Laurie4b Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Does anyone know whether Joe's O's are wheat free/gluten free? Wheat is not listed on the ingredients like it is on regular Cheerios, but neither is the package labeled wheat free/gluten free. Does anyone know for sure?

Kathy in MD Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 Oats contain gluten, so they won't be gluten-free. I don't know how much gluten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5knights3maidens Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 I know there has been some talk about gluten free oats. ? Maybe try Bob's Red Mill. They do have gluten-free oats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie4b Posted June 13, 2008 Author Share Posted June 13, 2008 Thanks! I always thought that gluten was a wheat product. My new factoid of the day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandra in FL Posted June 17, 2008 Share Posted June 17, 2008 rice, buckwheat, millet and quinoa are all gluten-free. Buckwheat is the only grain I've found that will stick together enough to make pancakes as my ds is also allergic to eggs (which binds grains together). HTH, Sandra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 2Boyz Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I'm sorry but I needed to clarify. "Kathy in MD" is wrong. Oats do NOT have gluten in them but may have been EXPOSED to gluten in mills or other manufacturing processes. Visit www.foodallergysolutions.com/food-allergy-news0204.html for explanation.

ElizabethB Posted March 6, 2009 Share Posted March 6, 2009 (edited) rice, buckwheat, millet and quinoa are all gluten-free. Buckwheat is the only grain I've found that will stick together enough to make pancakes as my ds is also allergic to eggs (which binds grains together). HTH, Sandra I've found millet flour pancakes also turn out OK, although they do break apart easily, they stick together enough to make a pancake. I am also allergic to eggs, I just use oil, a bit of maple syrup, baking soda, and water in the mix, then heat on a frying pan with a moderate amount of oil (more than for regular pancakes.) Oat pancakes are also good. Teff flour is a nice flour for cookies, and makes a sweeter pancake that could be used for crepes if made thin. Teff flour is gluten free and has a mild sweet taste, I like it a lot (although I think I'm now allergic to it, too, I need to eat it in isolation to make sure.)

Dobela Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 There is a cereal called Perky O's that is gluten free and tastes like Cheerios. We used to buy it at Kroger but they no longer carry it here and now I buy it at a health food store. http://www.perkysnaturalfoods.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matryoshka Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Trader Joe's has a list of its gluten-free products available. I'm sure if you asked at the service desk you could get it and find out if the Joe's O's are "officially" gluten-free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
