Tostitoes

Last night i was watching tv, and they showed an commercial for the new tostitoes made with flour. I havent done any reasearch on them yet. But just wanted to see what you all thought about still eating regular tostitoes now that they make a brand with flour. Im wondering if this is why some are getting sick on tostitoes. I am very upset that they decided to make some now with flour when they know so many people in the world cant have gluten.

... and are they making them all in the same facility as their corn ones??

It's probably worth calling the company and finding out if they're made on the same lines or in the same facility or not - if you like tostitos.

It's hard to fault them for adding flour, if those chips do significantly better in taste tests, since 98% (pretty much literally) of their market can have wheat.

I am going to call them when i get the kids off to school, it is much easier to be on the phone with only 2 kids at home then 5 lol.

I know its not their fault if they taste good with flour. Its just that i love tositoes and if they make them on the same lines as the other chips im going to be so heart broken. They are the only chips i have had since going gluten free lol

:( Please post back what they tell you. That is my dd's favorite too. And they help get us through the month when the Glutino pretzels run out.

Well I did call, and they said many of their products are made on the same areas of gluten based prducts, but they do clean them in between products, so there is a chance things can be cross contaimated, but it will be listed on their products.

And they said there is only one plant that is making the flour chips, that is not anywhere by colorado were i live. So i think everyone in different states should call and see if they are by the plant that makes the flour chips.

She did say she will send me a new list of gluten free products in the mail within 7-10 days.

      Thanks Kitty for your guidance. I will do the test to see if I have nutrients deficiencies and at the same time re organize my diet to see if that helps with my vertigo and other symptoms.

      Yes, Vitamin D is frequently low in Celiac Disease and Meniere's both.  Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace test to check for thiamine insufficiency.  Diuretics can cause excess thiamine loss.  Benfotiamine is a form of thiamine that improves intestinal health.  Thiamine in the form TTFD (Tetrahydrofurfuryl Disulfide) helped improve my Meniere's syndrome.

      Kitty, to correct the anemia I got IV iron and B complex for 30 days. Then my next step will be test for nutritional deficiencies.

      Welcome to the forum, @nataliallano, There's a dozen or so vitamins and about as many minerals that our bodies need to live and thrive.  Our vitamins and minerals can become depleted in Celiac Disease due to malabsorption and inflammation, so we need to eat a nutritionally dense diet, and keep inflammation to a minimum.

      No, not if you've got an official diagnosis already.   Let's continue our conversation on this thread... Thanks
