Lay's Stax "gluten Free" Label!

My DW bought a tube of "Lay's Stax". They are the same thing as Pringles basically. I was looking at the label expecting to find the dreaded "modified food starch" which would mean uncertainty and thus my inability to enjoy them, when I saw printed on the side of the can right above the bar code, "This product is naturally free of gluten." :o

Other than on specialty health products, I have never seen this on any other packaged food before. How nice would it be if everybody did this? I don't normally eat a lot of this type of thing, but you can bet I'll be getting these from now on, as long as they keep this text on the label! :lol:

The Lays Staxx chips say are gluten free. I've even heard they are made on a dedicated gluten free line. MFS can contain gluten but it doesn't always you just have to check with the manufacturer. I eat Staxx all the time and I am sooo happy that they even have "this product is naturally free of gluten" right on it!!! They are starting to get it :D

I know--that's terrific! This is a big step--now companies not only have gluten-free lists or ingredient listing policies, but a name-brand mainstream company wrote gluten-free on the package the way a specialty food company would in a health food store! A major victory for us all...maybe some other companies will follow this lead :)

I had heard about this before....and also about the dedicated lines Kaiti mentioned.

. . .A standard US definition and rules for what glutenfree is would be good someday.

Remember that a lot of products are naturally glutenfree but are not made on dedicated lines so you have to check to make sure.

Luckily, these are.

My whole family LOVES Lays Stax! The pizza flavor didn't say it on the label, so I called the company while I was in the store and they assured me that ALL of the Stax line is gluten free, and they sent me coupons and stickers a pencil and a temp tattoo all for my little girl. They also sent me a current list of all of there gluten-free products. I love Frito Lays!!!!

      Trying to read my lab results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I agree, and hopefully your doctor will contact you soon about the next step, which will likely be an endoscopy to confirm your diagnosis. Do you have celiac disease symptoms?

      Have this rash forming on the back of my legs. Looking for relief outside of going to the doctor.

      By Kirbyqueen · Posted

      Still dealing with this rash on my legs. I've eliminated ringworm (through use of topical ointments). And I also know it's not shingles, as I've never had chickenpox before and I'm still fairly young. Through a lot of online research, I'm leaning more towards dermatitis herpetiformis, eczema, or psoriasis. I've actually got a doctor's appointment in May (finally got some insurance) and I'm going to bring it up then. I'm feeling really hopeful and excited to maybe be getting some relief soon.   Big thanks to everyone for the suggestions and positive thoughts!

      Trying to read my lab results

      By trents · Posted

      You have three celiac disease specific antibody tests that are positive: Endomysial  Antibody IGA (aka, EMA), tTG-IGA, and tTG_IGG. Furthermore, your Immunoglobulin A at 55 is low, meaning you are IGA deficient. This one is not an antibody test for celaic disease per se but a measure of "total IGA" levels and if low (yours is low) it can suppress the individual antibody scores and even cause false negatives. So, yes, it definitely looks like you have celiac disease.   Do not yet begin a gluten free diet as your physician may refer you to a GI doc for an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining for confirmation of the antibody testing. This may help:

      Hi, I received my labs via email yesterday and have not heard back from my doctor yet. Can anyone tell me if these results indicate I have Celiac?      Endomysial Antibody IgAPositive  Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA6  H0-3 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 3 - Weak Positive 4 - 10 - Positive >10 - Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten-sensitive enteropathy. FImmunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum55  L87-352 (mg/dL) Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG183  H0-5 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 5 - Weak Positive 6 - 9 - Positive >9

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.
