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!

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.
