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.

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong.   yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      One doctor suggested it, but then seemed irritated when I asked follow-up questions. Oh well—

      @GlorietaKaro, your respiratory reactions to gluten make me wonder if there might also be an allergic (anaphylaxis) component at work here.
    • GlorietaKaro
      Thanks to both of you for your responses!  Sadly, even after several years of very strict gluten avoidance, I remember the symptoms well enough that I am too frightened to risk a gluten challenge— heartbeat and breathing problems are scary— Scott, thank you for the specific information— I will call around in the new year to see if I can find anyone. In the meantime, I will carry on has I have been— it’s working! Thanks also for the validation— sometimes I just feel crushed by disbelief. Not enough to make me eat gluten though—

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @GlorietaKaro! As Scott indicated, without formal testing for celiac disease, which would require you to have been consuming generous amounts of gluten daily for weeks, it would be not be possible to distinguish whether you have celiac disease or NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). Their symptoms overlap. The difference being that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the lining of the small bowel. We actually no more about celiac disease than we do about NCGS, the mechanism of the latter being more difficult to classify. There are specific antibody tests for celiac disease diagnosis and there is also the endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining. Currently, there are no tests to diagnose NCGS. Celiac disease must first ruled out. Researchers are working on developing testing methods to diagnose celiac disease that do not require a "gluten challenge" which is just out of the question for so many because it poses serious, even life-threatening, health risks. But we aren't there yet.
