As happy as I was when Rice Chex went gluten free, the novelty has worn off a bit. After euphorically eating them every morning, it got a little tedious. Bowl of Rice Chex. Every morning. Again. And again. And again. So I jumped and clapped for joy on my last visit to the supermarket a couple weeks ago. General Mills has had great success with the gluten free Rice Chex, and so Corn Chex is now added to the GF family. There is also a rumor of Cinnamon Chex (yumyumyum) going around, but I can’t confirm that yet. Corn Chex are a great cereal, and now that both are gluten free, making the signature Chex Mix is a breeze! Check out this dee-licious Chili-Garlic Snack mix! Happy Eating!

**Note**-Since the Gluten Free Chex mix is relatively new (as of 4/18/09), your town/city may not have gotten the new GF shipments yet. BE SURE to check the box if it does not say “Now Gluten Free”

    One of the most important things I found out about colon cleaning is you MUST juice fact for 3-5 days to get the OLD stuff out of your system. Of course clear the fasting with your doctor first.
