Check the ingredients. Does it contain malt extract or malt flavoring? There could also be cross contamination with wheat, barley or rye during processing.

This article is specifically about Malt-O-Meal cereals.

Any info on cross contamination between lines with Malt O Meal? I ate their crispy rice today (Feb/11/23) & bit into a small piece of a different texture that had a distinctly cinnamon flavor. My husband ate the same cereal yesterday & is mid gluten reaction now. Not the first time we’ve both reacted to MOM gluten-free cereals since the last bag design change, but thought it was a coincidence.  Very concerning.

According to their site:

Is Berry Colossal Crunch gluten free? This gluten free is very new for me. There are so many things I'm so scared to eat!

It does not say gluten-free on the label, and includes oats which are not marked as gluten-free. Since oats are usually cross-contaminated with wheat you should NOT consider Berry Colossal Crunch to be gluten-free.

I have eaten theses 2 products about 15 times since finding out I have Celiac Disease (EXTREME SENSITIVE) and every single time I found I was getting sick around that. I just recently after months tried again staying free and clear of any gluten sources and got sick AGAIN. I decided to start digging to find that Malt-O-Meal uses Wheat Starch in some of their products and they share the same equipment as the Wheat containing products. Here’s a statement I found about that. 
 

Gluten cross-contamination

While some studies suggest that shared equipment and utensils can be used safely if proper protocols are followed, others have found that gluten levels can be high in gluten-free products. For example, one study found that 13 out of 59 gluten-free products contained gluten levels of 20–200 ppm.

 I really hope this information helps someone to not get sick. I was just recently passing straight blood because of eating it 3 times back to back.

If these cereals where made on shared equipment with wheat, then they would need to disclose wheat as a potential allergen on the ingredient labels, which they do not. Where did you get the information that these cereals are made on shared equipment?
