Lays Chips

[lizzy]

hi i was wondering if anyone ate lays chips i know on the celtic gluten free list they say they are gluten free thats the plain and salt and vinagar but are made on lines used to make the gluten ones, as anyone ate them safely ? also on the lays stackers ( the ones like pingles) also says on the tube gluten free , again as anyone tried them.? the reason i ask is that last night when i was sat in front of the tv the show i was watching a guy was munching on some chips and i thought i havent eaten them in sooo long and fanced some , i even left the house at 8 pm to go get some but the on my way i started to question the saftey of them and by the time i got to the shop i had talked myself out of them until i had a better understanding of the saftey of them. any one know?? thanks liz

I eat the Lays stacks with no problems! They are good! Enjoy!

The lays stax are gluten free and they are made on dedicated gluten free lines. If you have multiple food allergies than you may have to becareful because they do contain milk and soy. The plain ones only contain soy. Enjoy.

I eat the Natural Thick Cut and the Natural Reduced Fat Ruffles. Both are great and I have had no problems.

[carriecraig]

I eat Lays Staxx and their other chips without any problems. They even have a new line out - kettle cooked which I got at Target, and are yummy!

[Guest gfinnebraska]

Eat away and enjoy!!! The Lays Stax are SO good!!! I can't open a can without eating them all!!! The pizza flavored and ranch flavored are really good! Yummy!!! Ut-oh... I had better stop or I will be buying some on my lunch!

Kettle cooked Lays are so good, I'm sorry my daughter even GAVE them to me!! Now I have to stay away cause I'm trying to lose weight... (I didn't get the weight loss symptom of celiac disease...)

[VegasCeliacBuckeye]

Ruffles and Lays Stax are the bomb!!!

I love the Cheddar Lays Stax!!

[lizzy]

I've been wanting to try those--and I didn't get the weight loss type, either!

For what its worth, I have had some issues with Lay's regular chips

The Staxx and Ruffles are fine, but reguilar lays (and other flavors) have bothered me before...

the regular chips are on on gluten-free lines, the staxx are, so you probably got some CC issue with the regular.

[kabowman]

Lays Natural Thick Cut Sea Salt chips are the only ones I consistantly do NOT have problems with...even their natural ruffles bother me but boy, do I eat those Natural Sea Salt ones!!!!

[MySuicidalTurtle]

I get sick from Lays chips that aren't made on a dedicated line.

[Carriefaith]

Lays chips have made me sick in the past. The ones that made me sick were on dedicated lines. I'm guessing that the reactions that I had from the chips were from dairy contamination, but I really have no idea. I just avoid them altogether.

[Felidae]

I can only eat the Lays Staxx without any problems.

This address at frito lay tells me that the only flavor of stax that is safe is the original. It also tells me that the lines that they are processed on are only washed after gluten products are processed on them and that they may still have gluten residue on them. They are not Gluten free dedicated lines. Becareful of the information that is being shared on this board. I have been getting sick from eating the sourcream and onion stax. I believed that they were all safe because of the info that was shared here.

[Guest nini]

That list is the one for gluten AND casein free... there is a separate list for gluten free only... and all of the Staxx ARE gluten free and on a dedicated line. The flavors besides original do have dairy in them however so if you are sensitive to dairy then stay clear of them.

Do the Ask Kelly thingy on fritolay.com and just type in gluten free... it should bring up the page for just the gluten free items... the link that you showed is the one for gluten AND casein free.

[Guest nini]

and it does specifically say that All Lays Stax are made on a dedicated line and all Lays Stax ARE Gluten free... so this information IS accurate. I just can't get my browser to do copy and paste today...

It does say their products are made on the same line as wheat products and washed in between, so it isnt' a dedicated line. I don't think they have made me sick. Anyone been sick from them?

I almost wonder if the lays chips in Canada are produced differently than in the US. Does anyone know? I got quite ill from eating regular lays STAX. Also, a number of people on this site have said that they see "naturally free of gluten" on the containers. I have never seen a container of lays that says that and I've looked at quite a few stores.
