Potatoe Chips

I've been on the gluten free diet for 3 days only and I'm trying to figure all this out. I've been noticing that most "regular" chips have no wheat or what is considered gluten. Does that mean they are gluten free or what I'm wondering is could there be a good chance of c/c ??

I just dont know anymore what's good or not :(

thanks

Rachael

Lays plain chips are gluten free, as well as many other varieties. If you are allergic to corn, you might want to choose another brand. In the future, go to Google and type in the product you are interested in and "gluten free." Most of the time you will find something on it, either from this list or the company. You will find that your best friend will become the Internet - and your own ability to research. There are tons of posts on products on this site and you can research it right through the site's own search engine. (I am not discouraging you to post questions, just encouraging you to research everything you eat.) There were things I was continuing to eat, like Ore-Ida Crispers - if I would have researched it, I would have saved myself a lot of grief. Good luck! It isn't easy, but worth every bit of effort. In time, you won't even need to think about what you can eat, as you will have your diet in a good place and you will be happy with what is on your menu. You will continue to uncover new and wonderful things that you LOVE and hopefully will become very satisfied and fulfilled with your diet. Personally, I couldn't live without my chips!

Here is the gluten free list:

Holly provided a great list. Please note at the bottom of the list is a statement regarding Lays Staxx manufactured on dedicated lines and are considered FREE OF GLUTEN.

The rest of the extensive listing does not say FREE OF GLUTEN, but MAY be subject to cross contamination during production. Some people here are sensitive to Lays Products, others are not.

Just because I am totally anal retentive :o , I will mention that the Lays list posted above is out of date. The most current list on the frito lay website was updated 11/13/08. There are quite a few discrepancies between the two.

We have never had a problem with any Lays product in our house, so make your own choice whether to eat them or not. Happy potato chips, everybody!

I like Terra Chips :P

Most of them are only seasoned with sea salt, but do check the ingredients.

I will make sure I dig deeper before posting another list - I am so sorry! I don't want to gluten anyone.

      Celiac Disease Patients Face Higher Risk of Systemic Lupus

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I have found that in addition to gluten, I am sensitive to inulin/chicory root fiber. I wondered why I had gastrointestinal symptoms after drinking a Chobani yogurt drink - much like being glutened. Happened at least twice before I figured out that it was that chicory root fiber additive. I do not react to ordinary dairy, yogurt, etc. For the holidays...

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      It's great to hear that your gluten-free journey has been going well overall, and it's smart to be a detective when a reaction occurs. Distinguishing between a gluten cross-contamination issue and a reaction to high fiber can be tricky, as symptoms can sometimes overlap. The sudden, intense, food poisoning-like hour you experienced does sound more consistent...

      Celiac Disease and Skin Disorders: Exploring a Genetic Connection

      This explains a lot. I had a severe leg injury when I was younger. I've had several surgeries. I was super careful, but always got cellulitis. Interesting article. Even when I was gluten free and had surgery, I still got cellulitis.

I wondered why I had gastrointestinal symptoms after drinking a Chobani yogurt drink - much like being glutened. Happened at least twice before I figured out that it was that chicory root fiber additive. I do not react to ordinary dairy, yogurt, etc.  For the holidays, I will only be baking gluten-free treats. I got rid of all gluten-containing flours, mixes and pastas in my kitchen. Much easier to avoid cross-contamination that way!

      It's great to hear that your gluten-free journey has been going well overall, and it's smart to be a detective when a reaction occurs. Distinguishing between a gluten cross-contamination issue and a reaction to high fiber can be tricky, as symptoms can sometimes overlap. The sudden, intense, food poisoning-like hour you experienced does sound more consistent with a specific intolerance or contamination, as a high-fiber reaction typically involves more digestive discomfort like bloating or gas that lasts longer. Since the protein bar was the only new variable, it’s a strong suspect; it's worth checking if it contains ingredients like sugar alcohols (e.g., maltitol, sorbitol) or certain fibers (inulin/chicory root) that are notorious for causing acute digestive upset, even in gluten-free products. For your holiday baking, your plan is solid: bake the gluten-free items first, use entirely separate utensils and pans (not just washed), and consider color-coding tools to avoid mix-ups. Additionally, store your gluten-free flours and ingredients well away from any airborne wheat flour, which can stay in the air for hours and settle on surfaces. Keep listening to your body and introducing new packaged foods one at a time—it’s the best way to navigate and pinpoint triggers on your journey.
