I'm not in Europe, but I will do my best...

Canola oil is a vegetable cooking oil.

You can find more about Chex cereals on the Chex homepage. I've heard that Chex isn't available over there at all, but basically, it's a plain rice or corn cereal, with no whole grain in it, and no other IBS triggers (fat, dairy, high fructose corn syrup).

All-purpose flour is a general *white* baking flour (not whole wheat).

Corn syrup... I'm not sure about that one.

Cornstarch... I've sometimes heard it referred to as corn flour (but not to be confused with cornmeal). It's a very fine white "flour" that's used in small amounts to thicken sauces.

As for the crackers, any plain cracker that is NOT whole grain (whole wheat, seven grain, etc), doesn't contain dairy products, and is fat-free, can substitute for the American crackers on the list. I'm sure someone will be along with some specific suggestions, but in case it takes a while, I thought I'd at least give you a general idea so you can see if maybe you already have something that fits the bill.

By the way, welcome to the boards!
