Rice Chex -- Now Gluten Free!
Thank you, General Mills, for reformulating your Rice Chex. Same great taste! Same great crunch! Now safe for gluten-intolerant folks and celiacs! (Specially Marked Boxes Only)
Now, if only they'd do the same for Corn Chex...
Oh yeah -- it is so convenient to have a case delivered right to my front door through Amazon's subscription service. I tried to find the new Rice Chex at my local grocery store, and they were out.
Not Gluten-free. An "A" for effort, though.
Edit:
In some markets (or possibly all, and it hasn't reached the town I live in yet) General Mills has reportedly taken off the "Gluten Free" label.
I'm so sad. Now I can't sue. That would have been a really fun class action lawsuit.
Original review: A lot of celiacs get sick from this. If you are feeding this to a small child with celiac who won't really be able to tell you so, you might want to reconsider.
While I applaud the efforts of General Mills, I think they have a learning curve: various websites have celiacs complaining of 'being glutened' by this.
Personally, I actually called General Mills to complain about getting sick after eating this; they told me they test for gliadin, which is the gluten in wheat. What they didn't say, is whether they run these cereals on lines of oat cereals. Avenin, the gluten in oats, cannot be tolerated by 25% of celiacs.
So, either this isn't entirely gluten free of wheat proteins, or it's not avenin (oat gluten) free. Buyer beware.
Edit: STILL not gluten-free. There are more comments from more and more people on the celiac boards about getting sick from this. Wow. I can hear the pitter patter of a million tiny wingtips from here.
I am most pleased...
...to see that Rice Chex are now Gluten Free! This was my favorite cereal prior to being diagnosed with CD and I am very excited to see that it is back on my menu!
