Thank you…thank you …thank you for making Rice Chex gluten free! My daughter has celiac disease and this is wonderful to open up another eating option for her. I will spread the word to everyone that is celiac.
Thank you again!
Thank you for paying attention to us who must keep ourselves gluten free. Life is so much easier when we can shop at the supermarkets and not the expensive health food stores. Some years ago Kellogs put out a cereal called KenMai Rice Bran, but abandoned it after a short time. Not cost effective, I guess, but now that doctors are now paying attention to food as a major health concern, maybe more companies like yours will serve our population better. Keep sending us recipes using your products, please.
Yes, manufacturers are definitely paying attention. Gluten has gotten lots of attention. I can’t believe all the gluten-free options I’m seeing on the shelves now. :)
Not just rice chex, which I am still allergic to…corn chex is now gluten free! Thank you for making this gluten free, corn cereal that is fortified with vitamins! Very important, since I have yet to find a multi-vitamin I can take. I haven’t been able to find a gluten free corn cereal that is fortified even in the health food stores…now I can go to the regular grocery store…=)
Just a caution…I received a comment via email from someone who said that Rice Chex made her sick, even though they are supposedly gluten-free. I guess with that in mind, I’d do a small sample of this or any gluten-free food if in doubt and see how you tolerate it.
Please BEWARE!! I have been eating the new gluten free chex and love them. I went to the store and grabbed another box. When I ate this box I realized something was very wrong. I got symptoms and I took a closer look at the box and realized this was an older box mixed in with the new gluten free boxes. Please be cautious.
Lots of people have commented on this cereal: it’s not gluten-free and makes a lot of celiacs sick.
From the comments here if would appear that one should be very cautious about Rice Chex.
I am not Celiacs but I am highly gluten intolerant and these GF Rice Chex gave me really bad cramping, bloating, pain, etc. all of my gluten symptoms :(
And I thought I was going crazy because I felt bad after eating the GF Rice Chex. I may try to give them a call to find out if they are producing them on the same line as the Wheat Chex…which they are sold right next to in the store.
I have gotten sick twice from the gluten free Corn Chex. The first box I tried was great. When we bought a second box, I got sick twice after eating some. I think there must be cross-contamination going on somewhere in the manufacturing.
Is it possible to make the gluten free rice chex with out adding BHT?
I had a bowl this morning (RICE CHEX) and became dizzy and foggy and then had a bout of diarrhea which i also notice sometimes after eating rice. I commend the company for tryinf to put products out there for peeps who have celiac disease or gluten intolerances though. I havent tried any of the many other GF cereals they offer but now that I know they package with BHT, I will not be eating any of them. They might do well to remove that awful toxin. I was feeling GREAT up until I ate that bowl. It is possible for the gluten intolerant to be sensitive to other foods so it is important to keep a diary of foods. I also keep track of my menstrual cycle, bowel movements, barometric pressure, humidity and exercise on a daily basis. I mean, if we really want to take control of our health we have got be thorough and be self-motivated and proactive.
anomale, you’re not the only one to report problems with the Chex cereals that are supposed to be gluten-free.
