<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Our two and a half year old has recently been introduced to a dairy-free diet. Next week, he goes on the gluten-free diet. One of the things we're a little intimidated by is removing cheerios from his life. It's not just a breakfast food, it's a great snack food, it helps calm him down in restaurants and in the car, etc. Is there such a thing as a substitute -- that he might actually like? Sheldon
