General Mills Honey Nut Chex Now gluten-free

Keep an eye out for the reformulated version of General Mills Honey Nut Chex, as they are now gluten-free. The boxes have the words "Gluten Free" right on the front. Found them at Wegman's in Cherry Hill, NJ.

They Chex themselves are corn-based, not rice, so hopefully the Corn Chex will also be made gluten-free in due time.

BTW, I know others have posted that the corn Kix (not the berry or honey kinds) are gluten-free, but I have not seen those in the stores yet around here.

That's great news! Thanks for the heads-up!

I was one of the people who reported on the Kix. I bought two boxes of all-corn oat-free Kix at two different stores (Walmart and Winco) a week or so apart. I haven't seen them since, in any store.

I look forward to the Honey-Nut Chex... what nuts are in it? I do hope that eventually we'll see gluten-free corn chex. I really didn't grow up on sweetened cereal and I prefer plain rice chex to strawberry chex most of the time... but only having one cereal gets old after a while.

I also buy the Envirokidz cereals, but again, they're sweetened. I'd much rather have a selection of less sugary cereals to choose from! I really enjoyed my two boxes of Kix while I had them, and every time I'm in a grocery store I look for them again!

Corn Chex Gluten Free!

I also know that General Mills has reformulated Strawberry Chex to take out the malt syrup and use molasses to make gluten free. Also Chocolate Lucky Charms is gluten free and Trix.

MAKE SURE YOU READ THE LABELS BEFORE BUYING!

WAY TO GO GENERAL MILLS!

I can't hardly believe it. That's great news! I eat Rice Chex EVERY MORNING. Have practically since they came out gluten-free. Going to Wally World today to check out the Corn Chex & Honey Nut Chex.

WooHoo! :D

Our W-mart doesn't have the corn Kix. I got them at another store, once, they have the old Kix there again. Thanks for posting the good news about Honey Chex! :)

For those that want less sugary cereal, don't forget to mix them in your bowl.

Strawberry Chex with Rice Chex, Rice Chex and Fruity Pebbles...

Elizabeth - Did the Kix say Gluten Free on the Box? I looked at a box in Central Market (H-E-B) and noticed it no longer contained oats or barley, but didn't buy them because I wasn't 100% sure. The Honey Nut Chex pre gluten free used Almond, hopefully that won't change.

No, it did not say Gluten Free on the box, but there were no even remotely suspicious ingredients listed as far as I could tell. Have you seen the all-corn Kix recently? It's been quite a while since I've seen it.

I hope they're still using almonds. :) That sounds yummy.

I'm sad that there are many on the shelf products not available in Canada. These would be great, and the Betty Crocker cake mixes!!

      Help with results

      By mariamccl · Posted

      Hi, 25f who recently had a endoscopy procedure to diagnose celiac disease. Mum and uncle are both diagnosed celiacs. I've had symptoms over the past year - headaches that have become debilitating and frequent, feeling faint and nauseous with high heart rate, diarrhea and constipation, anemia, and recently my periods have become almost non existent. My doctor sent me a letter yesterday saying this " biopsies from the duodenum show some very mild features that could be in keeping with celiac disease but also could be due to other causes". I am waiting on an appointment to see him in the clinic to discuss this but in the meantime I wanted to check if anyone else has experienced this? I was eating plenty of gluten before my camera test and for the past 2 weeks have completely cut it out of my diet and I'm seeing changes in my bowel movements for the first time in my life! Headaches, dizziness etc are still there but maybe it takes longer for them to go away? Any help would be so appreciated -  I feel so lost in this whole process!!

      Did your symptoms improve after going on a gluten-free diet?

      Testing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Thank you for sharing your genetic test results and background. Your results indicate you carry one half of the DQ2 heterodimer (DQA1*05), which is associated with a very low celiac disease risk (0.05%). While most celiac patients have either DQ2 or DQ8, these genes are also present in people without celiac disease, so the test alone doesn’t confirm a diagnosis. Since you’ve been gluten-free for 10 years, traditional diagnostic methods (like endoscopy or blood tests) would not be reliable now. If an official diagnosis is important to you, consider discussing a gluten challenge with your doctor, where you reintroduce gluten for a period before testing. Alternatively, you could focus on symptom management and dietary adherence, as your gluten-free diet seems to be helping. Consulting a gastroenterologist or celiac specialist could provide further clarity.  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Celiac or Addison's complications? Can someone share their experience?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      @cvz Thank you for sharing your daughter’s story. It sounds like she is managing multiple complex conditions with great care and diligence. It’s encouraging to hear that she is compliant with her gluten-free diet and that her Addison’s disease symptoms are under control. The addition of electrolytes seems like a thoughtful suggestion, especially given her fluid intake. It’s also reassuring that she hasn’t shown noticeable symptoms from accidental gluten exposure, though it’s understandable how challenging it can be to monitor for such incidents. The unexplained high lipase levels are intriguing—perhaps further investigation or consultation with a specialist could provide more clarity. Wishing you both continued strength and success in managing her health. Please keep us updated on her progress!
