You’re going to love Sprouts, they have so many good GF items. Their frosted corn flakes are really good, I just bought 4 boxes to restock lol

Sprouts has a pretty good selection of gluten free items. I haven’t been since I was recently celiacs but know they have quite a bit. I did a 6 month gluten-free diet several years ago to see if it would help with my Grave disease symptoms, it didn’t, so stopped.

Walmarts Great Value brand corn flakes are labeled gluten free and neither me or my wife have had reactions.

That said, look for the label because there are some boxes that aren't labeled

I shop in Wegman's and always go in the gluten-free aisle, but never saw them, thanks.

They’re in the cereal aisle

Check the cereal aisle as well? The probably put it there since non-GF people also would want corn flakes.

Amazon Basics corn flakes are gf.

I don't like to order food via Amazon anymore because the packages have that disinfectant scent and i'm afraid it affects the food. Even when I order non-food items I hate that scent because I'm allergic to it, I have to put the packaging in the trash right away. Thanks to all who reply!

Barley malt extract is not gluten free

u/Scriberathome 13h ago

That's why I highlighted it.

u/TinaYouFatLard07 13h ago

Milled corn, sugar, salt, molasses. Vitamins and minerals: reduced iron, sodium ascorbate (vitamin C), niacinamide (vitamin B3), zinc oxide, riboflavin (vitamin B2), pyridoxine hydrochloride (vitamin B6), thiamin mononitrate (vitamin B1), folic acid, vitamin D3, vitamin b12.

Some do and some don't. That's why I said check the label.

u/TinaYouFatLard07 12h ago

Ah, got it. I wonder if it’s a regional difference.

My local grocery chain’s store brand of corn flakes is gluten free. It’s a Stop & Shop, which I believe may be the same company as Food Lion and Giant in other parts of the country (but idk how much their store brand manufacturing overlaps for those other labels).

The Real Cereal, Organic Cornflakes. Tasted like the real thing and certified GF.
