Guest guest Posted January 9, 2006 Report Share Posted January 9, 2006 Someone recently mentioned these were still safe. They must be made by the same company that makes Krogers brand (they outsource their cereal), in any case, the ones on the shelf in my Denver Safeway now say Wheat Starch in the ingredients. Boo Hoo!

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2006 Report Share Posted January 10, 2006 My guess on why you can still find some that are safe is that they are just hitting the market and so there are some older ones out there still safe. I am pretty sad and discouraged when I see all of the cereals disappear. I am just making the decision to do other foods for the 3 of us who are GF. Maybe one of the main stream cereal makers will get a clue and help us out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2006 Report Share Posted January 11, 2006 I went to my local Safeway on the way home, checked the ingredient list, and bought the seven boxes that were on the shelf! I'm going to be stuck in a board meeting Thursday and Friday all day, or I would call Safeway customer service to ask what's up. Does anyone on the list have time to check it out with them? If not, I can plan to do it on Monday of next week.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 I got out of my meeting a little early and I was able to call Safeway corporate offices. I spoke to a very nice customer service person who confirmed the sad news that the manufacturer changed their recipe in September to include wheat starch in an effort to meet the government's new dietary guidelines about reducing trans fat! He said it was a decision by the manufacturer, not Safeway, but encouraged customers to log their feelings about it with Safeway. The phone number is . You can send them a letter at Safeway Corporation, P.O. Box 99, Pleasanton, CA 94560. He said they do pay attention to things like that. Now, I know it's not the healthiest of all cereals, but it has been really nice to be able to eat something that tastes normal!
