Kellog's Rice Crispies?

Does anyone know if Kellog's Rice Crispy treats are safe to eat? I looked at the ingredients and it did not look like there was any wheat in it but it didn't state it was gluten free either. For that matter is rice or even marshmallows gluten-free???

What are the ingredients? They used to have malt in them which would make them unsafe for us as it comes from barley.

They do make a gluten free variety of Rice Crispies that are safe for us. I use those to make my own treats so I haven't looked at the ready made ones.

Plain rice is gluten free and many marshmellows are also.

The original Rice Crispies have Barley Malt. So did the ready made Rice Crispy treats last time I looked. Those are definitely not safe. Barley is a gluten grain.

There is a New Rice Crispies that is Gluten Free and it is made with brown rice. I think you have to make your own treats. Open Original Shared Link

Nope, premade ones have malt . . . so those are a no-go.

I don't like to make a big batch of Rice Krispie treats because I end up eating most of them. You can just make a cup at a time . . . microwave cup, a little butter and a handful of marshmallows (kraft brand is good) a few seconds on the microwave to melt, stir till smooth, add (gluten-free)Rice Krispies and stir again. You can even eat them straight out of the cup . . . :huh: . . . not that I've ever done that.

Don't judge me :ph34r:

Pre made are out (sorry!). As far as making them on your own, in my store they sell both regular (with malt) and gluten free so you have to be careful. I don't really care for the gluten-free rice krispies so I trade them for fruity pebbles which are gluten-free :)

The marshmallows should be safe--I haven't found one that isn't.

I was just making some fruity pebbles treats of my own and low and behold the back of the box advertised for gluten free premade fruity and coco pebble treats! Prefect timing so I had to share :)

I do this too! Sometimes I make them in the morning to send in my son's lunchbox. I'm with you ... if I make a big batch I wind up eating way too many.

Our grocery store doesn't sell the gluten-free Rice Krispies -- I bought some natural-foods brand "crispy brown rice puffs" at Whole Foods and was going to try making treats with them, but I don't have high hopes. I might wind up making Fruity Pebble treats too!

      The discovery of the vitamin D receptor in multiple immune cell lineages, such as monocytes, dendritic cells, and activated T cells credits vitamin D with a novel role in modulating immunological functions and its subsequent role in the development or prevention of autoimmune diseases.  The Implication of Vitamin D and Autoimmunity: a Comprehensive Review

      Definitely get vitamin D 25(OH)D.  Celiac Disease causes vitamin D deficiency and one of the functions of vitamin D is modulating the genes.  While we can survive with low vitamin D as an adaptation to living in a seasonal environment, the homeostasis is 200 nmol/L.  Vitamin D Receptors are found in nearly every cell with a nucleus,while the highest concentrations are in tissues like the intestine, kidney, parathyroid, and bone.  A cellular communication system, if you will. The vitamin D receptor: contemporary genomic approaches reveal new basic and translational insights  Possible Root Causes of Histamine Intolerance. "Low levels of certain nutrients like copper, Vitamins A, B6, and C can lead to histamine build up along with excess or deficient levels of iron. Iodine also plays a crucial role in histamine regulation."

      I forgot to mention my suspicion of the high amount of glyphosate allowed to be used on wheat in USA and NZ and Australia. My weight was 69kg mid-2023, I went down to 60kg in March 2024 and now hover around 63kg (just after winter here in NZ) - wheat-free and very low alcohol consumption.

      Hi Jess Thanks so much for your response and apologies for the long delay in answering. I think I must have been waiting for something to happen before I replied and unfortunately it fell off the radar... I have had an upper endoscopy and colonoscopy in the meantime (which revealed 'minor' issues only). Yes I do think histamine intolerance is one of the problems. I have been lowering my histamine intake and feeling a lot better. And I do think it is the liver which is giving the pain. I am currently taking zinc (I have had three low zinc tests now), magnesium, B complex, vitamin E and a calcium/Vitamin C mix. I consciously think about getting vitamin D outside. (Maybe I should have my vitamin D re-tested now...) I am still 100% gluten-free. My current thoughts on the cause of the problems is some, if not all, of the following: Genetically low zinc uptake, lack of vitamin D, wine drinking (alcohol/sulphites), covid, immune depletion, gastroparesis, dysbiosis, leaky gut, inability to process certain foods I am so much better than late 2023 so feel very positive 🙂

      Hi and thank you very much for your detailed response! I am so glad that the protocol worked so well for you and helped you to get your health back on track. I've heard of it helping other people too. One question I have is how did you maintain your weight on this diet? I really rely on nuts and rice to keep me at a steady weight because I tend to lose weight quickly and am having a hard time envisioning how to make it work, especially when not being able to eat things like nuts and avocados. In case you have any input, woud be great to hear it! Friendly greetings.
