Thanks to my food log, I can look back and see that the last few times I've had Tater Tots or Smiley Fries I seem to have an "epsiode" the next day or so. Which is a shame, they are tasty and one of the few "convenience" foods I have.

Does anyone else seem to have a problem with them? Is it just that's it's processed?

Shame too - I've been doing great lately and of course don't want to take one more thing away... esp. an easy food.

Ev--I eat the McCain's smily fries with no problem at all. I have not had tater tots, but Ore Ida hash browns, I believe, affected me. I stick to the McCains--any of their "blue bag" products have been fine for me. I always read the labels to make sure when trying a different one--and their customer service is very nice and helpful.

What kind of tater tots are you having?

Ore-Ida makes tater tots, and the ingredients list doesn't suggest anything bad in it, however they do not appear on their official gluten free list so I have always avoided them.

If you are near a Giant Eagle, I eat their tater tots all the time and haven't had a problem...yet!

The only other thing that I seem to have around the same time is a fruit smoothie (strawberry and bannana) made with almond milk. Last time at the store the Pacific Vanilla flavor was on sale, usually I use Blue Diamond plain almond milk. Hmmm....

I hate that the only way to test a food is to eat it and make plans to be near a bathroom

I've tried Ore Ida oven bake fries and gotten sick 2x....ingredient list looked fine - but no luck.
Moving on to try McCains.
