This revelation that I can eat Corn Chex :lol: got me to thinking - probably taco shells are fine then too, correct? I eat Fritos every day.

I am not aware of Taco Bell serving actual corn tortillas, though.

I am pretty sure they are all flour ones.

I used to occasionally do Taco Bell.

It's the one fast food that wouldn't make me as ill as the others.

Yeah, I am pretty sure those are flour tortillas ... :)

Connie its me again! Regular taco shells that you can get at the grocery & read the ingredients are usually fine. Look at Taco Bells web site - almost everything on it has gluten or is fixed next to gluten often by kids or people who don't really want to work there.

Hi Karen! :D Ok, so maybe making tacos at home for supper is a go ?? :rolleyes: (having read the package ingredients)

Taco Bell has relatively few options.

Tacos and burritos are great, as long as you get full corn tortillas (hard or soft).

I am not a big fan of corn but I do like the brown rice flour tortillas from Food for Life.

Make sure they are not the sprouted ones and they say gluten free on the bag, though!!

Those are great.

Make your own.

Just avoid Taco Bell, okay :)

We buy taco shells after reviewing ingredients etc. We also fry our own using corn tortillas. However, your post is called Taco Bell. If you go to their website they have a very detailed list of allergens. There are things listed that have no "wheat" but still do not fit the "gluten free" column due to risk of cross contamination. I've brought my son (celiac) their once and tried to confirm that they were prepared elsewhere and wouldn't come into contact with any other foods. She looked at me like I was speaking Jibberish... Whatever, he ate them and "seemed" fine.

I go to Taco Bell. I just order the tostada. It is safe. Unfortunately there aren't many choices there, but tostadas were one of my favorites prior to getting diagnosed so it's not too bad for me. I always ask the preparer to wash their hands and change their gloves first and they've always done so with no complaints. I haven't gotten sick eating there yet.

      Stomach burning and neuropathy

      Yeah, that sounds super familiar. When inflammation levels are high — especially at the start of changing your diet — the body often develops a fructose and lactose intolerance. Unfortunately, the only thing that really helps is cutting out anything that isn’t lactose-free or that contains sugar. So basically, stick to meat, veggies, fish…

      Nausea

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight. My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet. I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now. He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs. It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc. It's literally neurological inflammation. Not to be taken lightly here. We...

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-Free.
