It is possible to eat a nutritious breakfast including cereal that is gluten free so that your breakfast includes dishes or items from all five-food groups. Glutinous grains include barley, rye and wheat. The fact that oats are considered to have been cross contaminated by glutinous grains and further, that the oat grain is being studied to see whether it causes a reaction in gluten sensitive people makes many people also avoid oats.
