Guest guest Posted June 2, 2001 Report Share Posted June 2, 2001 Someone mentioned in digest 3190 that her child was eating a lot of Fritos and having a reaction and she thought it might be the corn -- recently it came to light that they may be cross-contaminated with wheat. My son started limiting himself to Fritos, and now we know why :-/. Lis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 3, 2001 Report Share Posted June 3, 2001 My son also freaks out on Fritos, specifically. He does not react to any other corn product. Despite the ingredient list, there is something in them that my kid cannot tolerate. We don't use them any more. in FL > Someone mentioned in digest 3190 that her child was eating a lot of Fritos > and having a reaction and she thought it might be the corn -- recently it > came to light that they may be cross-contaminated with wheat.

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2001 Report Share Posted June 4, 2001 I have the same problem with my daughter. I read either here or on another list something about a corn protein in Fritoes and xanthan gum and some other products that caused the reactions. It doesn't happen with all corn products, like your son, and I'm unable to grasp exactly what it is. Carol > My son also freaks out on Fritos, specifically.
