potato chip cross contamination

Trader joe stocks a potato chip simply that is made with potato, olive oil and sea salt but is not stated as gluten-free.. Many chip bags state gluten free but this one does not.  Of interest, I raised the point of cross contamination to my gastro doc and he just waived it off said don't worry about it but being a newly diagnosed celiac {4 months} I am being cautious. So I would like to hear some opinions from fellow celiacs. I admit that I have already eaten one bag of these thinking they were gluten-free and had no reaction that I knew of.

I don’t know what sort of labeling TJs does for gluten free.  In general, if a company labels some products gluten free, then has a product not labeled gluten free, I would be very cautious with that product.

To be safe, it's always best to go for products with at least "gluten-free" on their label, or even better, certified gluten-free.

Thanks I am trying. Boulder is one chip co that states gluten-free on their bags of chips made with olive or avacado oil. Seems that they would no be quite as unhealthy to eat as those made with vegetable oil.

Cape Cod potato chips are gluten-free, according to the company. I've never had a problem with these.

      Gluten Free Cannabis Edibles

      By ShadowLoom · Posted

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!

      Autoimmune diseases tend to cluster. Many of them are found close together on the chromosomes.

      Just giving another update... I was referred to rheumatology, and they suspect that I may also be dealing with fibromyalgia (it has not been formally diagnosed, but just suggested at this point).  So, I am continuing with the anti-inflammatory diet and vitamins and still working to keep getting rid of all these hidden gluten sources, but I also do have another possible explanation for some of the issues that I'm dealing with.
