Daughter brought me a bag of tortilla chips from a company named food should taste good.

the bag proudly proclaims them as gluten free and certified as such by

"The gluten free certfication organization"

The ingredients inlude oat fiber -- I cannot handle oats without getting dh or the big D.

ANyone else have experience with these chips or company?

thanks

Not that company, but several others...I have to read everything since I am also oat and soy "intolerant". Even if it is a brand I am get all the time I still read ingredients!

I eat the chips occasionally BUT I don't eat the ones with oat fiber. Some of us tolerate gluten free oats but some of us don't. I am one who avoids oats. I eat the Black Olive and when I can find them the Chocolate ones.

I've tried the olive ones, sweet potato, buffalo, and multigrain...with no bad effects. Love the olive ones...

Interesting that these companies can loudly proclaim gluten free then stick a ton of oat fiber in things without any qualifications on the labels.

DO you know

"The gluten free certfication organization"

why would they certify something with oat without some sort of label explanation?

Oats are considered to be gluten free. It is the processing that so heavily contaminates most oats that makes them something to avoid. Certified gluten free oats are grown and processed in a way that CC is prevented. That said there are some of us who will react to even for sure certified gluten-free oats. No way of knowing if you are one of those.

I ate a lot of the cinnamon flavored ones for New Year's Eve and reacted poorly to them.

And before you go, oh, how do you know ? I know, because I ate most of the bag that evening, and nothing else weird or different at all that day. And I had club soda/tonic water with a lime twist that evening. Sorry to be so boring!

The ingredients are Stone Ground Corn, High Oleic Sunflower and/or Safflower Oil, Evaporated Cane Juice, Cinnamon, Corn Bran, Sea Salt

I thought I was okay with these ingredients. I eat corn, sunflower seeds if they are plain, cinnamon, and salt by itself. Safflower Oil ?

That was the 2nd time I'd reacted to a commercially made gluten free chip (the other time was to one from a brand I eat the rice cakes from all the time, which also surprised me. Nothing on the label could be readily identified as the culprit. My spouse was so proud of himself for picking these out at the store for me. I had him eat the rest of them.

I've given up on those fried commercial types of gluten chips and am sticking to a plain baked rice cracker for now or something that I make.

Maybe my bag was oat contaminated. That would explain a lot.

I was bummed, because they tasted good.

I may try these things since i can handle the bobs gluten free oats but have tried other things

that said gluten free but had oat bran and I was very very sorry.

Guess it depends on how much of chance I feel like taking -- if any.

I guess have little faith in labeling and certification processes since I have to deal with things that are often market USDA organic and are not.

I have had the sweet potato chips several times with no problems. I do have a problem with oats and I did not know the whole grain variety had oats until after I ate them and got really sick.. I will stick with the sweet potato chips!

      Alcohol

      By Suze046 · Posted

      Hey! I’m recently gluten free and yes I really struggle with alcohol now. I haven’t really drank in 2 months as it just made me feel awful the next day in terms of stomach ache mainly. I’ve had a couple of glasses of white wine here and there (mainly low sulphate) but every time it gives me a gut ache. I think it’s because but guy is so damaged from my journey to discovering my gluten intolerance and hopefully this will improve but honestly I’m just not bothered about having a drink now. I can’t even touch Prosecco or champagne I think the bubbles really upset me!

      I just wanted to share my support for you. Rant away. We all know that, and have experiences like that at some point. I am sorry for that very unpleasant, and emotionally isolating reminder of your medical condition. Which always is exacerbated by the hunger. I will admit many of my family friends, and coworkers found it easier to exclude me than to accommodate me. I also have to be very strict with cross contamination so in hindsight they did me a favor.  The sting however can often still be unearthed when I read experiences like yours.  I am sorry you had that occur. I hope you, and the coworkers can find the easy more accommodating experiences again after this unfortunate incident. Best wishes.

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      By Awol cast iron stomach · Posted

      "...hemorrhoids, constipation and diarrhea" . Heard of indeed. Experienced too. In hindsight, I can remember from age 2 having, and trying to convey my issues. I went 38 years misdiagnosed. So yes one can have these issues. I did have to go back on gluten for a gluten challenge. I failed that challenge and 6 days in they give me permission to stop, and I proceed with my scopes as scheduled. Post those 6 days I had gained 13 intolerances. I had to remove many foods, and reintroduce them back in. Nine years later I have two that remain gluten, and corn. I found it helpful to follow a whole foods diet. I also found autoimmune (AIP) protocol diet/recipes, and Paleo diet/recipes helpful. I still enjoy many of those homemade version recipes. I still continue to make my own salad dressings even if I can find a gluten-free store bought version. Fresh taste best to this palate now.  I did give up many grains I was off many and reverted to coconut flour and almond flour as work arounds .  I still remember the first time my gut experienced the reintroduction of quinoa. It wasn't sure if it wanted to flare or not. In 30 minutes it reported back ok this will pass. Many foods were removed post gluten challenge for me for 2 years and 4 months. At the 2 year 4 month mark is when my body said ok let's eat again, but don't ever feed me gluten again! I wish you the best.

      if you have already learned that Gluten is the cause of your symptoms, of course there is no need to add it back into your diet— your decision could save you a lot of needless suffering. One thing to consider is that if you do have celiac disease, your first- degree relatives may also need to get screened for it, because, like diabetes the disease is genetic, although many of its triggers seem to be environmental factors. You may want to consider getting a genetic test for celiac disease, so you can at least warn your relatives if it turns out that you do carry a celiac gene.
