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.

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.

Thanks for the updated Wendy's list! :)

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.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
