Seriously, I think the Jalapeno cheetos have crack in them. I cannot stop eating them once I open a bag. Safeway has had them on sale for $1/bag this week, and I have bought way too many. Hey, I bet they keep for a long time! _________________ -Colleen

Perhaps you need to seek professional help. Don't make us call A&E TV. We'll do it cuz we luv ya...it hurts us more than it hurts you...you'll poke an eye out...and your face will stay that way some day... _________________ Al

Have you ever watched that show? I haven't actually made it through a whole episode because it is so heartbreaking. My SIL is in rehab right now for alcohol - her 4th stay in a year. Don't think I will be going into Cheeto rehab soon, but you might see me on that Half Ton Dad show eventually, though.
If being hooked on crack laden Jalapeno Cheetos is wrong, I don't want to be right. _________________ -Colleen

| Just want to emphasize to everyone that the regular red-bag Nacho Cheese Doritos AREN'T on that list. As a guy with Addison's I value my salty snacks perhaps more than most, and I was glad to see that most of my favorites are fine, but that was a notable omission. |

Even medicated you crave salty snacks? My salt cravings went away almost as soon as I started steroids. I haven't even heard a 'hey, this is way too salty' in a few years now. Wow, 4 years...time flies!
My MD suggested that I have an 8oz glass of Gatorade everyday. Bet that keeps me in check. |

I certainly don't get cravings like I did when I was getting sick and was emptying 5-6 salt packets on every bag of McD's french fries, but 21 years later a little salt on rough mornings continues to be a good thing.
I've heard of Addisonians who start every day with a swig of pickle juice... a few Cheetos is nothing in that context.  |

I used to drink pickle juice and olive brine, but haven't had the need for that since I started meds. Are you on fludricort or florinef? |

"CHEETOS® Natural White Cheddar Puffs Cheese Flavored Snacks " My 7yo will be so happy to know this!
And what is it with the pickle juice and olive brine? I like those things and have also simply drank them in my lifetime. the salt? and what do "fludricort or florinef" have to do with that? _________________ son - high ttg - 4/09, pos. biopsy 5/09

The Natural Cheetos have been failing us lately and I think we have three bags here! We are pretty sure my ds has been glutened from them. Oddly enough, on our recent road trip, he had a small bag of regular cheetos and no tummy ache. So I toss the naturals to the birds and chalk it up to a bad run at the frito-lay factory? _________________ son - high ttg - 4/09, pos. biopsy 5/09

That's the link alright. and at the bottom of the page, their CYA statement:
"The above products do not contain gluten; however, they are produced on the same line as our products that do contain gluten. Although the lines are washed between batches, a slight residue may remain on the lines. Individuals who are extremely sensitive may be affected. "
I think my son is pretty sensitive. _________________ son - high ttg - 4/09, pos. biopsy 5/09
