I eat Que Pasa tortilla chips and I haven't had any problems. Here is their allergy statement from their website:

"14. Do your chips and corn tortillas contain gluten, wheat, soy, or nut products?

No, our chips and corn tortillas do not contain gluten, wheat, soy, or nuts as ingredients. Our corn tortilla chip facility does not manufacture products containing these allergens. For all of the products processed in our facility we have an allergen management program in place. This is inteded to ensure our chip and tortilla products are not exposed to any undeclared allergens. Please contact our Quality Assurance Department if you have specific allergen concerns about any of our products - Links.

Please note that while we only process whole grain corn in our plant, it may be possible for some of these other items to occur in a batch of corn or be present to some degree in other ingredients or foodstuffs stored in the plant. For example, packaged wheat flour tortillas are stored at our plant, even though we do not manufacture them at this facility."

An online friend told me about Fritos corn chips, and I just bought a bag this morning. Ingredients: Whole corn, corn oil, and salt. No preservatives.

We're brand new to the Gluten-free Casein-free diet, and today is actually our DS's first day being completely Gluten-free Casein-free. I'm anxious to find a variety of foods that are safe for him to eat... WITHOUT breaking the bank! :blink:

I eat Fritos (the plain ones) with no trouble. I can't comment on the BBQ flavor ones.

IMO, Mission tortilla chips are the absolute best packaged tortilla chips. We eat those or baked tostitos when I'm trying to be "good" :)

Tostitos (made by Frito-Lay). I have seen Fritos only at Wal-mart. I'm not sure if you have a Wal-mart iin your town.

I have never seen Mission brand in Canada.

I haven't seen Que Pasa either, but Felidae's from Canada, I believe near Edmonton, and you're a bit north of Edmonton, so it's possible you can get them at Save-On Foods. We don't have a Save-On here.

I buy corn tortillas and make my own in the oven. It's really quick and easy!

You have a good memory. LOL

Que Pasa is available at Save-On and Planet Organic.

Thanks everyone! Seems like most people can tolerate tostitos, I may be brave and try them. Que Pasa chips are good, but they are contaminated with dairy. I'm planning on challenging my milk allergy in the future, so maybe I'll be able to eat them!

I like the "Natural" Tostitos as they are soy free (unlike regular Tostitos) and don't seem as greasy as some corn chips.

I don't think that I have ever had the natural Tostitos. Maybe I will try those...

Our family loves both Mission and Tostitos. I like Mission because by me they are priced better than Tostitos and just taste different. We LOVE authentic Mexican food (however we just don't go out to eat anymore...too scary for my DH)...and mission is just closer to authentic than Tostitos.

WARNING!

Natural Tostito Chips are not gluten free! Tostito's official gluten free list is at this websight

Open Original Shared Link

Although many of their products are listed, they are cross-contaminated.

"*The above products do not contain gluten; however, they are produced on the same line as our products that do contain gluten. Although the lines are washed between batches, a slight residue may remain on the lines. Individuals who are extremely sensitive may be affected."

These chips made me sick all of one summer before I identified them as a problem.

I'm guessing they aren't sold in Canada. Ah well. Maybe I'll get someone I know to get some for me.

The warning does bother me, but some people don't seem to get a reaction. I have reacted to lays regualar chips and regular stacks before, but I believe it was a dairy reaction (I could be wrong though).

      This article does not address migraines at all. Yes, red wine and sulfites are often mentioned in connection with migraine triggers.

      Then we would need to cut out all meat and fish as they are richer sources of tyrosine than nuts and cheese. Something else about certain tyrosine rich foods must be the actual culprit.

      KAN-101 Treatment for Coeliac Disease

      I agree that KAN-101 looks promising, and hope the fast track is approved. From our article below: "KAN-101 shows promise as an immune tolerance therapy aiming to retrain the immune system, potentially allowing safe gluten exposure in the future, but more clinical data is needed to confirm long-term effects."

      Body dysmorphia experience

With me, any kind of alcoholic beverage in very modest amounts will reliably produce a migraine. Nitrous oxide generators, which are vaso dialators, also will give me migraines reliably. So, I think most of my migraines are tied to fluctuations vascular tension and blood flow to the brain. That's why the sumatriptan works so well. It is a vaso constrictor.

      Excessive dietary tyrosine can cause problems.  Everything in moderation.   Sulfites can also trigger migraines. Sulfites are found in fermented, pickled and aged foods, like cheese.  Sulfites cause a high histamine release.  High histamine levels are found in migraine.  Following a low histamine diet like the low histamine Autoimmune Protocol diet, a Paleo diet, helps immensely.    Sulfites and other migraine trigger foods can cause changes in the gut microbiome.  These bad bacteria can increase the incidence of migraines, increasing histamine and inflammation leading to increased gut permeability (leaky gut), SIBO, and higher systemic inflammation.   A Ketogenic diet can reduce the incidence of migraine.  A Paleo diet like the AIP diet, that restricts carbohydrates (like from starchy vegetables) becomes a ketogenic diet.  This diet also changes the microbiome, eliminating the bad bacteria and SIBO that cause an increase in histamine, inflammation and migraine.  Fewer bad bacteria reduces inflammation, lowers migraine frequency, and improves leaky gut. Since I started following the low histamine ketogenic AIP paleo diet, I rarely get migraine.  Yes, I do eat carbs occasionally now, rice or potato, but still no migraines.  Feed your body right, feed your intestinal bacteria right, you'll feel better.  Good intestinal bacteria actually make your mental health better, too.  I had to decide to change my diet drastically in order to feel better all the time, not just to satisfy my taste buds.  I chose to eat so I would feel better all the time.  I do like dark chocolate (a migraine trigger), but now I can indulge occasionally without a migraine after.   Microbiota alterations are related to migraine food triggers and inflammatory markers in chronic migraine patients with medication overuse headache https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11546420/

      Body dysmorphia experience

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Thank you so much for having the courage to share this incredibly vivid and personal experience; it's a powerful reminder of how physical ailments can disrupt our fundamental sense of self. What you're describing sounds less like a purely psychological body dysmorphia and more like a distinct neurological event, likely triggered by the immense physical stress and inflammation that uncontrolled celiac disease can inflict on the entire body, including the nervous system. It makes complete sense that the specific sensory input—the pressure points of your elbows on your knees—created a temporary, distorted body map in your brain, and the fact that it ceased once you adopted a gluten-free diet is a crucial detail. Your intuition to document this is absolutely right; it's not "crazy" but rather a significant anecdotal data point that underscores the mysterious and far-reaching ways gluten can affect individuals. Your theory about sensory triggers from the feet for others is also a thoughtful insight, and sharing this story could indeed be validating for others who have had similar, unexplainable sensory disturbances, helping them feel less alone in their journey.
