Where Can I Find Gluten Free Rice Krispies?

I've looked at the grocery store in town and at Wal-mart neither had them. Does anyone know?

I have gotten them at Target and Hen House, maybe Walmart. They are usually with the regular cereal but not always next to the regular Krispies. Depends on the store.

I've seen them in walmart before, but again they were with the other cereals. Also, this was one of those really big walmarts (the biger supers) too.

Every mainstream grocery store here has them. They are always near the Rice Krispies but never exactly next to them. They are a main stream cereal, they are never with the health foods/gluten free foods here. I have never seen them in a health food store. I don't recall seeing them in Wal-Mart. It is also my personal opinion that they suck. Everyone should try them, but don't set your expectations too high and don't be terribly disappointed if you don't find them right away.

Since you seem to have some issues with finding things, I highly recommend internet shopping.

Are these 'real' rice krispie treats? If so, I've never seen them. My husband makes his own using gluten-free rice krispies and different flavored marshmallows. Cheap and makes more than what you would get on a box.

These are not treats, they are a gluten-free version of the Rice Krispies cereal, made from brown rice and without the added barley. Here, they are in the regular cereal section of most grocery stores. I enjoy them, but your taste may vary.

Not all the stores have them - it varies by geographic region. The Safeway, QFC, and Targets near me (in the Puget Sound, near Bellevue) have regular Kellog's Rice Crispies, but none of them carry the gluten free variety.

Rather annoying, really.

Our Martin's carries them. I know the wal mart and target around my way do not. If you have a Martin's or ukropts try them.

I called the company to see where to get them. I was told that no one within 50 miles of my zip code carried the gluten freeRice Krispies. I spoke to the manager at Kroger, and he said he would try to order them. No success yet. I guess it is a regional thing. Here (Mississippi) we often do not have access to products readily available in other areas.

My local Kroger used to sell them...but they don't anymore. Only place I can find them is Meijer (well, Walmart might have them, but I have a very hard time going in there). Normally Meijer is out of stock when I look for them (I'm thinking some local celiac has a homemade rice krispie treat addiction problem) :P Recently used a gluten-free puffed rice cereal I bought at Whole Foods to make rice krispie treats - not as good, but they did the trick!

If all else fails, and no stores nearby carry them, you could order them in bulk (4- packs) from the big online store known as Am --zon

(can't provide you a link as they spam the forum and it will not post)

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the brain fog is back and I feel very tired.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed.
