We love to make a ‘snack mix’ for the girls, whether for breakfast, travelling, school, or just for an afternoon snack. We throw in some Chex, peanuts, gluten free pretzels, and raisins or Craisins. While you would think most fruit would be gluten free, you do need to look carefully, as wheat can be used [...]
After the recent Gluten Free Fair at Whole Foods, we stocked up on a variety of different gf items. We picked up another box of S’moreables gf graham crackers. S’morables, made by the bread mix company kinnikinnick, provide Celiacs with a good tasting, good textured graham cracker for smores or for any other reason. As [...]
Long time readers no doubt remember some of our early posts regarding the trouble we experience trying to read labels. For the most part, manufacturers continue to improve their labels to list the allergens (the big 6 or the big 8 most common) right on the package. Three or four years ago this was non-existent. [...]
People always reminisce about candy dish their grandparents kept full when they were younger. I remember a plastic tree that each season my grandma would put corresponding colored fruit drops on. Now my folks keep Swedish Fish (yes, gluten free) in a dish for my girls. But my fondest memories are of my Granny’s dish [...]
Anyone pick up on that quote? Famous from Disney’s version of Alice in Wonderland. So now we will take a look at mustard. I could save you some time and say, don’t eat any of it, but that’s not fair. I just do not care for it. I do know many like it on a [...]
How we LOVE Betty Crocker! We reported recently about their new website, focusing on their gluten free products (http://www.liveglutenfreely.com/), which is quite a large step for a major company. They report over 200 products as gluten free. They also began to really label their products, when gluten free, even on all their frostings. We recently [...]
With the holidays upon us (like you wouldn’t know here at our blog!), you can find many resources online. For anything from recipes to gf candy to holiday meals, the web continues to be a Celiac’s number one resource. We stumbled across a website recently that, while is not extensive, provides some common sense ideas [...]
Got to love when we find a wide variety of gluten free food. This one is exciting, as this company produces a wide-variety of candy. Received this email when inquiring as to which Ferrara Pan candies were gluten free: Ferrara products contain only Corn Gluten. Ferrara products contain no wheat, oats, rye or barley. Below [...]
Short of Rice Chex and the Envirokids cereals, many choices do not exist for people on the gluten free diet. Recently I came across a website where you can make your own custom made cereals with a variety of flakes, fruits, and nuts. Shortly after that, we received an email from Hajo, who runs CustomChoiceCereal.com, [...]
We always like to find other, quick things to put in lunches or pack for snacks. I went to Walgreens the other day, looking for one such thing. A few months ago, I stumbled across the Florida’s Natural Fruit Stripes and Nuggets. Yum! A large bag of orange and strawberry individually wrapped packs of fruit. [...]
