Comments on: Gluten-Free Snacks for School http://celiacfamily.com/gluten-free-school-snacks/ Tue, 07 Feb 2012 14:24:29 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Heather http://celiacfamily.com/gluten-free-school-snacks/comment-page-1/#comment-4189 Heather Wed, 10 Aug 2011 18:53:22 +0000 http://celiacfamily.com/?p=2159#comment-4189 Valerie - Thanks for your addition to this post. I was happy to see Kellogg's venture into the gluten free market this year. Make sure you are purchasing the gluten-free version of Rice Krispies. They still make the original with malt flavoring. I also posted a more thorough review of the new <a href="http://celiacfamily.com/gluten-free-rice-krispies/" rel="nofollow">gluten-free Rice Krispies</a> this summer. I would caution anyone on a gluten-free diet to avoid other Kellogg's products with malt and/or wheat starch. Those are not appropriate for anyone with Celiac Disease. We haven't tried all of their products that are gluten free. However, my family has eaten Kellogg's fruit snacks without any problems. Valerie – Thanks for your addition to this post.

Answer: Yes, we recently launched Kellogg's® Rice Krispies® Gluten Free cereal for people who avoid gluten in their diets. The new cereal eliminates barley malt (the source of gluten in original Kellogg's® Rice Krispies® cereal) and is made with whole grain brown rice. Kellogg's® Rice Krispies® Gluten Free cereal is produced in a separate facility that's made gluten-free products for nearly a decade. Each batch of product is tested to ensure its gluten-free status. Look for it in the same cereal aisle as original Kellogg's® Rice Krispies® cereal. At this time, we do not offer any waffle, cookie, cracker, or vegetarian products suitable for consumers on a gluten-free diet. Kellogg's® Eggo™ Syrup, Kellogg's™ Fruit Flavored Snacks, Kellogg's™ Special K2O™ Protein Water Mixes, and Kellogg's™ Special K™ Protein Shakes do not have any gluten-containing ingredients and may be acceptable for consumers on restricted diets. Depending on gluten sensitivity, Kellogg's® Rice Krispies®, Kellogg's Corn Flakes®, Kellogg's Frosted Flakes®, Kellogg's® Cocoa Krispies®, Crispix®, and Kellogg's® Corn Pops® might be suitable for persons on a gluten restricted diet. Rice Krispies, Corn Flakes, Frosted Flakes, Crispix, and Cocoa Krispies have a small amount of malt flavoring, made from barley. Corn Pops have a very small amount of wheat starch added. Check with your personal physician to determine if these products are appropriate for you. THANK YOU KELLOGS!! I recently asked this to Kellogs: Do you have any gluten-free products?

I just had a group member asking the snack question and while I shared some of the same ideas, I'll pass your link on to her, too. I'm sure she'll find your blog a valuable family resource with two newly diagnosed daughters, ages 4 and 6.
