ok.. so I know that I don't make good choices all the time and love to snack. I don't cheat but I do love to snack. I am also super super sensitive to gluten which includes cross contamination. I can't tolerate chex and now I know that my frito products are no longer safe. I have been so sick and I have a bag of ruffles in the cabinet. I love cereal, I love snacks.. I love chips.. in moderation but a small bowl at night or while watching football is perfect for me. For those who are snackers and super sensitive, what do you eat? Is there a safe chip?

I like orville redenbachers popcorn for snacking - I had the butter oil last nite and was fine with it - I'm not fine with tostitos.

I also like veggies and homemade dips.......satisfies my crunch when I add the veggies I like - cukes - celery - and sugar snap peas. You can also do a 'polish firecracker' that's a green onion wrapped in ham with cream cheese....but I do fine with Claussen pickle spears.

Nut Thins crackers are also good for that crunch!

I also can do the Celebration Cinema popcorn - oh yeah!

I eat Santitas white corn chips made by Frito Lay. Anyway, I am what we call super sensitive. I have never had a problem with these. The ingredients are: Whole White Corn, Vegetable oil (Contains One or More of the following: Corn, Sunflower, or Soybean Oil), and salt. No Preservatives. I have a problem with soy but these havn't bothered me at all, thank goodness.

I make a snack out of Hormel canned chicken breast, it's canned like tuna, the ingredients are: Chicken Breast with Rib Meat, Water, Contains 2% or less of Salt, Modified Potato Starch, Sodium Phosphates. Gluten Free, No MSG added. I have a nightshade problem also and this hasn't bothered me. Anyway, I mix it with my gluten free mayo and pickles and it makes a delicious snack with the chips. MMMMMmmmm good. Try it, you might like it.

I love Glutino gluten-free pretzels! If potato chips are what you are looking for Utz , Boulder Canyon, Michael Season's chips appear to be safe but be sure to read the labels for each flavor....hth

For chips, I mostly stick with Mission corn tortilla chips or strips. We eat lots of popcorn here, too. I make it in an air popper and can season it however I want. :)

I roasted chestnuts last night! They were surprisingly easy to do and a nice treat -- something different.

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely.

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong. yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      Am I nuts?

      One doctor suggested it, but then seemed irritated when I asked follow-up questions. Oh well—

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.
