Carrie,

I'm in Canada also and have noticed the same thing. Ever since I read the first few posts here about the Staxx saying gluten-free on the label I've checked and have never seen that. Also, the plain Staxx seem to have a long list of ingredients, but the regular (classic or plain wavy) chips just have "specially selected potatoes", salt and oil of some kind that I can't remember.

(And you can't stack them, either.)

Now I'm very confused. When I called Frito-Lay they told me not to use any of their products because of possible CC issues...... I wonder if maybe the regular machines could be in close proximity to the gluten-free lines and there could be a problem there, due to the non-gluten-free flavorings on some of their products. Maybe they are dusted on on something like that?

I have eaten the chips on the gluten free list with no problem. I'm in Canada too and have not seen Lays Staxx labelled as gluten free. I think it is only labelled that way in the US. I have never tried the Staxx kind.

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... <_<

Sorry Im from Canada I guess the ingredients are different. :unsure:

Are you from Canada? I'm also wondering if the machines are close together.

Those of you in Canada, it would probably be a good idea to find out directly from the company if there is a difference. If there is, that would be a good thing to know.

Wow Kimberly: You have a westie? You have no idea how much I want one! :D

Yes, I have a Westie. She will be a year old next week. :) IF you want a Westie, just know that they are very active dogs!!! AND, they have a mind of their own. She is very smart and good, but if she decides to do something, telling her "no!" has very little effect!! Ha! If you are anywhere near Nebraska, I got her from a breeder here... good dogs for not such a big price!! :)

Sorry to continue the off-topic thing but I just had to agree with what Kimberly said. Her description is right on. They are wonderful, wonderful dogs, very intelligent, but definitely have a mind of their own, lol. I've owned two and both flunked two obedience courses (okay, I flunked, lol). I will someday get another for sure!

I would say that eating lays chips is a personal decision. Some people react to them and others do not react to them. I would however recommend eating the lays chips that are on dedicated lines. I would contact the company to confirm which chips are on the dedicated lines.

      Inconclusive results

      By deanna1ynne · Posted

      Thank you both very much. I’m pretty familiar with the various tests, and my older two girls with official dxs have even participated in research on other tests as well. I just felt overwhelmed and shocked that these recent results (which I found pretty dang conclusive after having scott clean labs just six months ago) would still be considered inconclusive. Doc said we could biopsy in another six weeks because my daughter was actually way more upset than I anticipated about the idea of eating it for years before doing another biopsy. It doesn’t hurt her, but she’s afraid of how it may be hurting her in ways she can’t feel. She’s currently eating mini wheats for breakfast, a sandwich with lunch, and a side of pasta along with every dinner, so I’m hoping we’re meeting that 10g benchmark mentioned in that second article!

      Potential celiac need advice

      Have you tried a genetic test to look for Celiac genes?  No gluten challenge required.

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hello, @ElisaAllergiesgluten, Have you tried going on a low histamine Paleo diet like the Autoimmune Protocol diet?  A low histamine AIP diet would help your body rid itself of the extra histamine it's making in response to allergies.  Are you Celiac as well?   Since we need more thiamine when we're stressed, adding Benfotiamine, a form of Thiamine Vitamin B 1, can help the body calm down it's release of histamine.  Benfotiamine improves Sailors' asthma.

      Toothpaste question.

      By RDLiberty · Posted

      So, I've been using a gluten free labeled toothpaste since being diagnosed with celiac. No big deal, the toothpaste seems to work. Question is, I just realized it contains hydrated silica.  Now, I've heard that silicon dioxide can cause issues in some people with celiac (was that ever confirmed though?), so to be safe, I cut it out of my diet entirely. But, as I understand it, hydrated silica is related to silicon dioxide. Is that something to worry about, or is the hydrated form not known to cause issues like the silicon dioxide form?  I've never seen it in food, but nearly every toothpaste I look at contains hydrated silica?  Issue or not?  Any scientific research (Not opinion pieces, not health bloggers, you get my gist), but actual science, that says it's an issue? I have a hard time believing 99% of what I read on random internet searches.    Thanks so much, Renee.
