Gluten Free Saltines

My daughter's having a craving for saltines. Does anyone know if there are any saltine type crackers that are gluten and dairy free? The only crackers she's tried so far are nut thins and a few different brands of rice crackers and she hated all of them. Thanks!

Glutino or Glutano (can't remember which) makes a cracker that is similar (though not as salty) to a saltine... it's not exact so don't get your hopes up. Then another decent cracker is EnerG's crackers... Hoffner's makes a cracker that is very much like a ritz if you can find them...

we think that enerG crackers taste alot like saltines---minus the salt.

Shar also makes a cracker like a saltine--one of the best gluten-free ones I've had. (I buy a lot of Shar products from the gluten-free pantry.)

I swear by the glutino ones, they come in little packages that i take to lunch and eat with my chicken and rice soup. A warning, they break very easily but it is the only thing that does the trick for me and i now love them to death. Hope this helps, i was once in that boat too!

We've had the Ener-G ones... and I really liked them. However, my gluten-free daughter would not even look at them, much less try them!

I've tried several different ones and I have to say the Schar crackers are the closest thing to a real cracker I've found (although they are pricey).

I like the Glutino ones pretty well but haven't found anything just like a Saltine yet.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SamAlvi! Were there any other antibody tests ordered? Particularly, was there a "total IGA" test ordered to check for IGA deficiency. When people are IGA deficient, celiac panel IGA test scores, such as the TTG-IGA, are likely not valid. If a total IGA test was not ordered, I would request such to be done. Note: "Total IGA" goes by other names as well. I will include a primer on celiac disease antibody testing which does a good job in covering the nomenclature variations connected with the various tests. Elevated IGG scores can certainly indicate celiac disease but they are more likely than elevated IGA tests to be caused by something else.

      Thank you— yes, valid and essential— The issue either doctors is that every one I have tried to talk to about this has essentially rolled their eyes and dismissed me as a hypochondriac, which gets discouraging. I believe a diagnosis would help me to be taken seriously by doctors as well as being validating, but can carry on without it.    There are many, probably most people in my area of my age and gender, who avoid gluten, but many just avoid it casually— eating the occasional plate of wheat pasta or a delicious-looking dessert, or baking cookies with wheat flour for gatherings.  That is not an option for me. I don’t eat other people’s cooking or go to restaurants that do not have strict cross- contamination procedures. It can be boring and lonely, and people do look at me as if I am being a bit dramatic but weeks of symptoms after a single small exposure has taught me to respect my experience.    Thank you very much for your response— sometimes I just need to hear that I am not crazy—

      You’re not crazy—some people have severe neurological and physical reactions to gluten, not just digestive issues. While testing can be tricky without eating gluten, documenting symptoms and seeing a specialist familiar with atypical celiac or gluten-related disorders can help. Your reactions are real, and it’s valid to be cautious.

      You might consider asking for a referral to a RD (Registered Dietician) to help with food choices and planning a diet. Even apart from any gluten issues, you will likely find there are some foods you need to avoid because of the shorter bowel but you may also find that your system may make adjustments over time and that symptoms may improve.
