Lays Barbq Stax-really Gf?

[sonjaf]

Has anyone else had problems with the BarBQ version of Lays Stax? They say "gluten-free" on the package, and I know that many of you had recommended them, but everytime I have eaten them, I seem to have problems. Are they really gluten-free? Is anyone else having issues? I know that the pizza ones are not gluten-free-- just wondering.

Tired of glutening myself!!!!!!

ALL of the STAXX are gluten free...just some do not say naturally free of gluten on them. They are made on dedicated gluten free lines according to many people I have talked to so if you have a problem with them it is not gluten related.

[bluelotus]

Yes, just received something in the mail from them stating they are made on gluten-free lines. However, I can't eat them b/c of corn oil. Have you considered other food intolerances/allergies? Or maybe it is something you routinely eat with the chips - like diet soda??

[VydorScope]

As stated above, all staxx are gluten-free and on gluten-free lines, however ppl with dairy issues aways seem to have trouble with them. Do you have anyother interences , such as casin or latose?

[swittenauer]

My husband loves those & hasn't gotten sick eating them. It is our go to snack.

Thanks for the responses. It may be that something else got to me. I was just suspicious and wanted to make sure.

Are you sure that the pizza flavor is gluten free? It does not say it is, and I had heard that it wasn't. I haven't tried them, but my husband did (he doesn't have celiac disease) and he didn't like them much. I am the chip-aholic in the family.

Yes, all of them are gluten free and made on dedicated lines. However, not all of them say "naturally free of gluten" on the side. It would be nice if they did that on all of them but they do not..they are all safe though.

[VydorScope]

Just to back up Kati, Lays states that the entire staxx line, all flavors is gluten-free and made on gluten-free dedicated lines. We uses them as a toddler snack in my house, but my toddler likes the plain flavor best so we dont realy by the other flavors.

[Carriefaith]

If you are intolerant to dairy products then you would probably react to them. I get sick when I eat plain lays chips and I believe it is dairy contamination from the lines.

[terri]

I just went on the website and got their list. I also just called them and they said all their gluten free items are made on dedicated lines. The Stax are made in a separate facility but the others share a facility with gluten items but they keep them separate and do their best to avoid cross contamination. Those dedicated lines are never used for their chips with gluten. Here is their gluten free list:
