Buying baby cereal, milk free?
« on: November 29, 2012, 04:05:40 am »
Wondering if anyone knows of baby cereals, like rice/oatmeal, that are milk free?  DS2 only has an intolerance so wondering if getting the add your own milk cereals would be ok?
Any thoughts?

Just having a look now... Heinz has an allergen chart online - all of their cereals that are "add your own milk" still contain trace amounts of milk - if DS is intolerant - these won't work...  a milk intolerance that isn't followed will cause intestinal damage.

Found one!!!

I have seen this brand at my local health food store but well.ca does have free shipping ;)

I've had good luck with superstore's PC brand for dairy free baby cereal, but that was quite a few years ago!

Healthy Times that Kara suggested is pretty much the best one. Completely dairy and soy free, plus it is organic :)

Thanks again ladies.  I still haven't made it into the city to check out superstore yet, but I ordered a bunch off well.ca as it was on sale for $3.99 (had to get the free shipping!).  It came in a few days ago and he has had two days of him happily gobbling it up and no issues so far!!

Skadiver - had a hard time finding a supplier for those brands in Canada.  But thanks though!!!

diapers.com doesn't ship to Canada and we can't bring food over the border ;)
