Frito Lay Product Contamination


diapason05

Recommended Posts

diapason05 Rookie

I went to their site and looked up all their gluten-free products.. They do say that all products are made on same line..

I am pretty sure that

*Cracker Jacks

*Natural White Cheddar Cheetos

*Hot, Honey Roasted, and Regular Peanuts by FritoLay

have all caused me to have a reaction.

But!! Now, of course, I have to question whether the Dairy that might have been in the Cheetos and Cracker Jacks.., and the Peanuts, themselves, might actually be the cause of me feeling sick- and not the possibly gluten-contamination.

Anyone have any experience with their products (I'm sure you have, there is a huge amount of gluten-free Frito Lay products.)

I have trouble with Frito Lay products that are flavored. The BBQ Lays Stacks made both my son and me sick even though the can says Naturally Gluten Free. I have not had a problem with plain Fritos or Plain Lays Chips.

There are a few items made on dedicated lines, although I can't remember which ones other than the Stax. They are on their own lines and no flavor has gluten.

Me and son are also soy-free.

I was happy to see that the Fritoes round container of 'Scoops', their regular corn chip only in a different shape for dipping, totally agrees with me and son.

And we are both very severely gluten-sensitive, so I would say the plain Fritoes corn chips are definitely safe to eat (at least the 'Scoops' in the round container, that's what I've tried personally and can attest to for sure).

Best wishes to all!

I have had problems with lays and fritos. I even got sick from the lays stax from all the oil in them. I dont eat any of their products anymore. I pretty much just stick to kettle chips and boulder chips now.

Me, too. Fritos sometimes give me problems, but I don't think it's a gluten problem ... I think it's a junk food problem ... I normally eat very healthy, so Fritos don't sit well. Lay's Stax plain are always okay though ... I think they just aren't as greasy as Fritos.

Really, any flavored product affects me.

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!
