Letter Writing Week: Letter #3

I intended to write up two letters yesterday to catch up, but work just got too busy and I couldn’t make the time to do it. So I plan to do one today, one tomorrow (Friday) and then my fifth and final letter which will be the best of the bunch on Saturday. I’ve already written up the finale, it’s epic. I am actually going to print it and snail mail it tomorrow.

I didn’t want every letter I send out this week to be an angry one that was voicing disappointment, so todays will be positive. This one is actually a second I am sending in. The first was a complaint and now I am sending a letter in to thank them for listening and acting on my previous letter.

So without further adue, here is the recipient of my next letter:

Letter #3: Kelloggs

To whom it may concern:

Over two years ago, I wrote a letter to your company asking for Kelloggs to offer a product that was gluten free. Products such as Corn Pops and Rice Crispies were not gluten free because they contained Malt which resulted in the food being placed on the black list for people who cannot consume wheat products. In my previous letter I asked Kelloggs to not remove the malt from their existing products but to instead offer a gluten free product so that my youngest son, Jonathan, who is on a gluten free diet could enjoy his favorite kellogg brands again.

Last week, I had the pleasure of purchasing a box of Gluten Free Rice Krispies, which my son in turn has been enjoyed a great deal ever since. My mother who is Celiac also is happy to be able to bring your product back into her routine and we both like the idea that we can make Rice Krispie squares that everyone can enjoy.

So on behalf of my family, I would like to express our heartfelt thanks for listening to our concerns and responding to them in kind. I hope that this is just the beginning as the gluten free market is definitely one that Kelloggs should continue expanding into (hint: Corn Pops).

Once again thank you for making the effort and for making a Rice Krispies cereal that all members of my family could enjoy together.

Sincerely,

Peter
