Gluten-Free Snacks: Labeled Picks for Chips, Rice Cakes, Chocolate and More

Shopping gluten-free means reading a lot of labels. To save you some of that, we pulled together snacks whose packages state that they're gluten free, from salty chips to rice cakes, chocolate and trail mix. Next to each pick we note exactly what the label says, as listed on our product page.

One rule before you shop: recipes and packaging can change, so always check the package you receive, especially if you need to avoid gluten.

Are Fritos gluten free?

Fritos Original Corn Chips are made from just corn, corn and/or canola oil and salt. The package for this 50-pack of 1 oz bags is marked gluten free. The single-serve bags make it easy to pack lunches or stock an office snack bin.

Rice cakes and corn cakes

Thin rice cakes are a good base for toppings or a crunchy snack on their own. Paskesz Golden Harvest Rice Cake Minis are small brown rice rounds in six stay-fresh packs; the label states gluten free and kosher certified (Rabbi Gruber, Rabbi Westheim, Pareve). Lieber's Thin Rice Cakes with sea salt are labeled wheat free, vegan and gluten free, and Lieber's Crispy Thin Corn Cakes are labeled gluten-free. Browse more in our rice cakes and corn thins aisle.

Dried fruit and trail mix

Ocean Spray Reduced Sugar Craisins come in a large 43 oz resealable bag; the label states gluten-free and peanut-free. Gourmet Nut Power Up Mega Omega trail mix combines walnuts, almonds, dried mango, cranberries and pumpkin seeds, and its package says gluten-free and vegan (contains tree nuts).

Tips for gluten-free snacking

• Look for the words on the bag: "gluten free" or a certification mark, not just a corn or rice ingredient list.
• Check flavors one by one: one flavor of a brand can be gluten free while another isn't.
• Stock up on what works: once you find a favorite, a multi-pack saves trips.
