anomale, you’re not the only one to report problems with the Chex cereals that are supposed to be gluten-free.

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.

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.

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.

From the comments here if would appear that one should be very cautious about Rice Chex.

Lots of people have commented on this cereal: it’s not gluten-free and makes a lot of celiacs sick.

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.

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.
