Utz Chips?

Does anyone have the brand UTZ chips in their area? I have come across these and they all have "this is a gluten free food" on them except their bake tortilia chips. Wondering if anyone had tried them. I also came across chips by the brand name "Kettles" that are a kettle cook potato chip. I have found these in Food Lion and Lowes Food. Anyone tried thses??

Yes, they are fine. I've had them many times. Tthey are just potato chips.

Utz has multiple factories to make their chips, pretzels, cheese puffs, etc. You may want to check w/ customer relations to be sure that the tortilia chips are not made in a factory that also makes the pretzels or cheese puffs. (i happen to <3 utz & a number of years ago had the opportunity to go on one of their factory tours.)

Thank you both!

I have bought Utz. My inlaws are in PA and we lived there for a short while. That's where they are made. You can mail order them from their website. The only problem with that for us is that we had to get so many chips we couldn't eat them all before they went bad. So I quit doing that. Daughter also has a peanut allergy so that did limit what we could buy even more.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system

      Scott Adams. I was dealing with a DR that didn't care about me being celiac. I repeatedly told him that I was celiac and is everything gluten-free. He put an acrylic lens from j&j. I called the company to ask about gluten and was told yes that the acrylic they use has gluten....then they back tracked immediately and stopped talking to me. The Dr didn't care that I was having issues. It took me 6 months and a lot of sickness to get it removed.... which can only happen within 6 months. The Dr that took it out said that it was fused and that's why I lost vision. If they would have removed it right away everything would be fine. He put in a silicone one that was gluten-free and I've had no issues at all in the other eye. Do not do acrylic!

      Welcome @Martha Mitchell, I too would like to know more about your prior lenses, and especially about the potential of gluten in lenses. In theory this should not harm most celiacs, as the autoimmune reaction normally begins in the gut, however, in those who are super sensitive or have dermatitis herpetiformis it may be a potential issue.
