Hey,

I was just wondering if anyone knows if the Quaker mini rice cakes in the cheddar flavor are gluten free- I didn't really see any problem ingredients but I just want to make sure.

Thanks!

Jennifer

Quaker says that NONE of their products are gluten-free because they process so many other grains. Sorry.

Try Lundberg Rice Cakes.

Also, I've had a brand called Koyo or something like that, but I think they may only be in Canada.

Both are good and I haven't had any CC issues.

Good luck!!

I eat Lundberg all the time with no problems.

Yep Lundberg are good. I would stay away from Quacker due to cc issues.

I've seen them at Sun Harvest (Wild Oats), Whole Foods, Randall's (Safeway), and any other small health food stores I've been to.

They're good, too! They're heartier and have a better texture than quaker.

In the pacific northwest, I can get them at Safeway, QFC, Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Larry's, and the smaller health food stores as well.

Definately stay away from Quaker! We have tried them twice, both the regular and minis, and my little girl had reactions both times. So now, we only eat Lundberg. The buttery caramel ones are pretty good, but they do fall apart quite easily. I always have to vacuum the whole house after my kids have walked around eating rice cakes!

I am not really celiac but have some kind of wheat problem that seems to be 100% better since staying away from wheat products for 2 weeks.

but what I definately am is diabetic (type II)

I suffer from a snack withdrawl since I am addicted to junk food snacks and I have had nothing for the last 2 weeks. I like that crunch that rice cakes give so I bought the flavoured rice cakes.

Now normal rice dishes are not a problem. I usually eat basmati rice and feel comfortable.

Rice cakes though send my blood sugar through the roof. Just 2 rice cakes are a way too much for me. As much as I like the flavours, rice cakes are a no-no for me.

      @gfreenc, there is no gluten in milk, whether human or bovine. Gluten is a protein in certain grains but it is broken down into various amino acids during digestion before it gets into the bloodstream and thus it will not wind up in milk.

      It is definitely possible for you to be sensitive to maltodextrin, even it if is gluten-free. In the United States, maltodextrin is occasionally made from wheat, but it is still considered gluten-free by FDA standards. Here’s why: Why Maltodextrin is Gluten-Free: Highly Processed: Maltodextrin, regardless of its source (corn, rice, potato, or wheat), undergoes an extensive processing method that removes proteins, including gluten. The final product is essentially pure carbohydrate. FDA Standards: For a product to be labeled gluten-free in the U.S., it must contain less than 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten. Maltodextrin derived from wheat is processed to meet this threshold, making it safe for individuals with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. Source Labeling: In the U.S., food labeling regulations under the Food Allergen Labeling and Consumer Protection Act (FALCPA) require wheat to be listed as an allergen if used in the product. This helps individuals avoid wheat-derived maltodextrin if they are allergic to wheat (a separate condition from celiac disease). Bottom Line for People with Celiac Disease: Maltodextrin is considered safe for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity, even if derived from wheat. If the product is labeled gluten-free, you can trust it adheres to strict FDA standards. However, if you’re still concerned or sensitive to trace amounts, you can opt for products where maltodextrin is explicitly labeled as being derived from non-wheat sources, such as corn or rice.

      Miso can be gluten-free, but it depends on the ingredients and how it's made. Miso is a fermented paste made primarily from soybeans, salt, and koji (a mold used for fermentation). Some varieties also include grains such as rice, barley, or wheat. Rice-based miso is typically gluten-free. Barley or wheat-based miso contains gluten and is not safe for those with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. Even if miso doesn’t list gluten-containing grains, cross-contamination is possible during processing. Look for a certified gluten-free label to ensure safety. Check the ingredient list and packaging for terms like: "Barley" or "wheat" (contains gluten) or "Certified gluten-free" (safe for celiacs). Brands like Miso Master Organic offer certified gluten-free miso varieties, making it easier to find a safe option. If you’re unsure, opt for miso labeled as gluten-free and confirm with the manufacturer if needed. Always double-check ingredients to avoid any accidental gluten exposure. We have it on our forbidden list because in many cases it can be difficult to know for sure whether it's gluten-free. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping.

      It sounds like you’re navigating a lot of testing and trying to make sense of your results. While I’m not a medical professional, I can share some insights that might help. A calprotectin level of 2500 is quite high and typically indicates significant inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract. This could be due to a variety of conditions, including celiac disease, inflammatory bowel disease (like Crohn’s or ulcerative colitis), or other causes of gut inflammation. The celiac testing results will be important to help rule in or out celiac disease as a cause. Your kidney-related results (stage 3a CKD and GFR readings) are worth discussing further with your doctor. While these levels indicate reduced kidney function, they don’t necessarily mean immediate issues, but they should be monitored closely, especially if there’s ongoing inflammation or another underlying condition contributing to it. As for the milk allergy testing, it’s good to have that information, as dairy can sometimes contribute to symptoms in people with celiac or other gut issues. While waiting for the celiac test results, it might be helpful to keep track of any symptoms you’re experiencing, especially related to diet, and share those with your healthcare team. It’s also worth asking your doctor about follow-ups for the kidney results to ensure you're addressing any potential contributors to inflammation or kidney function. I hope you get clarity soon from your test results. It’s great that you’re being proactive about your health, and you’re definitely not alone in this journey. Take care and keep us posted on how things go!
