Kozy Shack Puddings
I was sent three products from Kozy Shack, Chocolate Mint, Chocolate Hazelnut, and Tapioca pudding—all gluten-free. The Tapioca and Chocolate Mint are sweetened with Splenda and the Hazelnut with sugar and natural flavors. The products with the Splenda left us with an aftertaste in our mouths after the first spoonful. They were creamy as a […]

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 […]

Luckily, […]
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 […]
Pharmacies and Gluten in Medication
Gluten is used in many medications as an excipient, so it is important for people with celiac disease to check with the manufacturer to be sure that each medication they take is gluten-free. Some patients may ask for their pharmacist’s help in reading the list of ingredients or contacting the manufacturer directly. It’s also important […]
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 […]

A cookie story and a family story is the story of MI-DEL. Mr. Samuel Midel started off with creating healthy cookies in Chicago. Originally, he created sugar-free cookies at home and for his two daughters, and these cookies were always eaten up so quickly he knew he was onto something. Mr. Midel wanted to […]
To Be Celiac or to Become Celiac?
This topic seems to be really complicated, and each body is unique. Lisa is part of a listserv for celiacs and asked this question, are you already celiac or do your become celiac. She wanted the general opinions of people writing in and compiled this and has allowed me to share it with you all. […]
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. […]
