Quaker Rice Cakes

I have eaten Quaker Rice Cakes for over 4 years now and I know I have never had a reaction to them. I used to eat their caramel corn cakes and then they changed them to caramel corn rice cakes--I couldnt eat the corn cakes anymore anyways. I did react to their Choc Chip Snack Cakes a few months ago--I thought I reacted to the soy/corn combination, but I could have been glutened by them. My reaction began almost 20 mins after eating 3 little rice snacks and I was sick for over 2 weeks--took another couple of weeks to get back to normal. I would really like to know how many of you have reacted to them--maybe I should stop eating them altogether. Thanks, Deb

I actually email them concerning their products - they don't guarantee their products to be glutent free. So I quit them. I miss them, but I like my health much more than a product.

Okay, here is part of the answer from Quaker concerning gluten free

"...Grains are handled and transported in bulk by our suppliers...It is important we let you know the this product may contain trace amounts of grains that may be grown, harvested or stored with other grains and we cannot guarantee that this product is gluten free...."

I quit them, better safe (and healthy) than sorry.

Does anyone know of any gluten-free rice cakes? I was eating the Quaker ones everyday because I thought they guaranteed their rice cakes. Oops.

I got some at my local health food store. I can't remember the name, but they were also 100% organic from California and bland and pricey.

This is from the Quaker Canada website in the FAQ section. I'm not sure how current it is. Maybe the Canadian products are different which is probably why I am confused.

Do you have any gluten-free products?

* Although The Quaker Oats Company of Canada primarily produces products that are grain-based, we do have a few gluten-free products. Most flavours of Quaker® Rice and Corn Cakes and Quaker® Crispy Minis Rice Chips are gluten free. However, our newest flavour of Quaker® Rice Cakes, Savoury Tomato & Basil, is not gluten free. Gatorade® Thirst Quencher, Aunt Jemima® Syrups and Quaker® Corn Meal are all gluten free. Quaker® Puffed Rice is also considered gluten free; however, as is produced on the same production line as Puffed Wheat, there is a minute chance of cross contamination. Due to changes which might occur to the product formula, it is important to check our ingredient listing regularly.

Lundberg's are gluten-free. I think they only have the salty/savory flavors (nothing sweet like the Quaker carmel)

They have a honey-nut (but there are no nuts in it at all) that's sweet. They also have an apple cinnamon, but I'm not a huge fan of that one. I do like the seaweed tamari one. :-)

They have a lot of other quite tasty flavors. (The unsalted plain are a bit boring, but the rest aren't bad.)

      potato chip cross contamination

      By RMJ · Posted

      I don’t know what sort of labeling TJs does for gluten free.  In general, if a company labels some products gluten free, then has a product not labeled gluten free, I would be very cautious with that product.

      Welcome to the forum, @Tracey Thomas! Can you be more specific about the the blood test that was done for celiac disease? There isn't just one that can be run so it would be helpful to know which one or which ones were run to get an idea if others should have been run that weren't. Here is an article to help you understand what I'm talking about:  In order for celiac disease testing to be valid you must be eating significant amounts of gluten containing foods for weeks up to the time of testing. Often, people who suspect they may have celiac disease will experiment ahead of testing with the gluten free diet or at least cutting back significantly on their gluten intake. By so doing, they sabotage the testing. A person should be consuming at least 10g of gluten (the amount found in approximately 4-6 slices of bread) daily for several weeks leading up to the day of testing. Also, if a person has certain medical conditions such as anemia and diabetes or if they are IGA deficient (see the article I linked) it can skew the IGA blood tests down toward the negative range. It's really important that a "total IGA" test be ordered to check for IGA deficiency but many physicians neglect to do this.

      Also I had low b12 but my blood test came back normal for celiac not sure if it was because I didn’t eat anything at that time.

      Hi, I’m recently new to the celeiac disease. I’m still going through testing. I’ve had major pain in stomach for years off and on like stabbing fold you over can’t move type pain. I assumed it was gas pains but had a lot of that too. Now after going back and forth to doctor for 2 years with same symptoms just new ones were added every time. Very fatigued muscle weakness felt like my legs could collapse. I’d sleep all night thinking I was good. I’m always so tired as if I had no sleep. Terrible headaches joint pain numbness and tingling in fingers. I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism. I have circulation problems and Renards disease hands and feet stay cold. Now 5 weeks ago I woke up with a rash on hip that itch so bad it was red purplish bumps I thought was shingles went to doctor several times they told me it wasn’t shingles but gave me a steroid and a cream it didn’t really help I started getting more on my elbows all down both sides my chest and sides of breast’s needless to say I was going crazy it hurt it felt like it was stinging and itching so bad. I went to emergency room had low grade fevers and blood pressure was up never had that issue I also have major brain fog through all this is all of a sudden feel dizzy like it come and go quick. With the dizziness. So doctor in emergency room ask have I ever been sent to a rheumatologist. I haven’t. So they referred me to dermatologist and dermatologist did 3 biopsies and was suspecting dermatitis herpetformis . A reaction to celeiac disease. Doctor put me on another round of steroids for 10 days and gave me something to help me sleep and a cream to help the itching. It started to help still after 4 weeks I have places that are still there but fading. I’m currently out of steroids and I ate brownie and woke up with sore throat so tired neck was hurting itching hairline had bumps and back of neck ate blue bells new chocolate ice cream with brownie and truffles in it absolutely delicious but 5 minutes after my throat felt like it was closing up had severe itching and bumps on front of neck and elbows and arms and under breast. Pain in stomach felt nauseous. So I go back Tuesday for final results of biopsies from dermatology. They don’t want me to change anything until testing is over but I’m so miserable.

      potato chip cross contamination

      By glucel · Posted

      Trader joe stocks a potato chip simply that is made with potato, olive oil and sea salt but is not stated as gluten-free.. Many chip bags state gluten free but this one does not.  Of interest, I raised the point of cross contamination to my gastro doc and he just waived it off said don't worry about it but being a newly diagnosed celiac {4 months} I am being cautious. So I would like to hear some opinions from fellow celiacs. I admit that I have already eaten one bag of these thinking they were gluten-free and had no reaction that I knew of.
