Hey, I have a question that I am not sure of the answer to.. how about Doritos All Natural White Nacho Cheese?? The only warning on it is contains milk. no wheat in them anywhere.. I havent had them before and honestly probably wont have them today anyway, but I am just curious.. I know the regular nacho cheese ones, with the orange cheese on them are no no's..

..... Doritos .... I know the regular nacho cheese ones, with the orange cheese on them are no no's..

tbs,

Yesterday we had a family birthday party at a relatives house, the first time I have been in that situation since being gluten-free. The other times were at our house and so I knew exactly what was what. And as we were waiting for the hamburgers and hotdogs to cook, we were munching on a variety of chips. At first I only ate the cheetos, but a few minutes later realized I was eating some kind of cheese ruffles and nacho doritos (yes the ones with wheat flour right on the label).

I guess I was so preoccupied thinking about all the other stuff I wasn't going to eat (hamburger buns, hot dog buns, beans - they were canned, baked beans of some kind, shredded pork barbeque with some seasonings & sauce) that I just forgot what I was doing. I was reluctant to question everything and start digging through my inlaws trash can (although I did surreptitiously look in the pantry, but the trash can was half empty, probably had been taken out already, which meant I'd have to go outside and look in the big container).

Makes for a very different kind of experience, not a very pleasant one. Then, my family had a birthday party last night and I had yet another bunless hamburger. One thing I learned yesterday, hamburger patties tend to be overcooked. That's not much of a problem when on a bun with condiments. But alone, eaten with a knife & fork, suck! At the very least, I must take my own buns/bread next time.

BTW, didn't get sick or anything, but did feel wierd/off for a few hours (physical or mind over matter?).

best regards, lm

p.s., sorry off topic really. This should be under "newbe has dumb attact"!

Thanks for the answers, maybe hubby will get off my back if I buy those for him.. his favorite are the regular nacho cheese doritos, and they arent allowed in my house!

larry, we all do the dumb things once in a while. I have caught myself on many occasion, in la la land and load up a plate with the salads, including pasta salad.. duh!

I have to add, that since no one at the party brought anything crumby.. they all ate my cake from Mr Ritts.. the lemon torte, oh yum.. and I made gluten free pantry brownies and frosted them and put sprinkles on the top ( for my nieces ) all was eaten!

and my mom made her famous mustard sauce for the corned beef, its a sweet/tiny bit spicy and awesome sauce.. all with gluten free flour, everyone ate it, no one knew the difference!! YAY!

On The View's (abc.com) home page lists all the great gluten-free foods they had on their Celiac segment last week. I posted that link on publicity thread about that show. The white nacho cheese Doritos are on that list. I don't do msg anymore so I gave up all Doritos regardless of gluten content.

Do they have Zesty Cheese Doritos in the U.S.? That's the kind we get now. I don't like Doritos much, but to me the Zesty Cheese and Nacho Cheese taste a lot alike. In Canada Zesty Cheese is in an orange bag w/o gluten and Nacho Cheese is in a red bag w/gluten.

      @rei.b,  I understand how frustrating starting a new way of eating can be.  I tried all sorts of gluten-free processed foods and just kept feeling worse.  My health didn't improve until I started the low histamine AIP diet.  It makes a big difference.   Gluten fits into opioid receptors in our bodies.  So, removing gluten can cause withdrawal symptoms and reveals the underlying discomfort.  SIBO can cause digestive symptoms.  SIBO can prevent vitamins from being absorbed by the intestines.  Thiamine insufficiency causes Gastrointestinal Beriberi (bloating, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea or constipation).  Thiamine is the B vitamin that runs out first because it can only be stored for two weeks.  We need more thiamine when we're sick or under emotional stress.  Gastric Beriberi is under recognised by doctors.  An Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test is more accurate than a blood test for thiamine deficiency, but the best way to see if you're low in thiamine is to take it and look for health improvement.  Don't take Thiamine Mononitrate because the body can't utilize it well.  Try Benfotiamine.  Thiamine is water soluble, nontoxic and safe even at high doses.  I thought it was crazy, too, but simple vitamins and minerals are important.  The eight B vitamins work together, so a B Complex, Benfotiamine,  magnesium and Vitamin D really helped get my body to start healing, along with the AIP diet.  Once you heal, you add foods back in, so the AIP diet is worth doing for a few months. I do hope you'll consider the AIP diet and Benfotiamine.

      Imemsm, Most of us have experienced discontinued, not currently available or products that suddenly become seasonal.   My biggest fear about relocating from Maryland to Florida 5 years ago, was being able to find gluten-free foods that fit my restricted diet.  I soon found out that the Win Dixie and Publix supper markets actually has 99% of their gluten-free foods tagged, next to the price.  The gluten-free tags opened up a  lot of foods that aren't actually marked gluten-free by the manufacture.  Now I only need to check for my other dietary restrictions.  Where my son lives in New Hartford, New York there's a Hannaford Supermarket that also has a gluten-free tag next to the price tag.  Hopefully you can locate a Supermarket within a reasonable travel distance that you can learn what foods to check out at a Supermarket close to you.  I have dermatitis herpetiformis too and I'm very sensitive to gluten and the three stores I named were very gluten-free friendly.  Good Luck

      Okay well the info about TTG-A actually makes a lot of sense and I wish the PA had explained that to me. But yes, I would assume I would have intestinal damage from eating a lot of gluten for 32 years while having all these symptoms. As far as avoiding gluten foods - I was definitely not doing that. Bread, pasta, quesadillas (with flour tortillas) and crackers are my 4 favorite foods and I ate at least one of those things multiple times a day e.g. breakfast with eggs and toast, a cheese quesadilla for lunch, and pasta for dinner, and crackers and cheese as a before bed snack. I'm not even kidding.  I'm not really big on sugar, so I don't really do sweets. I don't have any of those conditions.  I am not sure if I have the genes or not. When the geneticist did my genetic testing for EDS this year, I didn't think to ask for him to request the celiac genes so they didn't test for them, unfortunately.  I guess another expectation I had is  that if gluten was the issue, the gluten-free diet would make me feel better, and I'm 3 months in and that hasn't been the case. I am being very careful and reading every label because I didn't want to screw this up and have to do gluten-free for longer than necessary if I end up not having celiac. I'm literally checking everything, even tea and anything else prepacked like caramel dip. Honestly its making me anxious 😅

      So you're saying that you think you should have severe intestinal damage since you've had the symptoms so long?   DGP IgG antibodies are produced in response to a partial gluten molecule.  This is different than what tissue transglutaminase antibodies are  produced in response to.   TTg IgA antibodies are produced in the intestines in response to gluten.  The tTg IgA antibodies attack our own cells because a structural component in our cell membranes resembles a part of gluten.  There's a correlation between the level of intestinal damage with the level of tTg antibodies produced.  You are not producing a high number of tTg IgA antibodies, so your level of tissue damage in your intestines is not very bad.  Be thankful.   There may be reasons why you are not producing a high quantity of tTg IgA antibodies.  Consuming ten grams or more of gluten a day for two weeks to two months before blood tests are done is required to get sufficient antibody production and damage to the intestines.  Some undiagnosed people tend to subconsciously avoid lots of gluten.  Cookies and cakes do not contain as much gluten as artisan breads and thick chewy pizza crust.  Anemia, diabetes and thiamine deficiency can affect IgA antibody production as well.   Do you carry genes for Celiac?  They frequently go along with EDS.

      I was tested for celiac at the same time, so I wasn't taking naltrexone yet. I say that, because I don't. The endoscopy showed some mild inflammation but was inconclusive as to celiac disease. They took several biopsies and that's all that was shown. I was not given a Marsh score.
