They said that the tator tots used to have Gluten, then they changed the ingredients so now they dont have any gluten. They just havent updated the website. But they do have list they can mail you if you like thats more recent. Just give them a call =)

We're on the same wave length, I just called them a few days ago. The woman I spoke with said they can't certifiy they are gluten-free as they are made on machines that produce products w/ wheat.... but the ingredients look safe (I eat them a lot and so far so good). Here's the email I just got from Ore Ida on the Tater Tots

Thank you for visiting our web site.

The ingredients for the Tater Tots are as follows:

Potatoes, Partially hydrogenated Vegetable Oil (Soybean and/or Canola), Salt, Yellow Corn Flour, Onions, Natural Flavoring, Dextrose, Disodium Dihydrogen Pyrophosphate (to retain natural color)

Allergens: Soy

This information can also be found on the package. Always check the packaging for specific ingredients to that package, because recipes can change from time to time..

Thanks again for contacting us. We appreciate your interest.

Yeah, I saw them on a gluten-free list recently, so I was surprised when they weren't on the website...

I've eaten them. They did, however, make me sick, but I don't know if it was gluten or if my body just didn't like the oil in them. Or the potatoes themselves bothered me, who knows anymore :rolleyes:

I seem to do Tater Tots just fine. Unfortunately, the last several times I've had my beloved Smiley Fries I have had "D" within 12 hours. They are gluten-free, I think my system just doesn't process fried things well. Tater Tots don't seem to be as deep fried, but maybe I'm kidding myself?

when I fried them, I got sick.

when I baked them, I was fine...

I find I have trouble with deep fried potatoes of all kinds, but I'm pretty sure it's not gluten related, just too much oil.

It's a shame too, because I just love french fries :( I still eat the gluten free ones every once in awhile, just to remind myself why I don't eat them more often :lol:

Hi Lisa :D I haven't had much time on line lately, really miss talking to you. I sure wish I could keep up with all these posts...I think I need a housekeeper and cook :lol:

It's wonderful that this is such a busy forum, but I think I'd need to spend 12 hours a day on line just to keep track of the threads I like to follow.

How the heck have you been doing anyway? Staying healthy and happy I hope!

I know that this isnt tater totts but I make my own fries at home:

just cut potatoes thinly (any kind my favorite are reds and sometimes sweet!)

sprinkle with a little olive oil

salt and season to your liking ( i love garlic and rosemary on mine)

in the oven for 25-30 mins at 375

they are soo good and cheaper than the flavored ones by alexia, plus you can change the flavors to your mood!

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
