Can You Recommend A Gluten Free Cold Cereal

I have tried eating the gluten free Rice Chex with no luck :(. I used almond milk with it. I even tried eating the cereal dry to see if it was the almond milk - same reaction - upset stomach - diarrhea. Are there any cold cereal gluten free alternatives that are easier to digest?

Thanks!

Yes i would like to now i tried gluten free corn chex with goat milk and dry hurt for two weeks. I wish i could find something else to eat for breakfest other than chicken,Tried buckwheat and that didn't work either.

EnviroKids makes a line of cereals. They have something similar to rice krispies, something sort of like kix I think...worth checking out. They have fun animals on the box and are marketed for children but they're still yummy, just expensive.

I think Kix is also newly gluten free, but I don't know how safe they are from CC. Just a rumor I heard.

I cant tolerate boxed cold cereals so ,,

I make a porridge of rice , I eat it warm or cold

take 1/2 cup white rice (brown rice can be used just increase cooking time to 75 mins)

4 cups of water

cook for about 45 mins

stir in sweetener while still warm

can be served hot or cold , with whatever sweetener and/ or milk you prefer

I love the corn Chex, Nature's Path Mesa Sunrise, and Nature's Path Organic Whole O's. I don;t have issues with any of them.

We have multiple avoidances besides gluten and we eat lots of cold cereals. Enjoy Life Crunchy Rice or Crunchy Flax are good. There are a couple Bakery on Main granolas I like, but I like them better dry. I think Arrowhead Mills Maple Buckwheat Flakes are my favorite. I can't remember the brand (might be Barbara's?), but we buy Puffins sometimes and I get Natures Path Mesa Sunrise in big bags. We buy one of the Erewon puffed rice cereals, but I can't remember which kind without the box and we are out of that one right now. We used to buy EnviroKids Koala Crisp, which is like a chocolate rice krispie, but they are too sweet for me and my daughter started getting a stomach ache from them so we quit buying them. Her favorite is Cinnamon Chex right now and doesn't have any problems with them.

If one doesn't work, you just have to move on to another kind and try that. What is tolerated by any one of us might not be tolerated by your system. Good luck in your search!

I really like Glutino's Sensible Beginnings.

They are made in a dedicated gluten-free facility--which might make a difference for you.

i think the brand is called bakery on main, they come in small packages and are a bit pricey (but what isn't?). it is like a granola cereal. it's sooooo yummie! comes in a few different kinds. nuts, cranberry's, dried fruit. i like to warm it up. sooooooo gooooood!!!! alos, udi's makes a DELISH gluten-free granola!!!!

some people don't do well with them, but i enjoy fruity and cocoa pebbles every once in a while.

I just picked up a box of Erewhon Organic Rice Twice Cereal from Sprouts yesterday. It was on sale - 2/$7.00. I can't do milk, so I eat it dry at work for breakfast. It was delicious. It is gluten free and Kosher. Excellent taste.

Are there any gluten-free cold cereals with a lot of fiber? I'm coming from the All Bran 13g of fiber per cup world, and am finding cereal one of the toughest things to replace.

I went to Whole Foods and bought some Envirokids Cereal Koala Crisp cereal - and I love it! What's nice too - the pieces are small and significantly easier to digest. I also bought a box of a brand called Erewhon strawberry crisp cereal - which I haven't tried yet - but am hoping it's as good as the Evnirokids brand.

Thanks so much for the suggestions! I seem to do better on the Envirokids Cereal than I did on Chex.

The only cold cereal my wife will eat is Fruity Pebbles. She won't eat the Chex stuff because it is to plain I guess.

Gorilla Munch is my favorite, and if I'm having a child-at-heart moment, I pick up some Fruity Pebbles. :)

      There is much helpful 'truth' posted on this forum. Truths about Celiac Disease are based on scientific research and people's experience. Celiac disease is inherited. There are 2 main Celiac 'genes' but they are variations of one gene called HLa - DQ What is inherited when a person inherits one or both of the DQ2 or the DQ8 is a predisposition to develop celiac disease after exposure to a environmental trigger. These 2 versions of the DQ gene are useful in diagnosing  celiac disease but there are about 25 other genes that are known to influence celiac disease so this food intolerance is a multigenic autoimmune disease. So with so many genes involved and each person inheriting a different array of these other genes one person's symptoms may be different than another's symptoms.  so many of these other genes.  I don't think that much research on these other genes as yet. So first I wrote something that seem to tie together celiac disease and migraines.  Then you posted that you had migraines and since you went gluten free they only come back when you are glutened. Then Scott showed an article that reported no connection between migraines and celiac disease, Then Trents wrote that it was possible that celiacs had more migraines  and some believed there was a causal effect. You are each telling the truth as you know it or experienced it.

      Another annoying thing about trying to figure this Celiac life out is reading all of the labels and considering every choice. I shop at Aldi every week and have been for years. I was just officially diagnosed Celiac a couple weeks ago this October after my endoscopy. I've been encouraged by my local Aldi in that they have a lot of gluten free products and clearly labeled foods. I usually buy Milagro corn tortillas because they are cheap and are certified. However, I bought a package of Aldi's Pueblo Lindo Yellow Corn Tortillas without looking too closely (I was assuming they were fine... assuming never gets us anywhere good lol) it doesn't list any wheat products and doesn't say it was processed in a facility with wheat. It has a label that it's lactose free (hello, what?? When has dairy ever been in a tortilla?) Just, ugh. If they can add that label then why can't they just say something is gluten free or not? I did eat some of the tortillas and didn't notice any symptoms but I'm just not sure if it's safe. So I'll probably have to let my family eat them and stick with Milagro. There is way too much uncertainty with this but I guess you just have to stick with the clearly labeled products? I am still learning!

      Thank you all for sharing your experiences! And I am very thankful for that Thanksgiving article, Scott! I will look into it more as I plan my little dinner to bring with on the Holiday I'm also glad a lot of research has been done for Celiac. There's still a lot to learn and discover. And everyone has different symptoms. For me, I get a bad headache right away after eating gluten. Reoccurring migraines and visual disturbances were actually what got my PCP to order a Celiac Panel. I'm glad he did! I feel like when the inflammation hits my body it targets my head, gut, and lower back. I'm still figuring things out but that's what I've noticed after eating gluten! I have been eating gluten-free for almost two months now and haven't had such severe symptoms. I ate a couple accidents along the way but I'm doing a lot better

      @Mari, did you read that second article that Scott linked? It is the most recently date one. "Researchers comparing rates of headaches, including migraines, among celiac patients and a healthy control group showed that celiac subjects experienced higher rates of headaches than control subjects, with the greatest rates of migraines found in celiac women.  Additionally, celiacs had higher rates of migraine than control subjects, especially in women. In fact, four out of five women with celiac disease suffered from migraines, and without aura nearly three-quarters of the time."

      As far as I know and I have made severalonline searches, celiac disease disease has not been recognized as a cause of migraines or any eye problems. What I wrote must have been confusing.
