Yeah, Tostitos leave me feeling a little yuck. I like Mission Corn Tortilla chips... more like strips. :huh: A little more expensive, but IMO much better and they've never bothered me. Lay's Stax are also supposed to be made on dedicated lines, last I checked, if you want a potato chip.

We eat Stax and Kettle brand potato chips. Both say gluten free on package.

Terra chips are my gluten-free (and corn-free) favorite :P

Stax are made on a dedicated line. There is no risk of CC. Frito corn chips are gluten free but not made on a dedicated line. Some people have issues with Frito Lay products because of this. My own son gets leg cramps when he eats too much Lays.

I agree with UTZ's chips...they are good. I can't eat Kettle chips, they make me sick. I tried them when I was on vacation in Mich, because they do not have UTZ there.

I used to eat regular Lays chips all the time, never had a problem with them...the bags from Plano Texas are ok...but, they changed their oil from sunflower/safflower oil to sunflower/corn oil, I won't touch them anymore.

well they are not made on dedicated lines and some people feel ill after eating them...ive been eating them on the road recently and my gluten antibody was high on my retest so there may be a connection but cant say for sure

My husband and I shop at Trader Joe's and Whole Foods a lot. TJ's is very good at marking their gluten free foods (including potato and corn chips) with a little "g" for gluten free. They literally have dozens if not hundreds of foods on their gluten free food list which you can download from their website. Whole Foods also has dedicated gluten free sections.

I don't know if you live close to a Trader Joe's or a Whole Foods, but if so, that's my suggestion.

I didn't see them mentioned yet, but Open Original Shared Link chips are amazing corn chips which come in a large variety of flavors and are certified gluten-free. My personal favorites are the olive or the jalepeno, but like I said, there are tons to choose from and they are very very tasty!

My absolute favorite chips are Xochitl corn chips. They say they are gluten-free right on the package and are made with non-GMO, organic corn. They are a bit pricey, but worth it to me. They sell them at Whole Foods as well as some mass grocery stores.

I LOVE "food should taste good" chips... they are so yummy and don't have yucky ingredients!

Oops! They made a boo boo. You can order 60 assorted or bags of your choice of items. I did my choice but it seems instead of 10 bags of honey BBQ chips, they sent crab. Apparently daughter doesn't like crab. She put them in a basket and she's giving them to her dad for his birthday. Hehehe.

Rice Works and Lundburg chips are amazing! 100% Gluten free. But if you're allergic to corn, (for anybody on here who is) don't eat them. But Cheecha Krackles are great if you can't eat corn!

i believe FSTG and kettle contains dairy.

do stax, mission and tostitos contain GM foods?

riceworks and lundberg contain sesame.

has anybody tried deep river or proper crisps or ten acre?
all 3 contain some allergens.
i believe ten acre contains soy.. becos they are GFDF.
i believe deep river contains dairy.

so, can anybody recommend brands of allergen-free chips/crisps?

I think it depends on what you are " allergic" to.  Maybe ask for chips without your allergens?  People can be allergic to anything.  

 

I would think plain chips would not have dairy, but maybe flavored one.  Just potato, oil and salt.

      Hi @Dizzyma I note what @trents has commented about you possibly posting from the UK.  Just to let you know that am a coeliac based in the UK, so if that is the case, do let me know if can help you with any questions on the NHS provision for coeliacs.    If you are indeed based in the UK, and coeliac disease is confirmed, I would thoroughly recommend you join Coeliac UK, as they provide a printed food and drink guide and also a phone app which you can take shopping with you so you can find out if a product is gluten free or not. But one thing I would like to say to you, no matter where you live, is you mention that your daughter is anxious.  I was always a bit of a nervous, anxious child but before my diagnosis in mid-life my anxiety levels were through the roof.   My anxiety got steadily better when I followed the gluten-free diet and vitamin and mineral deficiencies were addressed.  Anxiety is very common at diagnosis, you may well find that her anxiety will improve once your daughter follows a strict gluten-free diet.

      Welcome to the celic.com community @Dizzyma! I'm assuming you are in the U.K. since you speak of your daughter's celiac disease blood tests as "her bloods".  Has her physician officially diagnosed her has having celiac disease on the results of her blood tests alone? Normally, if the ttg-iga blood test results are positive, a follow-up endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to check for damage would be ordered to confirm the results of "the bloods". However if the ttg-iga test score is 10x normal or greater, some physicians, particularly in the U.K., will dispense with the endoscopy/biopsy. If there is to be an endoscopy/biopsy, your daughter should not yet begin the gluten free diet as doing so would allow healing of the small bowel lining to commence which may result in a biopsy finding having results that conflict with the blood work. Do you know if an endoscopy/biopsy is planned? Celiac disease can have onset at any stage of life, from infancy to old age. It has a genetic base but the genes remain dormant until and unless triggered by some stress event. The stress event can be many things but it is often a viral infection. About 40% of the general population have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, for most, the genes remain dormant.  Celiac disease is by nature an autoimmune disorder. That is to say, gluten ingestion triggers an immune response that causes the body to attack its own tissues. In this case, the attack happens in he lining of the small bowel, at least classically, though we now know there are other body systems that can sometimes be affected. So, for a person with celiac disease, when they ingest gluten, the body sends attacking cells to battle the gluten which causes inflammation as the gluten is being absorbed into the cells that make up the lining of the small bowel. This causes damage to the cells and over time, wears them down. This lining is composed of billions of tiny finger-like projections and which creates a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients from the food we eat. This area of the intestinal track is where all of our nutrition is absorbed. As these finger-like projections get worn down by the constant inflammation from continued gluten consumption before diagnosis (or after diagnosis in the case of those who are noncompliant) the efficiency of nutrient absorption from what we eat can be drastically reduced. This is why iron deficiency anemia and other nutrient deficiency related medical problems are so common in the celiac population. So, to answer your question about the wisdom of allowing your daughter to consume gluten on a limited basis to retain some tolerance to it, that would not be a sound approach because it would prevent healing of the lining of her small bowel. It would keep the fires of inflammation smoldering. The only wise course is strict adherence to a gluten free diet, once all tests to confirm celiac disease are complete.

      Hi all, I have so many questions and feel like google is giving me very different information. Hoping I may get some more definite answers here. ok, my daughter has been diagnosed as a coeliac as her bloods show anti TTG antibodies are over 128. We have started her  on a full gluten free diet. my concerns are that she wasn’t actually physically sick on her regular diet, she had tummy issues and skin sores. My fear is that she will build up a complete intolerance to gluten and become physically sick if she has gluten. Is there anything to be said for keeping a small bit of gluten in the diet to stop her from developing a total intolerance?  also, she would be an anxious type of person, is it possible that stress is the reason she has become coeliac? I read that diagnosis later in childhood could be following a sickness or stress. How can she have been fine for the first 10 years and then become coeliac? sorry, I’m just very confused and really want to do right by her. I know a coeliac and she has a terrible time after she gets gluttened so just want to make sure going down a total gluten free road is the right choice. thank you for any help or advise xx
