I've seen them at Wegmans. They're in the health food section in the snack aisle and always well stocked, at least the one here is.

Jason--I don't know where you are but when I lived in the northeast I got them at Acme, Shoprite, Giant, and Wegmans. In the south now I've seen them at HEB and Kroger. I'm sure most large grocery stores would carry them.

You may wish to reconsider purchasing Mission tortilla chips. There's been quite a bit of discussion about them on this forum, mostly stating that they used to say gluten free on the bag, but now do not. The reason for the change, from what I've read, is the processing has changed. Below I've copied a statement from Mission's FAQs on their own website:

"Are Mission Foods products gluten free?

Mission Foods Corn products are produced with 100% corn flour; wheat ingredients are not added to the formulation. These products include Corn Tortillas, Corn Tortilla Chips, Taco Shells, Tostadas, Corn Gorditas, and Sopes. These products are produced in plants that also process wheat tortillas."

In other words, cross contamination possibilities. I'd say if you have another option that is certified gluten free (or verified through one of the many screening services), it may be a wiser choice, if you want to stay on the safe side.

      Should not be a problem except for the most sensitive celiacs. The amount of gluten that would get in the air from cooking alone has got to be miniscule. I would be more concerned about cross contamination happening in other ways in a living environment where others are preparing and consuming gluten-containing foods. Thinks like shared cooking surfaces and...

      Hello, @NCalvo822, Blood tests for Celiac Disease test for antibodies our bodies make in response to gluten exposure. These Tg IgA 2 antibodies mistakenly attack our own bodies, causing problems in organs and tissues other than just the digestive tract. Joints can ache, thyroid problems or the pancreas can develop. Ataxia is just one of over two hundred...

      symptoms.

      @Rebeccaj, When you smell toast or pasta cooking, that means that particles of that food are floating around in the air. Airborne gluten can then be inhaled and swallowed, meaning the food particles get into your digestive tract. If you're careful to avoid gluten and are still having symptoms, those symptoms could be caused by vitamin deficiencies...

      Lymphocytic Colitis with Celiac

      Do discuss this recent article with your doctors. Thiamine Vitamin B 1 is important to intestinal health. Thiamine deficiency can occur in Celiac Disease due to malabsorption. Supplementing with a B Complex, Benfotiamine, and Vitamin D can help symptoms. Thiamine deficiency aggravates experimental colitis in mice by promoting glycolytic reprogramming...

      Hello, @NCalvo822, Blood tests for Celiac Disease test for antibodies our bodies make in response to gluten exposure.  These Tg IgA 2 antibodies mistakenly attack our own bodies, causing problems in organs and tissues other than just the digestive tract.  Joints can ache, thyroid problems or the pancreas can develop.  Ataxia is just one of over two hundred symptoms of Celiac Disease. Some people with Celiac Disease also make tTg IgA 6 antibodies in response to gluten exposure.  The tTg IgA 6 antibodies attack the brain, causing ataxia.  These tTg IgA 6 antibodies are also found in people with Parkinson's disease, though they may not have Celiac Disease.  First degree relatives (parents, siblings, children) of those diagnosed with Celiac should be tested as well.  Celiac is genetic.  Your mom and sister should be tested for Celiac, too!   Definitely a good idea to keep to a gluten free diet.
