Cross Contamination Issues

Does anyone know which brands do not have cross contamination? I'm not looking for brands people don't have issues with. I'm surprisingly sensitive and I'm really getting tired of buying products that are "gluten free" only to find out they share equipment with other products that contain gluten. I've heard just about every company swear they test and numbers come back with 0. Well I'm not buying it. I have still have reactions. I do NOT have dairy issues. I keep a pretty strict diet and know which products bother me. I've been on the diet for 5 months now. i feel like i cant eat anything unless i make it myself. And even then I find out products are bad.

I'm mainly looking for at least some chip brands that are either in a dedicated facility or are made in a separate facility from their products that contain wheat. I'm not interested in products that share equipment that don't give people issues. I need to stay away from that.

Thanks for any help!!!

There is no test that can prove zero content. The available tests can detect 5 parts per million.

To answer your specific question about chips. Here are the chips that come up most often as OK for most people. As Peter is fond of saying YMMV. :)

Mission corn chips & tortillas

Guerrero Tostados

Food Should Taste Good

Kettle Chips (the ones marked gluten-free)

i haven't ordered from the gluten free mall yet but i think i may have to start. i was hoping to find stuff locally. i do have a lot of markets in my area with a decent selection of gluten free stuff. the tough part is finding out about the manufacturing practices.

Some of us are sensitive to smaller amounts of trace cc than others. I am one of the more sensitive ones. I make things myself from scratch. I don't eat out. I wash everything. That is the only way for me to stay healthy. You may not be as bad as all that, but if you are, you can still survive, and it really isn't all that bad.

      Ichthus is the Greek word (using English letters) for fish. The letters in the actual Greek word form an acronym that come from the first letters in the Greek words for "Jesus", "God's Son," "Savior".   Now, back to your family's denial of your celiac disease, I think you can relate to this:

      Thanks for the kind words. It's hard to convince my doctor to investigate further because of a negative blood test and he only tested me for one marker. 🙃 I've come to the point where I need to take this into my own hands because the doctors are infuriating and it's not going anywhere. I've been gluten free for a week and feeling better but I was still consuming dairy and I think that's what's backing me up. Next week no dairy introduced.

      Hello mantooth nice to meet you it's so uncanny what you wrote you sound just like me even the back issues are exactly the same and I'm new here too trying to find out if I have the same had I too have been struggling to find answers with my docters I don't have a diagnosis but I've been struggling like forever and was told ibs and health aniexty was my problem but on researching I've come to the conclusion it's probably more because i cut gluten and lactose out for 6 months and  it was a incredible change for me so although I can't help with diagnosis I can say your not alone in trying  to find answers 😊
