Celiac Disease Support Group
Celiac disease is an auto-immune disorder of the digestive system that occurs in genetically-predisposed individuals. It is characterised by damage or flattening to all or part of the villi lining the small intestine, which interferes with the absorption of nutrients. This damage is caused by eating anything with gluten (gliadin), a protein found in wheat, rye, and barley...
What makes you think that all the other chex are gluten free?
There are plenty of companies who produce GF products like these. They taste wonderful. They do not make Celiac's ill. They are safe.
Then some idiot stock person decided they should be nest to or under the gluten mixes of the same type. You find them all mixed in with the contaminated product.
With baking products the flour leaks thru the bag and gets everywhere. That will make Celiac's ill. There is no way to wash off the box or inside bag so the product is useless.
here's hoping that they stock these items properly in the stores near you.
Check the General Mills website they list their cereals as they are producing them in their GF facility.
I would "NEVER" have posted here if the cereals were not made in a dedicated facility.
As they are being produced in thier GF Facility they will label the cereal boxes GF. They hope to have all thier flavors (except wheat chex) GF by June of 2009.
Thanks for the kindness in your response.
In case you can't tell :-) I've heard things like this so many times over the decades and been dissapointed that I do not get my hopes up anymore.
Thank God for people like you with the energy to take this on for people like me who have battle fatigue.
You are a real angel. I used to eat chex all the time. Hope they get here soon. This is almost like being a kid again on Christmas morning.
Thanks a bunch!!
