Potato Chips

I miss potato chips - can anyone suggest some gluten-free versions? I cannot have corn, dairy, or eggs, so just a basic chip that hasn't been cooked in corn oil should work. (Lay's uses corn oil). I noticed that Kettle's brand - although ingrediants seem fine - specifically state on some "not a gluten free product"......made me a little nervous. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

You can e-mail them and they will tell you which of their chips are gluten-free. I know their plain potato chip is ~ also the jalapeno' and cheese one is ~ altho' it is VERY spicey!!! :blink:

I also have to stay away from all of the items you listed. I like Lay's Natural Thick cut Sea Salted chips. Here are the ingredients: Potatoes, Expeller-Pressed Sunflower Oil, and Sea Salt. I have not had any problems/reactions to them. The only problem I have is trying to stop eating them.

I love those too! But I did not want to recoemd them cause Tanaberry (I think it was her) said the Lays have dairy issues?

Not me, on the regular ones, anyway, but it does seem that almost every flavored chip I want to try has whey in it! ;-) I enjoy the Natural Ruffles, though I'm not a big potato chip fan, and they are fairly salty.

I love the Frito-Lay "Stax". They come in tubes similar to Pringles and have several gluten-free varietes. The ones I know of are BBQ (did not care for it), Cheddar (awesome) and plain. They will state that "this product is naturally free of gluten" on the package if it is safe.

Great, thanks for responding. I'll have to give a few of those a try. I appreciate the suggestions.

I think it was me ;) I have reactions to lays chips (just the plain ones) and I'm assuming it's dairy contamination since so many people with celiac here eat them with no problems.

Boulder chips! All natural and trust me, they are really good!

This is a great place to get chips as I live 15 minutes from their main plant. they often supply our local celiac support group with samples for our meetings. If you click on products, it will list the snacks that are gluten free. You can also order on line too.

I was 'got' by Staxs last week, and yea they said gluten-free but... Severe reaction last week thought I might be wrong tried some again yesterday and had a strong gluten reaction the minute I put a chip in my mouth. I have had them other times, even eaten a whole can one night but this can got me. Won't try them again. And I will call Lays Monday.

I want to throw in a vote for Cape Cod chips. I love their sea-salt and vinegar ones, but I'm not sure if the vinegar is the safe kind or not so I'm probably going to have to stop eating them unless someone else on here could let me know. But their other chips are fantastic too. I usually don't like those crunchy kettle-esq type chips but I love theirs and I'm particular about chips.

Thanks again for all the replies. With this help, I definitely have no excuse for craving potato chips and salt any time soon!

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      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.
