I don't think it's possible to be sure any commercially prepared food is free of cross contamination. Even if gluten-free facilities, ingredients can become contaminated before they reach the facility.

That being said, all flavors of Lays Staxx are made in a dedicated facility that doesn't process any gluten-containing ingredients.

I like the Glutino brand gluten-free crackers.

Last I checked, Mission brand corn chips were made on dedicated equipment that only runs corn and no wheat, but the facility itself makes both corn and flour tortillas.

I don't know if you're close to one, but we do a lot of shopping at Trader Joe's. They are very good about marking things with a "g" when it's gluten free. We buy most of our chips (corn and potato) there, and have never had any trouble (and we are sensitive!). We also buy Mission Tortilla Chips at Costco; they are gluten free.

I recently found a brand called "food should taste good." They have crackers and chips that are tested and certified gluten-free. Their stuff is pretty good.

I also make my own crackers (recipe on website) and potato chips (had to buy a deep ryer and a machine.)

Good luck!

I buy the Mission Corn Chips all the time.

Use to buy Frito Lays brand (look at their gluten list at the bottom) but they run a chance of CC unless you get the Lays Staxx ones.

Crackers I get the Glutino ones occasionally. Crunch Master is sold at Sam's club or at least most of them and is pretty good. Open Original Shared Link

Good Luck

have you tried Schar or Glutino gluten free crackers?

schar are my favorite but i dont hear much about them from other people.... so i dont know how widely available they are. glutino are very good to. not quite a ritz but what are you gonna do haha.

there are also nutthins and rice crackers that are good. but they arent the same kind of cracker. crunchier. i prefer the others for cheese and crackers.

Nut Thins are easier to find than some of the crackers from specific gluten-free manufacturers. They're my staple cracker for dips or tuna salad or egg salad. If you like hard and crunchy and very seedy, Mary's Gone Crackers are also widely available in regular grocery stores.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      If you were off gluten for two months that would have been long enough to invalidate the celiac blood antibody testing. Many people make the same mistake. They experiment with the gluten free diet before seeking formal testing. Once you remove gluten from the diet the antibodies stop being produced and those that are already in circulation begin to be removed and often drop below detectable levels. To pursue valid testing for celiac disease you would need to resume gluten consumption equivalent to the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread daily for at least two weeks, preferably longer. These are the most recent guidelines for the "gluten challenge". Without formal testing there is no way to distinguish between celiac disease and gluten sensitivity since their symptoms overlap. However, celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that damages the small bowel lining, not true of gluten sensitivity. There is no test available for gluten sensitivity so celiac disease must first be ruled out. By the way, elevated liver enzymes was what led to my celiac diagnosis almost 25 years ago.

      Then it does not seem to me that a gluten-related disorder is at the heart of your problems, unless that is, you have refractory celiac disease. But you did not answer my question about how long you had been eating gluten free before you had the blood antibody test for celiac disease done.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      My genetic test results have arrived - I’m homozygous for DQB1*02, meaning I have HLA-DQ2. I’ve read that this is one of the genes most strongly associated with celiac disease, and my symptoms are very clear. I’m relieved that the results finally arrived, as I was getting quite worried since my symptoms have been getting worse. Next step, blood test. What do these results imply? What should I tell my family? I’m concerned that this genetic predisposition might also affect other family members.

      So far 3 months in - worsening symptoms. I have had the worst constipation in my life and I am primarily eating naturally gluten-free foods like potatoes, eggs, salad with homemade dressing, corn tortillas, etc. I hate gluten-free bread and pasta so I don't eat it. Occasionally I eat gluten-free almond flour crackers. As stated in the post, I don't have any vitamin deficiency. I was already tested.
