Were they totally corn? Did it have sauce with it? Did you use any other type of Sauce?

They were corn, but it had taco seasoning with it along with salsa! I used them both...

Good possibilities that the salsa or the seasoning had gluten in it, I would give them a call tomorrow and ask them. Make sure you ask them if they are made in a facility that produces wheat products.

are you newly diagnosed? if so, you might still be healing (and it could have been gluten free).

hope you feel better :)

Thank you so much, i still feel sick today! And it was at supper last night i ate them.

I was just diagnosed a month ago or so! Has anyone eaten this product without problems?

We use Old El Paso hard (corn) taco shells and the seasoning packet (powder, add water and ground beef) all the time. The company (Gen Mills?) said they always clearly label gluten as wheat, rye, oats, barley/malt. Were they soft tacos? If so, there's your answer. I don't think Old El Paso makes soft tortillas that aren't flour. Not sure about the salsa sauce, we use a different brand.

I use the Old El Paso hard taco shells. For salsa I prefer Pace, which is gluten-free. I make my own seasonings though instead of using packaged.

I use the hard shell corn taco's too, but not the seasoning. I don't know about that part.

I use the hard shells but not the seasoning and salsa. I make my own that way I save myself any pain.

      Be sure to be eating gluten daily until all of your celiac disease tests are completed (at least 2 slices worth of wheat bread per day for at least 6-8 weeks before any blood tests, and 2 weeks before an endoscopy).

      @maylynn, No, I took over the counter thiamine supplements, thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide).  My doctors were not very knowledgeable about nutrition and vitamins, and they missed my symptoms being connected to vitamin deficiencies.  I studied nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I wanted to know what vitamins were doing inside the body.  My doctors just prescribed pharmaceuticals to cover the symptoms of poor health due to malabsorption of nutrients. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, physically active, emotionally stressed and work outside in hot weather.  Thiamine works...

      @knitty kitty Did they give you medication for the Thiamine? I have never heard of that and have never related to symptoms more. My energy is always SO low. Zero drive to get anything done or work out. I used to love being on the go and being active. I am heading to the doctor next week so I will make sure to bring this up! Thank you so much!

      @trents I have had another scope done since being diagnosed. The only thing they told me at that time was my body seems to be healing very well and to continue what I was doing. At that time, I had only been diagnosed 2 years so it may be a possibility that it was healing then but not now maybe. I think you're right that it's about time one was done! I will be bringing that up to my doctor at my apt. next week. Thank you for the suggestions with food. I have tried diary so far. Seems to not be the issue (luckily!). Will have to try the others!

      Thank you so much for the advice, Scott. I am going back to the doctors next week to get more blood work done. The only thing they recommended me to take so far has been two shots of liquid iron in the morning to keep my iron levels high. What supplements or vitamins have worked for you? I never physically feel my celiac symptoms, unless I got cross contamination which I feel has only happened a handful of times in the last four years. When I eat it feels so different than my celiac. Which makes me wonder if it is another food like you suggested. Has anyone ever had issues with meat? I feel like I can snack and snack until it is a full meal, usually including meat. Could that be an allergy or...
