Grace Island Specialty Foods Bakes Cheese Crisps
Grace Island Specialty Foods has a variety of gluten-free Baked Cheese Crisps. Each has a different flavor not due to just spices, but to the unique cheese selection in each cracker. These crackers are paper-thin, oval in shape, and each flavor offers its own recipe, often with sesame seeds added. We liked these crackers but […]
Celiac Genetic Testing
As an author, researcher, and gluten-free and celiac advocate, I’m always on the lookout for cutting-edge tools and technology. What’s caught my attention is the gluten-intolerance home testing kit which makes use one-hundred percent accurate genetic testing for its simple positive-or-negative result. One in every 100 Americans suffers from celiac disease, the […]

Gluten-Free Websites: An Invaluable Resource
Celiac disease (also spelled coeliac) is an autoimmune reaction to gluten, a protein that’s found in wheat, barley, and rye — the only autoimmune disease funded in its research and by the U.S. government, even though an estimated 3 million Americans have it. Left untreated, the disease can cause severe health conditions and complications, but […]

Bionaturae- Amazing Gluten Free Company
Bionaturae (bee-oh-na-too-ray) is a family-owned organic company located in Italy. It translates to mean “organic nature.” We’ve tested their gluten-free pasta as well as their spreads, organic tomato sauce (in glass jars), balsamic vinegars, olive oils, and nectars. Each product we tested conveyed life an Italian organic farm. The products are pure. You simply taste […]

The storefront is the […]
Food Company Review: simplyrice™
Simplyrice™ rice crisps are gluten-free snacks with a kick. Each flavor is really a taste to be experienced. I love organic brown jasmine rice and this is the base for simply rice crackers. They have only four ingredients and all are 100% organic, according to the company: brown jasmine rice, sunflower oil, sea salt, and […]
Smart Treat – A Terrific Gluten-Free Company
(I am not paid or given any incentive to write one way or the other. What you are about to read is from me to you, my honest opinion.) Each Gluten-Free bite was unique, wholesome and had our taste buds asking for more. My Florida field testers and I had quite a reaction to the […]
Gorge Delights – Gluten Free Treats
Gorge Delights Just Fruit bars were a pleasant surprise to my taste buds after testing so many bars over the previous weeks. The bars, one for one, had the flavor of pure, bursting ripe fruit energy and nothing else. I then read the ingredients list, and confirming my hunch, I found the bars are 100% […]
Freeda Vitamins Are Gluten-Free
You’ve probably heard me speaking out about the importance of celiacs taking a gluten-free multivitamin regularly. Not only does a vitamin supplement help the body heal after the damaging effects of ingesting gluten, but it is a necessity on the gluten-free diet because gluten-free food products are generally not enriched with vitamins, especially the B vitamins. Lucky […]

Beanitos Bean Chips
Beanitos is the first corn-free, potato-free chip that we’ve tasted yet. We weren’t sure what to expect out of the two flavors at hand, Black Bean Chips and Pinto Bean and Flax Chips, but they were really good. The Beanitos are light in texture, like a thin potato chip, and have a light grainy yet […]
Kaia Foods
Hearty, nutritious, earthy, and unique are words I’d use to describe all of Kaia Foods’ products. Kaia (rhymes with “papaya”) is from the Sanskrit word for “body,” kaya, yet the owners spelled it like Gaia, for the Greek goddess of the earth. Hence, body and earth come together to depict the essence of Kaia Foods. […]

The combined notes are really the only way to do a summary […]
