What Mainstream Snack Foods Are Gluten And Dairy Free

I've been on a really strict elimination type diet for most of the year and I'm starting to expand what I'm eating... I haven't really looked into what is gluten free and what isn't in terms of mainstream products so I was hoping for some suggestions for snacks and different foods (ie. chips, fries, cookies, canned foods, microwave and freezer foods, etc.)

I also need them to be soy free and egg free but I can check on that if you don't know...

I eat Back to Nature Sesame Ginger rice crackers and Kettle baked slightly salted potato chips (yellow bag).

Publix carries the crackers and occasionally has the chips. I am working on getting my Publix to carry them all the time.

That's it for me as far as main steam. :) Marcia

Ruffles, I like the Natural Ones in the health food section, but regular ones are fine, too.

Lara Bars, Clif Nectar Bars (be sure they're Nectar, the others aren't gluten-free), Bumblebars --I find Lara and Nectar at Kroger, but Bumblebars at Wild Oats.

Chips (many brands) & salsa

I don't buy things pre-made, but it's easy to make things and freeze or store them in portions for grab and go. In addition to baked goods (like bars, muffins, cookies), what about trail mix / "chex" type mixes? popcorn? homemade jello cups (or the store bought ones, but if you are elimating, i would think you are going for more natural options)... you can make them with juice and gelatin. applesauce/fruit sauces (if you make it and let it simmer all day, you'll have a wonderful smelling kitchen! chocolate bars, dried fruits/vegetables...

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
