Warning Lundberg Bbq Rice Chips!

Please, please, please respond if you have had a bad reaction to Lundberg's BBQ Rice Chips, or any of Lundberg's Rice Chips. There are a number of people using this forum of have complained they felt ill after eating them.

It's important that we figure out if there is a problem, and address it with Lundberg's.

FYI, all of Lundberg's products are processed in their facility, EXCEPT the Lundberg Rice Chips which are processed by a different company in a different facility. You guessed it, that facility also processes wheat on the SAME equipment which is "washed down" afterwards.

In my opinion, they're not safe. I had a reaction to them immediately and it was the only thing I had eaten, so I'm sure it was the chips. Not BBQ, though, but rice. I won't eat Lundberg again.

Oh no . . . . . . I eat Lundberg chips all the time. Since I don't have GI celiac, the only way to know if I've been "glutened" is either 1) through bloodwork or 2) more neurological damage.

My cranial reflexes are now GONE -- not only is it dangerous because they're protective, but it is indicative of a HUGE neurological problem. I just found that out when I went to the neurosurgeon. My eyes also have increased neurological trouble -- I found that out three weeks ago at the neuro-opthmalogist.

I HATE when companies do stuff like this. Why would they put people at risk like that? I am LIVID. I am also calling them tomorrow and addressing this with them.

Thank you for the information.

I eat them and don't react at all.

YES!! I react badly to the Lundberg BBQ rice chips (and possibly the other flavors, but I KNOW the BBQ chips are bad news). I have yet to get sick from the plain Sea Salt chips and continue to eat those without problems.

Things like this really upset me. They can process food on shared equipment with wheat, just don't lie and put "GLUTEN FREE" in the corner of the product without testing.

I have gotten sick everytime I have eaten the BBQ chips. I steer clear of all their products now -- too risky.

I eat their honey mustard ones with no problems!!!

It makes me wonder if it's something in the BBQ flavoring -- either that or do they use the chips from the first run for BBQ???

I react to them also. I am another one who is a bit more than annoyed with these companies. They are fully well aware of CC issues but heck if they put that on the bag they won't sell as much of their product. I always make it a practice now on the rare times I eat anything labeled gluten-free to look and see if they make other poison products also. If the company does I pass, I have to, I don't want to but it takes weeks for me to recover from a glutening. I would love to be able to eat processed mainstream foods but unfortunately I found it is like playing with a firecracker. I never know if when the food leaves the hand if it will blow up my gut.

I've just recently been eating them and due to other food sensitivities, eating only the Sea Salt ones. I bought a new bag and brought it to work with me today. I had about 5 or 6 while working and starting to develop a stomach ache. Since this is all I've eaten for the past couple hours it make me go hmmm. It does say caramel coloring - what is that made from? So I got on the internet to see if anyone else is having problems and here you all are. I guess these are a no no now. That's too bad. They were good.

loraleena Contributor

Geez, I always wondered why I always felt fuzzy headed and a little yucky after I ate those. I stopped eating them because of this!! I get that reaction to all the flavors.

bakinghomesteader Contributor

Hmmmm very interesting. As some of you know, I have been trying to figure out what has been making me feel bad the last several days. I didn't even think about this. I had the Santa Fe BBQ ones. They are soooo good. But, maybe that is what's bothering me. I will cut it out as well as some other stuff and see.

Thanks for the info

      I might suggest you consider buckwheat groats. https://www.amazon.com/Anthonys-Organic-Hulled-Buckwheat-Groats/dp/B0D15QDVW7/ref=sr_1_4_pp?crid=GOFG11A8ZUMU&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.bk-hCrXgLpHqKS8QJnfKJLKbKzm2BS9tIFv3P9HjJ5swL1-02C3V819UZ845_kAwnxTUM8Qa69hKl0DfHAucO827k_rh7ZclIOPtAA9KjvEEYtaeUV06FJQyCoi5dwcfXRt8dx3cJ6ctEn2VIPaaFd0nOye2TkASgSRtdtKgvXEEXknFVYURBjXen1Nc7EtAlJyJbU8EhB89ElCGFPRavEQkTFHv9V2Zh1EMAPRno7UajBpLCQ-1JfC5jKUyzfgsf7jN5L6yfZSgjhnwEbg6KKwWrKeghga8W_CAhEEw9N0.eDBrhYWsjgEFud6ZE03iun0-AEaGfNS1q4ILLjZz7Fs&dib_tag=se&keywords=buckwheat%2Bgroats&qid=1769980587&s=grocery&sprefix=buchwheat%2Bgroats%2Cgrocery%2C249&sr=1-4&th=1 Takes about 10 minutes to cook. Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
