and do not have a box on hand). I will look the next time I go to the grocery sotre.

I did check the last time I was at the store(since I was concerned that someone posted they were eating Fruity Pebbles daily, possibly it was Hillary), and I couldn't find anything on the label that would indicate they were not gluten-free. But someone should contact the manufacturer, it might be an issue of cross-contamination that makes them possibly not gluten-free. I don't buy/eat them so I am not sure. I think they are made by POST, so maybe checking to see if they have any gluten-free cereals? I have not found them on any of my current updated gluten-free food lists.

God bless,

Mariann

Hi!

Post Cereals are a part of Kraft. If you go to Kraftfoods.com and search for gluten-free they explain their policy. They will not hide any gluten. Cocoa and Fruity Pebbles are gluten-free. I love companies like Kraft and ConAgra!

That is great news Kathy, sometimes that is all I can eat!!! I think I emailed Post at one time but they never responded to me! :D

Hi Hillary,

I also found that Kraft.foods always list gluten containing ingredients on their labels. Both Cocoa and Fruity Pebbles are on manyGF lists and even on the handout I was given at Children's Hospital of Phila. I combine them with Nature's Path Organic Crsipy Rice for rice krispie treats. My daughter says they are too sweet with just the Pebbles.

Hi Everyone!!!!! I just found a cereal make by "Shoprite". It is called Scrunchy Puffed Corn Sweetened popped- up Corn Cereal. It is supposed to be simular to Kellogg's Corn Pops (which is now adding gluten, so be careful to read each box)

I Called Shoprite and was told that Scrunchy Puffed Corn cereal IS gluten-free!!! I'm very excited. Hope my son likes them.

      Your doctor is incorrect! Your positive DQB1*02 is all you need to develop Celiac disease.  Just having one copy is sufficient to develop Celiac.   Reference: Classical celiac disease is more frequent with a double dose of HLA-DQB1*02: A systematic review with meta-analysis https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC6375622/ Also, the Malabsorption of Celiac can cause low B vitamins (and minerals) that are related to poor oral health.

      I can see why she’s worried, especially with a history of ovarian cysts, but it’s also very common for healing after a celiac diagnosis to take time. Even when someone is doing their best gluten-free, it can take months for inflammation to calm down, and bloating, abdominal pressure, and even back discomfort can flare during the adjustment period. The upcoming dietitian visit is a great step, since hidden gluten exposure or nutritional gaps can sometimes contribute to ongoing symptoms. That said, if the pain is persistent, worsening, or feels similar to her prior cyst symptoms, it’s reasonable to mention that to her doctor for peace of mind. It’s not uncommon for multiple things to overlap, so checking both GI and gynecologic angles can help rule things out and reduce anxiety while her body continues healing. Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      PS... I help care for someone in their 90s, albeit part time, but have just been in hospital for a while with him and it has reminded me, even for someone in better physical shape, which I am now, thankfully, it can be very tough on one's health/sleep/mood.  I think what I am trying to say is you are going through a lot all at once, it is not surprising that you are not feeling 100 per cent. Even if we love our relative to bits, and they love us, they often can't understand that we too have lives, and need to keep our houses, families and jobs in running order. Something has to give, but it's often the carer!  When an elderly loved one is resistant to change, it makes things even more exhausting.  Often it has taken a crisis for me to be able to introduce the help that has actually been needed for so long.  It sounds as if you are doing an amazing job but can you get any support from any carers associations or other groups where you live, which might help?

      hmm you got me curious as I have suspected that certain foods with sugar may be an issue for me so I googled this and came up with this: " Key Compounds Causing Reactions in Gluten-Free Foods: Fructans: Often found in foods that are gluten-free but high in fiber (e.g., inulin, chicory root), acting as a trigger for digestive issues similar to gluten. Fructose (Fructose Malabsorption): A sugar found in fruits, honey, and high-fructose corn syrup. Some individuals cannot properly absorb this sugar, leading to fermentation in the gut. Sugar Alcohols (Polyols): Examples include mannitol, sorbitol, and xylitol, commonly added to gluten-free, sugar-free products to maintain sweetness. Lactose: A disaccharide found in dairy that frequently causes issues in individuals with damaged gut linings, a common occurrence in celiac disease.  These reactions are often classified as dietary intolerances (such as fructan intolerance or fructose malabsorption) rather than allergies. They are commonly found in packaged "gluten-free" products like bars, cereals, and processed snacks. " hope this helps.
