We've been eating the reformulated Quaker ones with no problem. They say gluten-free right above the nutritional info. If it's not there, don't buy them!

If you're okay with corn, try Corn Thins. They're Australian, but we get them here in Canada (sorry, not sure where you are). They are delicious and have way more flavour than rice cakes. Think of popcorn, but in the form of a think ricecake!

On the quaker site and the rice cake bags themselves, there is allergy information. It always states what is DOES contain and what it MAY contain. And all sources of gluten are listed, not just wheat. For example the cracker-jack flavour says CONTAINS BARLEY. The plain ones say MAY CONTAIN PEANUT. Since they are so good about labelling (and the fact that I don't get sick from them) I trust that they are safe!

PS I am in Canada, this might be different other places

i had the same question about quaker and i i actually called them. i specifically asked about the gluten free issue (despite labeling - you just never know!) and then directly asked them about cross contamination/same equipment, etc. they told me explicitly that it was a dedicated line and if it weren't, they are not allowed to declare it gluten free (or they could but would be required to put a warning on the label).

so i think you're safe with quaker!

I saw them in Whole Foods in the US. It made me laugh to see them somewhere so fancy - I never thought of them as being anything special pre-going gluten free. But yes, they are gluten free and they are very tasty. I like the multi-grain ones best. Unfortunately I've found I don't tolerate corn very well and I had to stop eating them. I save my occasion corn eating for tacos.

I love Quaker caramel rice snack cakes, and the chocolate ones, and the apple cinnamon ones as well. They don't say "gluten free" on the front of the bag, but there are no wheat ingredients listed and for allergens it just says milk and soy. I don't have problems eating them, and since I'm counting calories they are a great afternoon snack food.

Maybe I got a bad batch or something, but I got glutened really badly by Quaker rice cakes. I found a health food store nearby that has Corn Thins, though, so I'm looking forward to trying those.

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse. But it is important not to stop the treatment. Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency. I didn't know...

      still struggling with cravings

      I totally get this. It's absolutely a grieving process, and it's okay to feel gutted about the loss of those simple joys, especially at 18. Your feelings are completely valid—it's not about being ungrateful for your amazing boyfriend, it's about mourning the life you thought you'd have. That "tortured by the smell" feeling is so real.

      Hi Colleen Are you supplementing B12/having injections? I have learned recently that sometimes when you start addressing a B12 deficiency, it can temporarily make your symptoms worse.  But it is important not to stop the treatment.  Regarding your problems with anxiety, again that is another symptom of a B12 deficiency.   I didn't know what anxiety was until it hit me like a train several months before gastrointestinal issues began, so I can certainly relate.   Two books which helped me hugely were At Last A Life by Paul David (there is a website you can look up) and The Depression Cure: The Six-Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs by Dr Steve Llardi.  Although his book is aimed at people who have depression, following the principals he sets out was so helpful in lessening my anxiety.  Llardi suggests we need to focus on getting enough: - physical exercise - omega-3 fatty acids - natural sunlight exposure - restorative sleep - social connectedness - meaningful, engaging activity   ... and we should feel a lot better. That is not to stay you must stop taking medication for depression or anxiety if you have been prescribed it, but adopting the changes Dr Llardi sets out in the book should really help. Can I just ask two more questions:  1) you say that you are B12 deficient, did they test your iron levels too?  If not, you really ought to be checked for deficiency and, 2) did they check your thyroid function, as an overactive thyroid can be cause rapid heartbeat and a lot of coeliacs have thyroid issues?

Im angery because the "celiac specialist " basically lightly dismissed me.Im extremely angery and fighting for a new primary care physician which is hard to do in Northern Cali.So currently without and looking.Im angery that its lightly taken when its extremely serious to the one who has it.My only evidence is a brochure back in the days when I got news letters when I lived at my parents.It was published in 1998.I was diagnosed before any foods eliminated from my diet. Angery doctors don't take seriously when Im clearly speaking.I did write to the medicine of congress and have case number.

Your feelings are completely valid—it's not about being ungrateful for your amazing boyfriend, it's about mourning the life you thought you'd have. That "tortured by the smell" feeling is so real. It does get easier, I promise, but it's okay to sit in the sadness and just vent about how much it stings right now. Thanks for sharing that. Celiac.com has published a book on our site by Jean Duane PhD called Gluten-Centric Culture, which covers many of the social aspects of having celiac disease: This chapter in particular covers issues around eating with family and others - Gluten-Centric Culture: Chapter 5 - Grabbing A Bite Together:
