I have been eating Grits made by quaker fruquently and thanks to this board realized they are really bad about cross contaminating, does anyone have an alternative, I am low in iron and they had a good source of nutrition plus I loved them! if anyone has any suggestions please let me know!

I ate a lot of grits when I started gluten-free diet 11 months ago. The brand I had was Quaker Quick Grits. I did not have a problem then and as matter of fact I had some this morning for the first time in a couple of months. Once again everything seems ok. I don't know if I'm not very sensitive but I definitely have celiac disease. I would say they were fine.

My daughter and I have been eating arrow head mills grits with no problems. They say gluten-free on the box. They are pretty good too!

I eat quaker grits and the wal-mart brand without any problems. I didn't realize there was a cross-contamination issue with Quaker.

I don't trust Quaker products in the US. They have stated on multuple occasions that there is a cross contamination risk with everything they make and that nothing is made on dedicated lines. Thats enough for me to steer clear. I buy arrowhead Mills, which I get at Whole Foods. Its not instant, but as a breakfast its not that hard to make.

What exactly are grits made from? I miss them - grew up with them in Florida.

Grits are made of corn.

Grits is basically ground up corn thats not small enough to be corn meal. I used to like the white grits, the ones served in restaurants, but I've discovered Arrowhead mills Yellow grits and I like it much better. The yellow ones use the whole corn kernel, so have more nutritional value too.

Rats - can't have corn. That is the reason I have been afraid to try (and I'm the only one in my current family that likes them).

      The critic acid and sodium citrate is corn unfortunately and they don’t have to label corn because it’s not part of the top 9 allergen and not mandatory 😭

      Yaya, from the JAMA study you refer to: "Taking 60,000 international units (IU) a day of vitamin D for several months has been shown to cause toxicity." No one on this forum is recommending  taking anywhere near that amount. We're talking about 5-10,000IU daily.

      "Doses higher than the RDA are sometimes used to treat medical problems such as vitamin D deficiency, but these are given only under the care of a doctor for a specified time frame. Blood levels should be monitored while someone is taking high doses of vitamin D." Quoted from the Healthline article @Yaya linked above...
