Just an FYI.  I contacted General Mills to thank them about the new cereal
Rice ChexR which is Gluten Free.  This is their answer to me.  It would be
great if more people contacted them!



  Dear Valued Consumer:
* *
Thank you for contacting General Mills regarding gluten in our cereal.  It
was kind of you to share your thoughts, and you have brightened our day.

It is our goal to help our consumers determine whether or not they can
include our products in their diet.  To accurately accomplish this, we
believe it is best to refer to the specific ingredients listed on each
product package.

However, we do understand that ingredients can be confusing, so we want to
assure you if the ingredient label does not list wheat, barley, rye, oats or
gluten containing ingredients sourced from these grains, then the product
would be gluten-free.  Sources of gluten are listed on the label even if the
source of gluten is part of another ingredient (such as flavoring or spice).
Because ingredients may vary from one package to another due to product
reformulation, you should use the product's ingredient label to provide you
with current and accurate information.

Additional information regarding gluten may be obtained by contacting your
health care professional or:

We hope this information is helpful.
  Sincerely,
