Gluten Free is Life

I am a gluten-free wife, runner & blogger with two children in Columbus, Ohio. After my celiac diagnosis in 2006, I have made it my mission to embrace an entirely new approach to nutrition in a gluten-free world, exploring options that run the gamut from “made from scratch” homemade bread to sampling and reviewing the gluten-free prepared foods that are continuously being introduced to the market. While navigating the waters of becoming gluten-free, I share my experiences and pass along valuable product reviews in addition to helping other moms of celiac kids develop healthy menus that are kid-friendly and palatable. I feel that I am a valuable resource for those who are newly diagnosed, as well as for the more seasoned gluten-free veterans.

Gluten-Free Rice Krispies Clarification 

Friday, April 29, 2011 7:22:17 PM

 

After writing my post on Gluten-Free Rice Krispies, I received a couple of questions about the cereal, so I sent an email off to find out the answers.  I am going to share them below. 

The first question was whether or not the new Gluten-Free Rice Krispies would be available in Canada.  This was the answer I received:

"Regarding your question about the product being available in Canada, at the present time this a U.S-only launch."

The next question was: Do you know if they are testing it for gluten or just that they are not actively putting gluten in it? What about cross-contamination?  This is the answer I received:

"And as for testing it for gluten, to ensure the gluten-free status, the product is made in a separate production facility that has been making gluten-free items for nearly a decade. Every batch of product is tested for gluten, as is the production line."

I hope this helps to clear up any confusion with the soon-to-be released product. 


While I have your attention, I would like to remind you that May 4th is quickly approaching.  Remember, that is the day that The Gluten-Free Food Labeling Summit takes place in Washington, DC.  There was even a write up in the Washington Post today about it!  Big time!  If you haven’t taken the time to sign the petition yet, please do so.  It won’t hurt, I promise.  Winking smile
