Guest guest Posted August 23, 2004 Report Share Posted August 23, 2004 You should try the EnviroKids Koala Crisp. It's an OK substitute for Cocoa Pebbles, but not nearly as sweet. I eat them mixed with corn flakes and they're pretty good and make the milk chocolately. They sell it as some Trader Joe's and I've seen them at Whole Foods or Wild Oats. > I bought some cocoa pebbles yesterday because I had read in a lot of > sources that they were Gluten Free. > > I ate some this morning and had a terrible reaction.

Guest guest Posted August 24, 2004 Report Share Posted August 24, 2004 Enviro Kids are good. I get a lot of their cereals at Whole Foods. I just took a chance on Cocoa Pebbles because I had read they were GF.

Guest guest Posted August 25, 2004 Report Share Posted August 25, 2004 I bought some of the Koala Crisp and tried them today. They are quite good. I do feel a little silly though eating them as 30 year old! > > I bought some cocoa pebbles yesterday because I had read in a lot > of > > sources that they were Gluten Free. > > > > I ate some this morning and had a terrible reaction.
