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.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped".

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood t...

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong. yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.
