Snacks? Dairy, Soy, Gluten And Corn Free

I have been Gluten Free for about 10 months and I am looking at going Dairy, Soy and Corn free along with Gluten Free. I was just wondering about snacks other than the plain fruits and veggies that people in my situation snack on. I probably wouldn't even need a snack everyday but once in awhile you just want something. What are you choices if you have taken all four of these out of your diet. Thanks in advance!

I'm thinking along the lines of raw vegan food. I don't know if that appeals to you at all, but they have all sorts of snack bars, crackers, chips etc. that are generally free of the ingredients you mentioned.

Rice crackers might be an option as well. Maybe you could also make crackers out of Chebe bread mix (tapioca).

Yeah, I usually carry some dried fruit and nuts in my bag if I leave the house.

Mango mentioning rice crackers reminded me, I sometimes also have a couple rice cakes with nut butter and honey for a sweet snack. :) And I love white cabbage. But mostly I must say I just eat meals...

As someone just re-entering dairy into my diet, I'm realizing how much easier it is to snack (CHEESE! and yogurt). I'm still soy free.

I also walk a lot (no car, city life, work is a 5-mile walk from home, etc) so I'm realizing how muchmore I need to eat now, including snacks. You can make hummus (or buy, I think) but I hate chick peas. I've made a dip out of cooked lentils and you can probably do it with any bean. Just add your favorite flavors, blend, throw in a container and buy some crackers. The Edward and Sons rice crackers aren't bad. You could also use veggies of course. Or rice cakes.

I eat peanut butter with a lot of things, as others have suggested (fruit, veggies). They do make cheese from Rice Dream that's made (doh!) with rice. It's gluten, dairy, and soy free. It melts, I can say that much for it. It tastes like velveeta, so if that's your thing, you can always snack on that with some crackers.

I'm investigating snack options now and will update you if I find anything good, though dairy's back on my menu, as I mentioned.

Good luck!

Be careful with rice cheeses. Some will say "lactose free" but contain casein.

I like --

hummus or baba ghanouj with acceptable crackers, toast or raw veggies

nut butter on the same

snack bars with no unacceptable ingredients

and of course, there are nuts, dried & fresh fruit, and DARK CHOCOLATE

(I'm not corn free -- so I can also have corn thins [better than rice cakes] and popcorn)

Sometimes I just raid the fridge & have some leftover or other. If I'm really hungry, I will nuke a potato & put some salsa or bean dip on top.

Lara Bars is a brand of nut/fruit bar.

Potato chips are an option, although maybe not the healthiest, very good dipped into hummus.

Raw veggies like baby carrots, bell pepper strips are also very good dipped in hummus.

Also, you can take Food For Life Rice tortillas (there is xanthum gum in them though which is a problem for some people with corn allergies) and cut them in wedges throw in the oven and bake them until they get crisp and brown (homemade rice chips :) and dip them into Amy's Fire Roasted Vegetable Salsa.

Any kind of fresh fruit. There's so many choices during the summer. We grow our own blueberries, strawberries, raspberries and grapes. A handful of those are great snacks.

I also like peanuts in the shell or roasted, light salt cashews.

LARA bars are my favorite 'safe' snack bar, because they're free of most allergens. Unfortunately most flavors contain almonds. So my husband with an almond allergy can only eat the cashew variety.

Apple chips are good. You can also make carrot, eggplant or zucchini chips on a cookie sheet at home. Puffed rice squares, coconut macaroons and nut bars are good sweet snacks that are fast to make.

      We are a couple with celiac trying to find a concierge doctor in Palm Beach Gardens/West Palm/ Jupiter area that has knowledge of celiac .  Help!

      Thank you so much for your validation. I completely agree with you that the crackers COULD be the culprit even with very small trace amounts (less than 20ppm) and accumulating over time - I am at the point where I am about to request that my son gets retested to make sure that my "control subject" is still testing perfectly lol. I have a meeting with my celiac disease doc tomorrow and will run the crackers by him to see if he is willing to retest in a few weeks. I have not had any of them for the past 3 weeks so far, so fingers crossed, we can retest and hopefully find out if it is them. And no - I have been scouring EVERYTHING to make sure nothing else has changed. Only use gluten-free lip products and toothpaste so not there either (but very good suggestion). Thank you for validating me. I feel like many are just saying "you are not being gluten-free enough - but I do have a perfect 16 year track record that proves otherwise - so has to be something sneaky.

      OMG thank you so much for validating me in my "craziness" of being on the hunt for the culprit in my case. "Unfortunately" I do not eat any of the foods you mention, but have stopped eating the crackers that are labeled certified gluten-free to see if they might be the problem. I did NOT know about chicken being injected with gluten liquid - that is horrible!  Hoping my doc will agree to retest after I have been off the crackers for a while. My biggest mystery is - why do I not have ANY symptoms of being cross contaminated or glutened? There is no damage (thank godness) to my villi, and normally I will get canker sores the moment something is even the slightest bit cross contaminated... the hunt continues and I will follow up once I find the answer. Glad you found yours!

      Fascinating, thanks! So Canada (at least in 2017) had changed the criteria for detection in oat products from 20 to 5ppm. If the regulation still stands in 2025 then that would mean that any product sold in Canada that contains oats and is claimed to be gluten-free must (theoretically) test less than 5ppm...

      I recently had same problem and posted on here.  My bloodwork also unexpectedly skyrocketed.  When doc sent online comment saying something like "you need to be eating gluten-free food" I was almost in tears because had been very careful.  Like you, went on a mission.  Narrowed mine down to Yasso yogurt mint chocolate chip bars (formerly had Certified Gluten Free label on package but learned now only on small boxes but not large boxes) or BJ's only mixed nuts without "may be processed on equipment that also processes ....wheat" allergy warning and said in big letters "A GLUTEN FREE FOOD."  I went off both and bloodwork drastically improved.  Still don't know if culprit one or both (will add one back in and test again).  Throwing out in case you're eating either of these.  I live in Pittsburgh and during appointment my gastro told me some U. of Pittsburgh students were having same problem.  They finally narrowed it down to liquid injected into chicken they were eating.  (Apparently to make it moist and/or plump.)  Understand how frustratitng it is when you're making all the sacrifices to be careful.
