Frito-lay Baked Lays

I was at the grocery store today and was looking for some chips. Frito Lay claims that their baked Lay's product is gluten-free, but it lists modified food starch as an ingredient. Am I misinterpreting something here?

The MFS could be from corn or any other gluten-free grain

The startch should be corn if they say it's gluten-free.

However, keep in mind that they have a real risk of cross contamination. . .

(From Frito-Lay)

"The above products do not contain gluten nor casein; however, they are produced on the same line as our products that do contain gluten and casein. Although the lines are washed between batches, a slight residue may remain on the lines. Individuals who are extremely sensitive may be affected"

I find that I do get sick (usually pretty soon after eating them) so I have stopped using all their products.

i have found that i get sick too from their chips, and i don't consider myself especially sensitive to gluten. i think i remember seeing on this site though that they were planning to make dedicated lines for their plain chips? don't know if that's true or if it's happened yet.
