Kandee, I looked around for a rice krispie recipe that would work for you. The only one I found without marshmallow of some kind had way too much peanut butter, but it did give me an idea! That recipe had you bring 1 cup of karo syrup and 1 cup of sugar to a boil in a saucepan and then stir that into the krispies. That might be something to try if they don't bother you! Otherwise your simple syrup idea might work, too... I guess you'll never know unless you try!

personally, i think its the corn syrup that i cant tolerate, and lately ive noticed that corn starch gets me sick too! but i did find gourmet marshmallows in whole foods. they were really expensive ( like 7 dollars for 6 big ones) but they were soo good!! i hadnt been able to tolerate them in so long so it was a nice treat. i forgot the name i will try to remember but i know they only had natural ingredients, no corn syrup or aritificial stuff. good luck finding ones you can eat- its worth it when you do!

This is great...thanks Allie...........you're like Kree.......you always come thru for us. Little pricey is right!!! But well worth it if you can tolerate them. Plus..........if I get these, I'm sharing them with NOBODY..........well, unless they too have IBS...
Ok, next question..........can you, or anyone, tolerate cotton candy at the fairs? I understand it's spun sugar and that's it..............

I'll bet I could use rice syrup.....it would give it the same kind of body to stick the crisp rice together..........but would have to avoid the peanut butter (it's a thyroid thing) but a few mini-choco chips would be great!!!
Right now I'm ok in the sweets dept. I can't seem to give them up completely so need a little now and then. I just got my Jelly Bellys........and threw the 4 flavors together in a jar....a small handful is like having a dessert. (BTW, those 4 are chocolate pudding, cafe latte, toasted marshmallow and coconut--yum). There is some corn syrup in them and I can't eat many, but a few now and then seems to be ok.
