Wheat starch theoretically has no wheat proteins, it is only the starch. But, how can you be sure all protiens were removed during processing? I don't chance it.

Snacks:

Bananas
apples
potato chips
corn chips
most EnviroKids (from Nature's Path) cereals
some Nature's Path cereals
pineapple
oranges
baby carrots (not age appropriate, you could shred them)
homemade cookies (check the special needs forum for recipes)
quinoa
amaranth
grits
eggs
sausage (Beeler's makes a wonderful all natural sausage without nitra(i?)tes)
fruit in general
raw veggies like broccoli, lettuce, etc


My entire family has intolerances to food. So, we avoided some of the stuff we already had intolerances to. But, I did not know my dad had celiac (diagnosed at 3 but told outgrew it, but you can't outgrow it, explains a lot about him). We never avoided wheat. In fact, I baked several loaves of bread a week. But, it turns out Samantha, and myself, probabaly have celiac. www.celiac.com has a lot of information. There is also a Canadian celiac website I actually find better but I can find the link. www.gfcfdiet.com has a lot of info about avoiding gluten and dairy. We are dairy and gluten free.
