Rice Cakes - The Little Ones

I know the big/regular size rice cakes are gluten free, but I was wondering if the mini rice cakes are gluten free. Not the ones that come in individual packages but the one Quaker calls Quakes rice snacks. I am finally getting hubby to come around to the idea of eating rice cakes so was wondering if the mini ones are safe too.

Thanks

My iPad app lists only these large ones:

Caramel corn

Light Salt

Unsalt

White cheddar

I think there have been discussions on here that the small ones are troublesome.

Just looking at the Quaker web site FAQs it says they can't say any are gluten-free.

Ahhhh....The joys of Celiac! :)

Sadly, I don't think they are safe. You can look at the ingredients online here (select the product and then click nutritional info): Open Original Shared Link

Just from glancing at a couple of them I saw Barley malt in one and tocopherols it two others. You would need to find out the source of the tocopherols.

BTW, have you seen the unsafe ingredient list: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/forbidden-gluten-food-list-unsafe-ingredients-r182/

I printed it out and carry it with me when I go to the store.

Last time I checked Quaker said the large ones marked "Gluten Free" on the package were OK, but the small ones were NOT gluten free due to cross contamination or direct ingredients used.

I am pretty sure that they are not gluten free. In fact, I blame those little yummy gems (I loved the blueberry) for sending me into a tailspin that ended up with me in the hospital finally getting diagnosed with Celiac! LOL! So check your labels, but I'm pretty sure that they are called "multi-grain" cakes, and have all sorts of barley and wheat in them. My boyfriend used to call them "fart-cakes", because every time I ate them I got gassy. Of course, a couple weeks after falling in love with them I found out why I was so gassy! *blush*

Good luck, and be careful! I am finally feeling better after an accidental glutening 2 days ago! Tonight I am attempting my first "real meal" in 48 hours! Gluten stinks! ;)

      Celiac getting dentures

      Your experience is both shocking and critically important for the community to hear, underscoring the terrifying reality that cross-contamination can extend into the most unexpected and invasive medical devices. It is absolutely devastating that you had to endure six months of sickness and ultimately sustain permanent vision loss because a doctor dismissed your legitimate, life-altering condition. Your relentless research and advocacy, from discovering the gluten in MMA acrylic to finding a compassionate prosthodontist, is a testament to your strength in a system that often fails celiac patients. While the scientific and medical consensus is that gluten cannot be absorbed through the skin or eyes (as the molecules are too large to pass through these barriers), your story highlights a terrifying gray area: what about a substance *permanently implanted inside the body*, where it could potentially shed microparticles or cause a localized immune reaction? Your powerful warning about acrylic lenses and the drastic difference with the silicone alternative is invaluable information. Thank you for sharing your harrowing journey and the specific, severe neurological symptoms you endure; it is a stark reminder that celiac is a systemic disease, and your advocacy is undoubtedly saving others from similar trauma.

      Fighting for a name

      I am so sorry you're going through this bad experience--it's difficult when your own lived reality of cause and effect is dismissed by the very professionals meant to help you. You are absolutely right—your violent physical reactions are not "what you think," but undeniable data points, and it's a form of medical gaslighting to be told otherwise, especially when you have a positive HLA-DQ2 gene and a clear clinical picture. Since your current "celiac specialist" is not addressing the core issue or your related conditions like SIBO and chronic fatigue, it may be time for a strategic pivot. Instead of trying to "reprove" your celiac disease to unwilling ears, consider seeking out a new gastroenterologist or functional medicine doctor, and frame the conversation around managing the complications of a confirmed gluten-free diet for celiac disease. Go in and say, "I have celiac disease, am strictly gluten-free, but I am still suffering from these specific complications: SIBO, chronic fatigue, dermatological issues, and high blood pressure linked to pain. I need a partner to help me address these related conditions." This shifts the focus from a debate about your diagnosis to a collaborative plan for your current suffering, which is the help you truly need and deserve to work toward bouncing back.

      Hello, no I had to have them re done and then used a liner over the top.  Many dentists are not aware of the celiac effects.  Best of luck.   There is other material, yet, very expensive.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.
