Mission Corn Chips

I know there are no gluten containing items in these corn chips. However, is there concern for CC? Are they fried with other gluten containing items?

The Mission chips that I buy have "gluten free" right on the label, so they must be pretty safe! I eat them all the time and haven't had a problem. Their corn tortillas are gluten-free also, and the salsa flavor chips are gluten-free and yummy. Costco carries a huge bag of Mission chips, for dirt cheap!

The bags I buy now no longer state gluten-free. I e-mailed the company about it. They have not changed a thing, just took away the gluten-free label. Their reason is that the governement (US) will be defining what is gluten-free in the near future. They are waiting to see what comes of that before they label gluten-free. I eat the chips and have never had a problem.

They removed the label here too, and then a month later they re-added it. I called them. I saw a post on here earlier about this. Basically, there was some legal banter going on about what it meant to label things gluten free so they took it off for a bit.

Mission chips are gluten free, and not cooked in oil with non gluten-free. But have the the typical statement "they are produced in a facility...."

I eat them all the time. Never had a problem.

That is great news! I noticed the bags no longer said gluten-free, so I have been avoiding them. Thanks Hez, for the info.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.

      It's most likely going to be a celiac disease diagnosis based on your blood test results, but wait for your doctor to give you a green light for going gluten-free, as they may want to do additional testing. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
