Tostitoes

Last night i was watching tv, and they showed an commercial for the new tostitoes made with flour. I havent done any reasearch on them yet. But just wanted to see what you all thought about still eating regular tostitoes now that they make a brand with flour. Im wondering if this is why some are getting sick on tostitoes. I am very upset that they decided to make some now with flour when they know so many people in the world cant have gluten.

... and are they making them all in the same facility as their corn ones??

It's probably worth calling the company and finding out if they're made on the same lines or in the same facility or not - if you like tostitos.

It's hard to fault them for adding flour, if those chips do significantly better in taste tests, since 98% (pretty much literally) of their market can have wheat.

I am going to call them when i get the kids off to school, it is much easier to be on the phone with only 2 kids at home then 5 lol.

I know its not their fault if they taste good with flour. Its just that i love tositoes and if they make them on the same lines as the other chips im going to be so heart broken. They are the only chips i have had since going gluten free lol

:( Please post back what they tell you. That is my dd's favorite too. And they help get us through the month when the Glutino pretzels run out.

Well I did call, and they said many of their products are made on the same areas of gluten based prducts, but they do clean them in between products, so there is a chance things can be cross contaimated, but it will be listed on their products.

And they said there is only one plant that is making the flour chips, that is not anywhere by colorado were i live. So i think everyone in different states should call and see if they are by the plant that makes the flour chips.

She did say she will send me a new list of gluten free products in the mail within 7-10 days.

      Welcome to the forum, @marinke! "Type 1a diabetes (DM1) is associated with an increased risk of celiac disease (celiac disease) (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/35/10/2083/38503/IgA-Anti-transglutaminase-Autoantibodies-at-Type-1 "The prevalence of celiac disease (celiac disease) in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) is 5.1%, and it is often asymptomatic (1)." from: https://diabetesjournals.org/care/article/48/2/e13/157637/Diagnostic-Outcomes-of-Elevated-Transglutaminase So, this is 5x the rate found in the general population.

      Hi James47, You are less than 2 years into your recovery from Celiacs.  Tell us more about the problems you are having. Do you just want to get rid of belly fat or are you still having symptoms like gas and bloating.    For symptoms you may need to change your diet and take various supplements that you cannot adsorb from the foods you eat because of the damage caused by the autoimmune reaction in your small intestine.

      My daughter (4 years old) has type 1 diabetes since she was 1. Therefore, every year a screening is done. We live in the Netherlands. Every year the screening was fine. This year here ttg is positive, 14, >7 is positive. IGA was in range. Could the diabetes cause this positive result? Or the fact that she was sick the weeks before the brood test?

      @DayaInTheSun what were the shortness of breath symptoms for you ? And did they come on all of a sudden or was it a gradual increase in said symptoms?
    • DayaInTheSun
      I had shortness of breath so much so I went to a lung doctor. I told him I get short of breath wirh certain foods, he said “Food doesn’t affect hour breathing.” I told him maybe it was an allergy  he cut me off then said “Food allergies don’t cause shortness of breathe.” I beg to differ as soon as I figured out what foods were causing my shortness of breath it went away. I also never saw him again as he was rude, condescending? And refuse to listen to me kept dismissing my problems as “you’re young.” I cut out Soy, dairy, sesame, eggs, and of course gluten. I stopped being short of breath, going on a two years now. No thanks to the doctor I saw. Figured it out on my own.
