Baked Lays

I'm fairly new to this board...I usually just check it as a guest on the occasion but I just had to ask someone. I've been gluten-free for about 5 years and did the research on the Baked Lays (i'm on a diet :() to see what flavors I could have....however, I am SO sick...does anyone get sick from the olestra...I was supposed to have a date tonight and had to cancel because I can't leave the bathroom (TMI i know!) I just didn't know if it was a gluten thing or just a normal person reaction...I also had Oscar Meyer Roast Beer, which the ingrediants seemed fine...I know Oscar Meyer doesn't hide ingrediants so I thought that was safe.

Sheesh!

Monkey,

Except for the Lay's Stackers, Lay's are not made on dedicated lines, so there is a risk of cross contamination. And as for olestra, considering the shaky digestive systems we have I wouldn't trust it.

Olestra is known to cause health problems, two of them diarrhea and stomach cramps. Nobody should eat anything with olestra as an ingredient. It is poison!

I hope you feel better soon.

I looked at a bag of these the other day and they had wheat in them. Not sure if some of the flavors are gluten-free. I just looked at a bag of the plain baked lays b/c we were at a cookout and the host had bought them.

I hope you feel better soon!!!

I know the Baked BBQ Lays (my favorite :angry: ) have wheat, and I wouldn't touch olestra at all... it gives you anal leakage! I have enough problems down there without adding that in, esp. as a "food ingrediant" - yuck.

thanks everyone...i re-read the bag and it isn't a wheat issue. The baked lays were a lot yummier than the regular of this flavor...but shoot, i'm not eating those again! I'm feeling a little weak still but i think the "leakage" has subsided....now I'll just be laying around for an entire day trying to recover.

ugh!

An alternative you might want to consider are Kettle Brand Bakes Potato Chips, lightly salted. The ingredients are gluten free and they do not contain any Olestra. Since there are Kettle Brand Bakes made from wheat products there is probably a risk of cross contamination. I have not had any problems with them.

Olestra containg foods all list digestive problems ie. bloating, gas and D .The calorie reduction isn't worth it. Eat some real chips and eat less of them

      I've used magnesium taurinate and magnesium taurate vitamins.  Didn't notice much of a difference when I used them.

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.
