Are These Items Gluten Free?

the following are some products my daughter has been eating with no problems.

however, a lady we know has celiac and says she should not be eating these products at all.

i dont see anything on the ingredients list, but am i missing something?

kellogs corn flakes

kellogs rice crispies

random brands of hot dogs (we have swapped to only nathans or hebrew national)

any fritos or lays products

bologna

this lady wasnt diagnosed till in her 50's, has dh, diabetic, and several other issues. she has been gluten free 13 years now. i know she is trying to help us.

i just wonder if since lacee isnt having problems with these foods, if maybe our friends information is outdated, or if she is more sensitive than lacee, or if she only eats specialty labeled gluten-free products.

thanks in advance for all your help!!

With the cereals your missing the barley malt. Those two are not cereals we can have. If you do oats make sure they are gluten free oats. The others are heavily cross contaminated. We can have the Chex cereals that are marked gluten free and a couple others.

Your hot dog brands should be okay, I am pretty sure Nathans and HN are both gluten free.

With the fritos and lays products. I am very sensitive. I eat plain Lays chips and Fritos without an issue. Some of us do have problems with the flavored chips, myself included because of cross contamination issues.

There was one variety of Nathan's that used to contain wheat but no longer does. Hebrew National are gluten-free as are Boar's Head. If you want Lays chips that are made on dedicated gluten-free equipment, the STAXX line, all flavors are. Erehwon makes a rice cereal, a plain brown rice Rice Twice and one with dried berries that are gluten-free and labled gluten-free. There are some gluten-free brands of corn flakes. The General Mills Rice Chex and several other varieties of the General Mills Chex cereals are gluten-free and labled gluten-free.

None of those cereals are safe. Chex cereals and Coco, Fruity and Cupcake Pebbles are now safe. BOth of those Kelloggs cereals have gluten in them.

Oscar Mayer beef hot dogs are safe. Not sure on the 2 you mentioned.

Bologna not sure. Hormel Naturals has a lunch meat line that is gluten free.

Frito Lay products that are gluten free are the Lays Stax. They have a bunch of different flavors.

Frito Lay BBQ recently changed their recipe to include wheat, I believe.

Ditto on missing the barley malt on the cereals.

As you know now, the cereals are most definitely out. Any time you see malt you have to assume it's made from barley.

In the U.S., there are currently no hot dogs I know of that have gluten. Bologna is also safe. Frito Lay has a list online of products that do not contain gluten. Some of those could be contaminated, but eating them is up to you.

I was just buying hot dogs yesterday. Nathans hot dogs are good. My issue is finding some reasonably priced that don't have msg added... I am new to this as Taylor was just diagnosed a few weeks ago. I looked at the ingredients of hebrew national and they have modified food starch, then I found out this morning that is supposed to be safe... Is that true?

Yes. Modified food starch is usually corn or tapioca. If it was wheat it would say so. It is never rye, barley or oats.

      Was a biopsy done when you had your gastroscopy? Concerning your anemia, are you B12 deficient? It's nearly impossible to get sufficient B12 if you are a vegetarian unless you take supplements.

Your posting presents a lot of information. But a couple of things I can respond to. One, celiac disease is diagnosed by endoscopy and biopsy of the duodenum. So, pathology will need to weigh in. It's not diagnosed on gastroscopy. (At least, not as far as I know). Two, did you get blood tests for celiac disease? You will need to be eating gluten in order for those to be accurate. Three, where was the CT angiogram (of what)? I could go on and on, but thought I'd start there.

      Hi, I attended a neurologist appt last Tuesday, which I nearly cancelled, due to ongoing numbness and tingling in toes to mid foot. One of the first things he asked was ‘are you celiac’. I’m not. He thought all reflexes were ok but at the last minute decided on nerve conduction tests which were low normal. He was a little confused as he felt they should be better and tried a new set of probs, all the time, giving me multiple shocks which were not enjoyable lol. Anyway, he’s now ordered tests for myeloma, and all the vitaminy things that so many of you mention on here, also tests looking for autoimmune responses. I already have Hashimotos. Interestingly, to me, but maybe someone out there can relate or knows more than i do, although I was a nurse, but ED not ‘weird symptoms’  nurse. Anyway back to the interesting thing, I took duramine in 2013 to lose weight which caused a massive panic attack when I stopped taking it and half my hair fell out. I only took it for a week but it was horrible and I regret it. It triggered ongoing panic attacks which are horrendous. So I feel like I’m a bit crazy. Then in 2020 I had this sudden onset of horrible pain when trying to eat a cinnamon roll. It continued and I lost around 20 kgs. I had two gastroscopes and a colonoscopy and they were all normal. I scored a barium swallow and CT angiogram. All normal. The pain subsided a little but I was left with reflux and an awful feeling that I couldn’t get air when I ate some foods. This was not anxiety.  The anxiety was separate and I still maintain this. This was something to do with eating. It was like the air was thick but I wasn’t short of breath. I just had the sensation I was, then it triggered anxiety. Anyway, I had other weird things- couldn’t bend knees to shave legs in shower lol. Knees felt stiff and swollen but they weren’t. Knee WOUld swell up randomly but mri showed minimal issues. A bit of a meniscus degeneration but insignificant. Then the buzzing sensations in my head, the feeling like someone was stabbing me with something sharp. So now, I pre empted his tests, although I don’t think I’m celiac because it should have come up on gastroscopy, I’ve gone off gluten. Since Tuesday last week so 9 days. Since then I don’t appear to be as constipated, I realised I got through today without a nap and I’m not tired, maybe it’s just today and not related but I get very tired normally and sleep straight after work often, I can bend my knees and shave my legs lol, the buzzing vibrating has gone from my head, I had to call and ambulance as my heart decided we were off on a run, but we weren’t running and I’ve been a bit twitchy at bed time when trying to sleep, reflux is improving, I did get the weird suffocating feeling a bit when eating today but not as bad normall. Tingling and numbness still present and I felt like it moved up my legs a bit today but I’m a bit jittery. So I don’t know if it’s celiac disease or a gluten intolerance but I think, and it may be wishful thinking because my symptoms do make life a bit challenging, but maybe I’m feeling better. I don’t feel as cloudy. My thinking feels crisper. Like there’s no buzzing and I’m not fighting to break through the cloudiness now. I hope so much that this may help me feel a bit better moving forward. It would be a miracle as I really have struggled to work and parent and keep the house clean and I’m always anxious and exhausted.  If you get this far, please tell me if you you can relate to any of the above. Oh and tonsils out 5 years ago but before that antibiotics multiple times a year, sometimes intramuscular because they were so bad.  Op was meant to take 30 mins, it took 1.5 hours due to size of them.
