I was looking in the cereal aisle the other day and noticed that Kix had a new look. It's supposed to be all-natural now. --None of this is reflected on their website, but I KNOW I saw it!
On a whim, I picked it up and read the ingredients label. I remember it used to contain oats, but now it does not. None of the other ingredients screamed "gluten," so I'm hoping that General Mills pulls another Rice Chex move and certifies it gluten free.
I miss kix but I won't eat it unless they say it's GF for sure. I've tried some of their cereals that don't contain gluten ingredients, but I don't trust the contamination issue. If I'm trying so hard to stay gluten free, I'm not going to mess it up with a measly bowl of cereal. You know?
So, anyway, let's all hope General Mills continues to make more GF cereals.

Yoplait's GF Labeling
So I was just sitting here eating my yogurt. When I bought it in the store I made sure to read the ingredients, like everything. But this time when I turned it around to read as I ate, I saw on the side: GLUTEN FREE. Bad ass man. So I guess now Yoplait now puts that on their yogurts that are gluten free.
I get excited when I see that written on packages. :o)

updates
Quick update. Haven't been cooking much lately.
I was at Quizno's the other day picking up a sandwich for the man when I grabbed a Sobe Life Water because I was parched and it looked yummy. After a large gulp I figured I should read the ingredients, just in case. Well poop in my cereal. Right there on the label of WATER, was modified food starch. It was a Sunday so the hotline was closed but I did some searching online and found out all of the Sobe Life Waters are gluten free. Sweet.
Found out Kroger has a pretty good gluten free section on their website for all of the store brand products.
And all of Kraft brand products will say right on the label if anything is derived from wheat. For example, Modified Food Starch (Wheat). When I spoke to the lady on the phone she said if it doesn't specify then it's okay.
So that's the news for today.
