Aldi's Clancy's Nacho Cheese Tortilla Chips

These chips say naturally gluten free on them, but then in the ingredients it says oat fiber. So are they still gluten free?

I would do more research to see if they're using certified gluten free oats, but I highly doubt it. Most likely, it's probably mislabeled, which is not good. Contact the company and see what you can find out.

Aldi's is VERY difficult to get answers from. Many in the allergy community won't shop there because they are so dodgy about information.

thanks-I will try to call them.

The typical response from them takes 4-6 weeks, IF you even get one. Good luck! I would love to hear if they have improved on that at all since last time I know someone contacted them!

Uggg! I suffered for 2 weeks from a reaction I thought was from some gluten free Mexican food (I assumed cross-contamination). Now I'm betting it was the Clancy's tortilla chips I ate with it! I must have skimmed over the oat fiber when reading the ingredients. How can they say they are "naturally gluten free"? Into the trash they go!! I'm just hoping the 3 chips I just ate don't screw me up for another 2 weeks :(

I shop at aldi's all the time and eat the plain tortilla chips, but I don't get typically sick like many of you.  I have been questioning why most of their food says gluten free while other companies really struggle with their labeling.  I have talked to a representative regarding the frozen vegetables and when I asked if the broccoli was gluten-free, his response was, "why wouldn't it be?" Some things are not labeled gluten-free because they are imported.  So how safe is Aldi's??

      A friend of mine is in the bar trade most of his life and has never heard of lines being mixed for different type of beers and ciders. Better to stick with cans.

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it. 
    • Zuma888
      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.
