I bought soem of these. Some of the varieties had wheat in them--but some didnot. I got applecinnamon and caremel I think. We are just starting so go gluten free--so I wouldn't recognize if these hurt us or not. Does anyone else get these?

BTW--the kids LOVED eating "cake" for lunch. Rice cake w/ peanut butter and banana slices :)

Quaker themselves say that they can't guarantee that there isn't contamination - moreover, they say to assume that there is contamination in all of their products. But there are other rice cakes out there! :) I recommend Lundberg Farms.

Quaker has high levels of contamination of wheat so I would stay away from them.

Yeah, Quaker products definitely made me sick. I would stay away from them. Try Lundbergh, I've never had problems with them and they have flavored ones like apple cinnamon. You can buy them online at www.shopbydiet.com.

And then there are some of us who have never had a problem with QUaker Rice Cakes. I have eaten Quaker Caramel Rice Cakes for 5 yrs now and never once was I glutened. So, the decision is yours.

HI I am newly diagnosed with Celiac and its been a crazy frustration to figure out what to eat. I was picking up almond milk about two days ago and happen to find Quaker Rice Cakes ( gluten free) yayy..i read the back of it and nothing click in my head that is gluten. I went ahead and bought them.

I ate about 4 of them in two days. I was doing fine going gluten-free for 2 months and I'm sick I think from Quaker's rice cakes.

I shouldn't have touched them.

I like the lundsberg rice cakes, but have to travel for them. I am sensitive to CC. I m also soy free, if you'll look, some of Quaker has soy in them. I'm on my second package of the "Lightly salted" Quaker rice cakes without problems.

      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.
