Our local grocery sells Rice Chex for $3.99 for a stupid 10-oz box, and the Target in the same shopping center sells a larger box for $1.68!

Yay Target!

celiacs love rice chex!

but stock up now while the price is low. my local Walmart did the same thing a few months back...at first they were $1.66 a box. then the price went up to $2.00 and now it's $2.98. still cheaper than the grocery stores but the price doubled in a matter of a few months.

i found it on sale at genuardi's (safeway) earlier this week, but the sale is over. so keep you eye out there, too!

Also keep your eye out for coupons. I snagged a bunch of boxes that had coupons for $3 off when you buy any 3 GM cereals.

I got excited about the Target deal when someone else reported it, but when I went looking, the cost was well over $3 - pretty comparable to everywhere else. I did get in on the $1.66 Walmart deal, though. I'll keep watching Target.

Seems to be on sale often, but Target gets half our business for being consistently lower on many items.

I didn't think rice chex were gluten free.

The formula was changed a few months ago, and the new formula is gluten-free.You have to look at the box, since the old stuff may still be available in stores, but the new production is gluten-free.

Rice Chex is not only now gluten free, but they make a big old deal about it on the box, and one of the side panels tells all about celiac disease and gluten sensitivity!!

I found it at that price at my Target a few weeks ago. I bought 10 boxes most of which I'm planning to send to my friend who is at a convent in NY. She said there are a seminarian and friar who both have celiac and when a cereal is donated that they can eat everyone gets so excited, LOL. When she visited last I sent back some gluten-free foods with her for them. The price at Target means I can send them several boxes of gluten-free cereal that I know will be greatly appreciated!

I just realized that I forgot to put the cost in my post abouve about Safeway (genuardi's)...it was $1.50 per box...the cheapest I have seen anywhere, and I almost didn't believe it so double and triple checked the sign and also when paying for it. I don't know if it will go that low again, but I check every time I go in!

      I was just thinking this same thing - requesting repeat testing prior to giving up gluten. Makes sense. Thanks!

      Since you're having a last hurrah with gluten, request another round of blood tests for celiac antibodies.  Make sure you're eating ten grams or more daily for those few weeks before your capsule endoscopy.  You probably weren't eating a sufficient amount of gluten needed to provoke sufficient antibody production.

      Hello all I am taking some time out from work today to make my annual Christmas cake along the lines of a tried and tested English recipe which means a fruit cake, with marzipan  and icing.   As usual, I've left it too late - we're meant to bake these things some time  in advance to improve the flavour.    I never remember.  But it never seems to matter! I thought I'd share it in case any UK coeliacs still haven't made theirs and don't have a recipe, or any of my friends across the Pond want to try making one.  Do you make iced fruit cakes like this in the US for Christmas? - I have no idea! I adapt it slightly as instead of fondant icing I make Royal Icing which sets hard and you can create exciting snow scenes with it if you can find any tiny model houses, churches and trees to put on it!  (my Mum used to do this).   https://www.coeliac.org.uk/information-and-support/your-gluten-free-hub/home-of-gluten-free-recipes/1511804/ With thanks to the charity Coeliac Uk for this recipe.

      Welcome to the forum, @Art Maltman! Ask your physician to order serum antibody tests specifically designed to detect celiac disease. That's the place to start but you shouldn't be on a gluten free diet some weeks before the blood draw. You certainly have some symptoms that are characteristic of celiac disease and you have a first degree relative that has celiac disease. So, I think this would be an appropriate request to bring to your physician. Here is an article outlining the various serum antibody tests that can be ordered when checking for celiac disease:   The physician may not be open to ordering a full panel but push for at least these two: total IGA and tTG-IGA. By the way, absence of gut pain is very common in the celiac population. We call them "silent" celiacs as they have no or very minor symptoms. There are over 200 symptoms and spinoff health issues that have become associated with celiac disease and the range of symptoms and effects produced by the disease in different individuals various tremendously.
