I’m sorry to report that Kellogg’s Gluten Free Rice Krispies have been discontinued in the United States.
As I heard the news, I headed over to the Rice Krispies website. To verify this information for yourself, just click here [page no longer exists]. Then search for “gluten free rice krispies discontinued”. You will discover the below message:
We are sorry to announce that Kellogg’s Rice Krispies Gluten-Free cereal has been discontinued. We made the difficult decision to stop making Gluten Free Rice Krispies due to disappointing sales and manufacturing constraints.
Certainly, we realize many fans will be understandably disappointed by this announcement. Although it may be difficult to replace Gluten Free Rice Krispies, we invite you to enjoy our other great Kellogg’s Gluten Free Products.
For substitutes, consider Nature’s Path Crispy Rice Cereal. In addition, check out the Gluten Free Coco Crispie Cereal made by Attunes. have a version of Cocoa Krispies!
I read on another blog that Kellogg’s Gluten Free Rice Krispies will not be discontinued in Canada.
Boo Kellogg’s! I just heard about the gf rice krispies recently, but couldn’t find any near us. I guess this is the reason I couldn’t find them. I don’t understand why you need to have the barley malt added to the regular rice krispies to begin with. As a mom of two children with Celiac, this is very disappointing. :(
WTH?! FINALLY THEY CATCH ON AND PRODUCE A PRODUCT THAT SHOULD BE GF ANYWAY, THEY ARE RICE, WHICH IS NATURALLY GF, WHY MUST YOU ADD MALT BARLEY?! REGARDLESS, THANKS FOR THE VERY DISAPPOINTING NEWS!! I BOUGHT THEM ON A WEEKLY BASIS. SINCE HAVING TO EAT GF IT HAS BEEN TOUGH TO FIND MUCH VARIETY AND OLDIE BUT GOODIES, THESES MADE ME SMILE, KELLOGG’S, YOU STINK!!!!
why not just have gluten free Rice Krispies, there is no difference in taste. Then there will be big sales, everybody will buy. Things should be getting better for people with celiac, not worse.
i am no longer a child, and need to eat more consciously now. The problem for me with their GF Rice Krispies was the lack of nutrition. Hence, the lower sales. If I want them, I will buy a GF brand that is there for us.
NOOOOOO! These made the BEST EVER Rice Krispie Treats!!! Our “non-gluten free” friends always ask why ours are better than theirs?! The one and only treat celiacs had the upper hand on!!!
