Super Mainstream gluten-free Snacks


africanqueen99

Recommended Posts

africanqueen99 Contributor

I'm looking to put together a list for Girl Scouts, soccer parents, etc of the absolute most mainstream gluten-free snacks that my kids can eat.  We are talking about the people that usually throw individual cheeze-it bags and capri-suns on the table for the kids.

 

Help me brainstorm!

* Individually wrapped string cheese

* Individually tubed yogurt (go-gurt and the like)

* Go-go Squeeze applesauce

* Fruit - apples, strawberries, grapes, etc (washed but not cut)

* Pirate's Booty

 

And, yes, I will keep back-up snacks in my purse in case I need to switch something out at the last minute...

These are US lists

GottaSki Mentor

Bananas

Cheetos (and other individual bags of chips - not healthful, but no gluten)

Fourmonkeysjumping Rookie

Veggie straws, puffed goldfish (or whatever th are called), smartfood, Chex.

My sons scout troops always seems to buy one if those huge boxes of frito lay bags, so he can eat several if those. Not the healthiest option, by far, but easily accessible.

Add...

Ice Pops (most)

Goldfish Puffs

Cheetos

Fritos

most potato chips (not pringles)

Tostitos (not all tortilla chips are ok)

Hershey Bars

M&ms

Reeses (except seasonal shapes)

Celtic Queen Explorer

Be careful on the m&ms.  The regular and peanut ones are gluten-free, but the pretzel ones aren't (obviously) and I noticed that the candy corn ones aren't gluten-free either.  Might want to stick to the old fashioned brown and yellow bags.

 

Skittle and Starburst are also gluten-free.

mommida Enthusiast

individual hummus cups

fruity pebbles cereal bars

fruit by the foot

gushers

chocolate covered raisins

nature valley peanut butter, dark chocolate protein bars 

most Jell-O pudding cups or gel cups, Kozy Shack, and same with the Snack pack non refridgerated puddings

fruit cups (peaches, mixed fruit cocktail)

lunch meat (Boar's Head) cheese slices for roll-ups

Amy's frozen burritos (read the labels for the gluten free ones)

There are plenty of kids allergic to nuts so perhaps keep that in mind when going to play dates!

      Let me hasten to add that if you will be undergoing an endoscopy/biopsy, it is critical that you do not begin efforts to reduce gluten beforehand. Doing so will render the results invalid as it will allow the small bowel lining to heal and, therefore, obscure the damage done by celiac disease which is what the biopsy is looking for.

      That’s a really tough situation. A few key points: as mentioned, a gluten challenge does require daily gluten for several weeks to make blood tests meaningful, but negative tests after limited exposure aren’t reliable. Dermatitis herpetiformis can also be tricky to diagnose unless the biopsy is taken from normal-looking skin next to a lesion. Some people with celiac or DH don’t react every time they’re exposed, so lack of symptoms doesn’t rule it out. Given your history and family cancer risk, this is something I’d strongly discuss with a celiac-experienced gastroenterologist or dermatologist before attempting a challenge on your own, so risks and benefits are clearly weighed.

      https://celiac.org/glutenexposuremarkers/    yes, two hours after accidents ingesting gluten I am vomiting and then diarrhea- then exhaustion and a headache. see the article above- There is research that shows our reactions.

      Concerning the EMA positive result, the EMA was the original blood test developed to detect celiac disease and has largely been replaced by the tTG-IGA which has a similar reliability confidence but is much less expensive to run. Yes, a positive EMA is very strong evidence of celiac disease but not foolproof. In the UK, a tTG-IGA score that is 10x normal or greater will often result in foregoing the endoscopy/biopsy. Weaker positives on the tTG-IGA still trigger the endoscopy/biopsy. That protocol is being considered in the US but is not yet in place.
