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.

Have you tried HardBite plain potato chips? they are made in BC. They are the only ones I can eat and not get sick.

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!

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free...

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a...

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      @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...

I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.

      @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!
