Has anyone tried tried Mr. Krispers rice cracker snacks? They say gluten free (less than 100 ppm). Do you think they are safe to consume?

We have eaten all the varieties with no problems. They are marked gluten-free right on the bag.

I understand that, but is the 100 ppm "safe"? No one has had any reactions? Thanks for your post.

I thought that in the US nothing over 20 ppm was allowed to have a gluten free label on it. I'm very confused. I have a new bag of them. I just bought them and I didn't notice that saying unil now. I'm not going to eat them now. Too afraid.

According to CODEX standards, its anything below 200 ppm.

My daughter and I reacted to them. I posted on here asking if anyone else had a reaction a year or so again and got a nasty pm from someone at the company bashing me for writing that post. I was not impressed!

Becky, are you serious? You actually got a nasty pm from someone at this company? May I ask what was said?

Also, what reaction did you and your daughter have?

At this point, there is no definition in the US for what is gluten free. It is being discussed at the government level, and a ruling is supposed to come out in 8/08. When the ruling comes out, manufacturers using the gluten-free label will be voluntary.

The 200 PPM CODEX standard relates to Europe and other countries, not the US.

We have eaten Mr. Krispers with no effects. Our antibodies are negative, an we did not react to them. You could contact the company or not eat them if you don't fel safe about them. Definitely a personal choice. Good luck with whatever you decide to do. :)

That is right CODEX is for Europe. However, I know some companies here in the US use that standard (at least from what I've read).

It's not that I don't feel safe eating them, it's that I'm not sure if I have reacted with eating them. This is why I've asked what other's experiences have been.

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      There is a 10 year old post in this forum on Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream. The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one. Edy's And Dreyer's Grand Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 1.5 Quart is labeled "Gluten Free". This is a different answer than years gone by. I don't know the answer for any other flavor at this moment. On 1 May, 2026, Edy's website says: "As a general rule, the gluten in Edy's and Dreyer's® frozen dessert products is present only in the added bakery products, such as cookies, cake or brownies. We always label the eight major food allergens on our package by their common name. We recommend to always check the label for the most current information before purchasing and/or consuming a product. The exception to this rule is our Slow Churned French Silk frozen dairy dessert, which contains gluten in the natural flavors." https://www.icecream.com/us/en/brands/edys-and-dreyers/faq It seems that Edy's and Dreyer's are more celiac-friendly than they were 10 years ago. Once I found enough information to make today's buying decision, I stopped researching.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes and goes randomly as before again.
