Tater Tots And Smiley Fries


StrongerToday

Recommended Posts

Thanks to my food log, I can look back and see that the last few times I've had Tater Tots or Smiley Fries I seem to have an "epsiode" the next day or so. Which is a shame, they are tasty and one of the few "convenience" foods I have.

Does anyone else seem to have a problem with them? Is it just that's it's processed?

Shame too - I've been doing great lately and of course don't want to take one more thing away... esp. an easy food.

Ev--I eat the McCain's smily fries with no problem at all. I have not had tater tots, but Ore Ida hash browns, I believe, affected me. I stick to the McCains--any of their "blue bag" products have been fine for me. I always read the labels to make sure when trying a different one--and their customer service is very nice and helpful.

What kind of tater tots are you having?

Ore-Ida makes tater tots, and the ingredients list doesn't suggest anything bad in it, however they do not appear on their official gluten free list so I have always avoided them.

If you are near a Giant Eagle, I eat their tater tots all the time and haven't had a problem...yet!

The only other thing that I seem to have around the same time is a fruit smoothie (strawberry and bannana) made with almond milk. Last time at the store the Pacific Vanilla flavor was on sale, usually I use Blue Diamond plain almond milk. Hmmm....

I hate that the only way to test a food is to eat it and make plans to be near a bathroom :rolleyes:

I've tried Ore Ida oven bake fries and gotten sick 2x....ingredient list looked fine - but no luck.

Moving on to try McCains.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
    • Scott Adams
      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.
    • Scott Adams
      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.    
    • Scott Adams
      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
