Old Dutch Chips

Sorry for all the questions lately, but I am in a new place with new food to try! I've seen a lot of old dutch chips around here and I wondered if anyone has had problems with them. I saw that they have gluten-free list on their website, but I'm not sure if they share lines with gluten foods like lays.

Also, does anyone know if there is dairy contamination with these chips?

I haven't tried them yet because I am afraid of a reaction.

But, I just ate a large bag of Lays Natural plain potato chips this weekend with no troubles at all. I react to Lays Stax, so I was very pleased to find out that I do not react to the Natural product line. I am very sensitive too.

Felidae--I love the Lay's Natural line, too! I react very easily, and have had no problems with them. I have reacted to the Stax, though, for some reason. Think it might be dairy CC.

Carrie--You could never ask too many questions! I've never heard of those chips, maybe they're not available here--or ay least in NJ. Hope the rest of the move is going smoothly :)

Actually, I only tried them because I read one of your posts saying that you could eat them. LOL

Old Dutch is a Canadian brand.

Yes, I have had problems with Old Dutch. Try "Hardbite" It's made in BC and they don't have gluten in the factory. A few of the bigger stores carry them, like "Save on Foods"

You might want to try their web site to see if there is dairy in it, but I don't think there is. I love the plain ones, I haven't tried the flavoured ones as I'm not a fan on flavoured chips.

Carrie, there aren't any Save-On-Foods in NW Calgary, but there might be one in the SW, can't remember where, or I think Extra Foods might be part of the Pattison empire. I've never seen Hardbite at Safeway.

The website is www.homegrownfoods.com and it lists the Calgary stores where they are sold.

Thanks everyone! I just found out that you can buy hardbite at Sobey's and Co-op in Calgary. I will have to try some :)

That's funny, I don't remember that, but I may have just looked old dutch up on the internet and saw that some flavours are gluten-free. I haven't tried them yet because I am afraid of cross contamination.

I haven't tried them yet, but I would like to try them. I haven't been able to find them here yet in Calgary. I think the co-op may have them though.

I tried the Old Dutch corn chips. The Old Dutch Web site say that they are gluten-free. I'll let everyone know if I suspect a reaction. So far so good.

No, this was in response to someone else who tried Lays Naturals. Sorry for the confusion. I haven't tried Old Dutch.

There are gluten-free tortilla chips called Que Pasa. Canadian made and their website says gluten-free, but I'm not sure about dairy cc.

Ok, I had a weird sleep last last, I felt werid today, I had a chicken pox like spot on my leg, and my leg was itchy where it usually is when I get into gluten, which tells me that I had some gluten. Those two things are enough for me to guess that the old dutch chips are contaminated. The amount of gluten in their chips must be quite small because I didn't get a severe reaction. Regardless, I won't be eating anymore of their chips.

I will look into the Que Pasa chips. I really want safe chips to eat!

      There is not enough information to assess the likelihood of coeliac disease. You'll have to chase this up with the quack. The lab should provide antibody titres and a reference range. They might just have done an EMA test, which is negative/positive and antiquated - a proper IgA-ttG2 test would be more helpful.

      What would a diagnosis tell me?

      Blood tests for vitamin deficiencies are not an accurate measurement of vitamin stores within cells where the vitamins are actually utilized. The brain will order cells in tissues and organs to put their stored vitamins into the blood stream to supply the brain and heart. Deficiency symptoms can appear before there's a change in blood levels. The...

      What would a diagnosis tell me?

      Yes that's why I'm holding off on getting tested until after the summer so no Russian roulette bathroom escapades then I will reintroduce and get tested. The vitamins aren't a supplement they are frozen fruits and vegetables that you blend with water so it's natural fruit and veggies that I have used for 5 years daily. I don't take supplements I did full...

      What would a diagnosis tell me?

      Ten grams of gluten per day for two weeks or longer is needed to get antibody levels up high enough so that they can be measured in the blood stream and intestinal damage can be seen in the small intestines. HOWEVER, only THREE grams if gluten is needed to produce symptoms...like running to the bathroom. Some people have much worse symptoms after...

      Blood tests for vitamin deficiencies are not an accurate measurement of vitamin stores within cells where the vitamins are actually utilized.  The brain will order cells in tissues and organs to put their stored vitamins into the blood stream to supply the brain and heart.  Deficiency symptoms can appear before there's a change in blood levels.   The eight B vitamins are water soluble.  That means they can get flushed out of your system easily with that Russian Roulette Running.  Some vitamin deficiencies have gastrointestinal symptoms that mimic Celiac Disease.  Thiamine deficiency has gastrointestinal symptoms including diarrhea.  Vitamin C is also water soluble with gastrointestinal symptoms like diarrhea when deficient.  Symptoms of a deficiency in Niacin B3 include diarrhea, and a blistering reaction to sunlight.  Have a nice vacation and keep us posted on your progress when you get back! P.S. There's not a difference between being glutened and being cross contaminated.  You'll get your usual symptoms.  The digestive tract has a limited vocabulary.

Enjoy your vacation!
