Hi, just wondering if anyone has tried Glutino's Honey Nut Cereal. Is it any good? Or is it like those awful PerkyO's? I don't want to waste money like I did on that cereal.

Thanks.

I tried it and I wasn't impressed, especially at that price. When I put it in milk it got very sticky. So sticky that it got stuck in all my molars and I had to keep picking it out so I could eat more. If you eat it dry it may be fine because it tasted ok, it just had a bad texture. I also like my cereal mushy and it was hard as well as sticky so it scraped the roof of my mouth. I won't buy it again.

I just bought a box last week, it tastes pretty good to me, I eat cereal dry so I can't help you with how it holds up in milk. It does not remind me of cheerios though, it has a different tastes and resembles something else but I just can't put my finger on it.

I really like the Glutino honey nut cereal. It's especially good for snacking on. To me it tastes a lot better than most of the other sweetened gluten free cereals.

I haven't tried the honey nut one yet, but I tried the apple cinnamon one last week and thought it was pretty good. It's expensive so I wouldn't buy it on a regular basis, but I would get it again when the mood strikes.

i think it's really expensive also so i don't buy it regularly but the honey nut was on sale once. tried it...i'm nuetral. i mean it was better than other gluten-free cereals, but something was off about it. and there was this giant chunk of brown stuff that smelled wierd that came tumbling out of the box which really grossed me out but i ate the rest of the box anyway cause i'm so poor right now... hahaha that was sad :)

but my dad bought the apple cinn. kind for me once and i thought that one was better. def better to snack on than with milk i thought. good luck! :)

:lol: Sorry Katrinamaria, but this just struck me as so funny :lol:

I've tried both, honey nut and the apple cinn. They are okay, but expensive, and I'm pretty sure I've developed an allergy to cinnamon, so won't buy it again.

I've also had the Perky Os .. the only thing I can say about them is that they actually have vitamins in them ... which is more than one can say about most gluten free foods.

      But there will still probably be times when you will get together with your brother and father in their home when food will be involved. You need to think through how you will handle that. In the meantime, separate your stuff from their stuff and keep it under lock and key if necessary.

      Thank you, I'll talk to my doctor and dietitian for some resources they could read. I only have a few months until I can move in with my mother who is a lot more cautious about it.

      Okay, so two issue here: 1. Your brother is creating CC (Cross Contamination) problems by using your gluten free food items and mixing into them gluten containing food. I would suggest you consider keeping your gluten free food items in your bedroom instead of the kitchen. Consider getting a small fridge that will fit in your bedroom for things that need refrigeration. 2. Your dad is not giving proper attention to avoiding gluten containing ingredients when he prepares meals for the family. Do you think he has a good understanding of what gluten is and where it is found in mainline food products? Is he doing this out of carelessness or ignorance? Most people do not have a good understanding of where gluten is found in the food supply. Even those with celiac disease find there is a considerable learning curve involved to this. I mean, who would ever suspect that wheat is an ingredient in soy sauce and in most canned tomato soups, even some chocolate syrups and pancake syrups? Is your dad open to being educated about sources of gluten? Do you think your family members understand that celiac disease is not an allergy but is an autoimmune disorder that can permanently damage your body over time if gluten is not avoided? I think you may need to struggle with this until you are in a position to move out of your family home into your own dwelling where you have complete control over what you eat. I also want you to know that you are not alone in this problem. On this forum, we have had a number of threads started by young people in your same situation.
