I, too, have had problems after eating Kelloggs Corn Pops.  This is the
only commercially available cereal that Kelloggs will stipulate as being
GF (the other being the rice cereal available to institutions).  This
poses several questions:
 
1) Is there still cross contamination in spite of whatever efforts are
being made to ensure that this cereal is GF?
 
2)  Are the problems that Lisa and I (and possibly untold others)
experiencing due to some other ingredient or personal chemistry?  (I
tended to suspect the oil listed in the ingredients -- wasn't it coconut?)
 
3)  If they can make these two cereals at a plant dedicated to GF
cereals, then why can't they make Temptations and Nutri-Grain Almond
Raisin there as well?  Even if it was a special run, labelled GF and
available through either mail-order direct from Kellogg's or through some
other mail-order source.  While I want to keep my grocery bill to a
minimum, I also will spring a little extra for a treat on occasion.
 
Any further thoughts on this?
