This site has the glutino pizza and sesame sticks as well as the glutino blueberry/apple/chocoate cereal bars. Normal high prices but REASONABLE shipping. I can't find these two products in any store near me... though I've asked numerous times for them to be ordered... They are very good products. If you can't find them in your local stores, I recommend you get them from this site. Worth the money.

I've gotten those at both Whole Foods and Life Grocery. If your local stores don't carry them, maybe they can get them in. They are really good dipped in spaghetti sauce

I haven't tried the pizza ones, but love the sesame ones with Thai Kitchen soups :P I'll have to try the pizza ones next shopping day. We can get them here in Western Canada at 'Save on Foods' for those of you in the area.

We all like the sticks. I wish they'd make them in the shape of goldfish. They're practically the same thing tastewise. My wholefoods is the worst in the country. I ask and ask and they NEVER get in Chebe, glutino products, or Kinnikinnick products. Some K products once in a blue moon is supposed to keep me from b%$@#ing...but just made me give up. The more I read here about how you all can find products at your wholefoods stores...the more ticked off I get about how crappy my wholefoods is.

Vydor- the sticks are great. When I would run out of alternatives, I'd sprinkle cheese on top of them, bake for a few minutes and serve them to my Celiac kid with a side of sauce to dip them in. Plus, he likes them as his "bread" when he has spaghetti. I put a few on the side of his plate and he dips them in his sauce. I haven't found them in a year. We're so excited to get them again. The cereal bars are tasty too.... just pricey. Shipping at this site I posted above is very reasonable. $7.50 for my order. The gluten free mall was $20 !!!!!!

I don't hate anything I've tried because I'm just happy to be able to eat some things w/out getting sick. :D

I know I would've hated most of the stuff if I'd tried it back when I was healthy. I even eat Amaranth cereal...which is not tasty but I still get happy to eat it.

I'm very picky about what I eat. It was a waste of money and had a very bad after taste. There are plenty of other gluten free options.

So, are the Glutino cereal bars any good???? A local store here recently started carrying alot of Glutino products, I've only tried the shortcake cookies, but those were very good.

I wanted to try the breakfast bars, but at $6 a box, I thought I'd ask here first before I bought. I hate spending that kind of money for something no one will eat!

Oh, and Jnkmnky......you're gonna hate me. This store also carries the gluten free kit kat bars, lol. I told dh we can never move, this store makes gluten-free eating way too easy. I have never had to order anything online!

We have a store in the valley that carries the gluten-free Kit Kat bars :P pricy though, so I just treat myself now and then.

Our Save on Foods has a manager that just handles the dietary products. If you have one, bug them for the Glutino products, the warehouse has them! If your store is too small to have a dietary manager, pick one manager and talk to him or her, every time you go in. It works really well. Remember, a good natured bugging works better than an impatient, angry bugging. Just cheerfully ask if any of it has arrived yet EVERY time you go in. :lol:

It's not even funny how lame my WholeFoods is. I have 2 wholefoods, 2 henry's, 1 boney's, 1 trader joe's, 1 jimbo's AND NO GLUTINO products at any. I mean, c'mon! I have to order Kinnikinnick on line as well as Chebe because none carry the products. ONCE in a while I can find kinnikinnick breads but never the flavor we want. And maybe three times a year, they get a couple bags of donuts in. I can't even think about it or it'll ruin my day.....

Ok. The cereal bars are very good. We put cream cheese on top and it's like having an open-faced bagel. The price is just plain criminal. I even wrote the company and told them the price was too high. I got an email back from a very rude person who told me if I couldn't afford it, it was my fault. She was soooo rude. The thing is, I'm not financially challenged, I'm just cheap. :D I was raised on welfare in the 70s and have "issues" as a result.... my kids tell me I'm Mr. Krabs from SpongeBob. Anyway, I wrote her back a slamming good letter and never heard back. :ph34r: I hope someone find the secret recipe for those cereal bars and posts it. Even I'd bake them rather than give my money to Glutino.

I know what you mean about stores and avalibility!! We have a Kroger that just started carrying a few Pamela's mixes, Bob's Rice Flour and EnviroKids. I've been talking to the guy over the SMALL organic dept. and he said he would be on the look out for some more foods. Of course I live in an area that's about 10 yrs. behind everyone else. :blink: Dr.'s in my area aren't even testing for celiac disease much at all. I'm hoping to start a support group to help raise awarness. I am able to order through a national co-op and this has been a God Sent!! :)

gluten-free Kit Kat Bars......who makes these? I would love to have something like this.

I was planing on ordering some snack/nutritional bars and I was wondering if you all think the Glutino Bars are the best?

Thanks!! :)

The Kit Kat bars are actually called "Big Break" and although they are a gluten free copy, they taste exactly like the original. I tested this by giving a gluten person a piece and their favorite bar was Kit Kat. Unfortunately two days later she brought me one thinking I could eat it :lol:

Glutano makes the Break Bars. They are great. The shipping from the gluten free mall is too high. Try to find them someplace else if you can. The hazelnut chocolate bars are delish as well. The chocolate O's are good but hard. Leave the bag open for a day or two to soften them up.

Shirley- is that an American Eskimo dog?

Guest Viola
Guest Viola

No ... she is a "Shiba Inu" A Japanese hunting dog. The American Eskimo dogs are pure white, but still with the curled tail. They are both in the " Northern Spitz" species of breeding, so have similarities. They are a little different in their purpose of breeding. The American Eskie is bred to be a family dog, and is good in Obedience and very good with children. The Shiba Inu is bred to be a killer type hunter. They actually kill the game for the hunter .. such as grouse, rabbit etc. Because they loose interest as soon as the game is dead, they do not damage the meat. They kill very quickly by breaking the neck and crunching through the spine. Not a nice thought, but reality. Because they hunt independant of their human hunter they are NOT good in Obedience. It has taken me five years to put a CGN Title on her, and I haven't yet put the first leg of her celiac disease, although she has earned points and the judges have told me that she is still the best trained Shiba Inu they've met :lol: She is very good with people, and when raised with children they make a good family dog. When not raised with children, they are still safe, as they are too quick for a child to get their hands on them :lol: Sheba is extremely well socialized and does parades and mall doggy education days, so although we don't have young children around, she is very good with them. You can never let a Shiba Inu off lead as they would simply consider the neighbours cat, guinea pig, chicken or what ever, normal prey.

      Vaccines

      By Dawn Meyers · Posted

      Hi I have celiac disease and the dermatitis herpetiformis rash Also other autommune diseases.  I have had bad side effects to all the vaccines I have had and now my Doctor wants me to have the pneumonia vaccine.  I am concerned because of some of the bad side effects I have had in the past example Hep B after shot couldn't  move arm for several months.  Flu shot and COVID was sick right after shot. Told not to get anymore. My lung is inflamed and have a cough I can't seem to get rid of. Very concerned 😟.

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Manaan2,  I'm so happy to hear you're going to try thiamine and magnesium!  Do let us know the results!   You may want to add a B 50 Complex with two meals of the day to help boost absorption.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins which are all water soluble.   When supplementing magnesium, make sure to get sufficient calcium.  Calcium and magnesium need to be kept in balance.  If you choose a calcium supplement, take two hours apart from magnesium as they compete for absorption.  Take Calcium with Vitamin D.  Vitamin D helps calm the immune system.   For pain, I use a combination of thiamine, B12 Cobalamine, and Pyridoxine B6.  These three vitamins together have analgesic effects.  My preferred brand is "GSG 12X Takeda ALINAMIN EX Plus Vitamin B1 B6 B12 Health Supplementary from Japan 120 Tablets".  Alinamin is another form of thiamine.  It really is excellent at relieving my back pain from crushed vertebrae without side effects and no grogginess.   Look into the low histamine version of the Autoimmune Protocol Duet (Dr. Sarah Ballentyne, a Celiac herself, developed it.)  It really helps heal the intestines, too.  It's like a vacation for the digestive system.  Add foods back gradually over several weeks after feeling better.   I'm so happy to have pointed the way on your journey!  Let us know how the journey progresses! P. S. Add a Potassium supplement, too.  Potassium is another electrolyte, like magnessium, that we need.

      @knitty kitty I can't thank you enough!  My husband and I already started looking into those supplements.  We definitely plan to give it a try.  We've been against the Miralax since it was originally advised by PCP, but because of the level of pain she experienced on a daily basis, we decided to try it.  We've made many attempts to gradually decrease but due to her pain and related symptoms, we've kept her on it while trying all sorts of other dietary adjustments pre and post diagnosis specific to food; so far none of those efforts have made a significant difference.  I will definitely share how she's doing along the way!

      Opinions on my test results/symptoms

      By BIg Nodge · Posted

      Hi, I have recently embarked on the gluten-free journey. I have what to me seems like a somewhat confusing set of test results and symptoms. I have been impressed by the accumulated knowledge and thoughtfulness as I browse this forum, so I figured I'd make a post to see if anyone can offer any insight. I know there are many posts like this from new users, so I have tried to do my baseline research first and not ask super obvious questions.  I'm 43, overall very healthy. No history of gluten sensitivity or really any of the classic GI symptoms. About three years ago I started to experience intermittent bouts of fatigue, chills/cold intolerance, and shortness of breath/air hunger (sometimes feels like a hollowness in my chest, hard to describe). The symptoms over time have become fairly significant, though not debilitating, I am able to exercise regularly and am fairly physically active, continue to perform well at work. But for example I have gone from someone who consistently ran hot, was always cranking the a/c, to someone who wears a down vest inside at work in winter and get chills if the a/c even blows on me in summer. I get tired and lose energy even when getting decent amounts of sleep, and have to have my wife take over on long drives that I could previously handle with no problems. More generally when I am experiencing these symptoms they seem to crowd out space in my mind for focusing on my family, my hobbies/activities etc, I sort of withdraw into myself.   I happened to be experiencing these symptoms during an annual physical with my PCP a few years ago, he observed post nasal drip and suggested it was allergies and that I treat it with claritin. At first it seemed to respond to claritin (though not zyrtex), but over time I became unsatisfied with that answer. There didn't seem to be any seasonal rhyme or reason to my symptoms, and I felt like I was on an endless loop of taking claritin, then stopping, not being sure if it was even making a difference. I did eventually get allergy tests and found modest allergies to dust and pollen, which didn't feel like a smoking gun.  I then started seeing a natural medicine doctor who was much more willing to explore my symptoms via testing. The first thing that came back abnormal was elevated thyroid peroxidase antibodies/TPOs, 137 IU/mL vs a reference range of <9. At the same time my thyroid panel showed normal thyroid hormone levels. So it appears my immune system is attacking my thyroid even though it is working fine. I got a thyroid ultrasound at the time, it was clear, but with some abnormalities such that they suggested I get is scanned again in a year. These are certainly risk factors for a thyroid autoimmune disease, though my thyroid seems to be working fine for now.  From here my doctor considered celiac due to the murky thyroid/celiac links, so we did a panel. Results were as follows: TT IGA <1 U/ml, TT IGG <1 U/ml, deamidated gliadin IGA 24.6 U/ml, deamidated gliadin IGG <1 U/ml, IGAs 170 mg/dL. Readings greater than 15 considered high by my lab for the first four, my IGAs are within reference range. So basically just the deamidated IGA popped, but my IGAs are normal. I also notice on the tests that my thyroglobulin was high, 86.7 ng/ml vs a range of 2.8 - 40.9.  My doctor suggested that it certainly wasn't conclusive for celiac, but it was possible, and likely that I have some sort of gluten sensitivity. She suggested going gluten free and seeing how I felt as opposed to doing a biopsy. The best theory I can come up with is perhaps I am a silent celiac or just have a gluten sensitivity that doesn't produce immediate GI symptoms, but is still doing damage and over time has caused leaky gut. So now gluten is getting into my blood, and my immune system is attacking it but also mistakingly attacking my thyroid.  So that's what I did, went gluten free in October. It's been about four months, and I am really not feeling any difference. I still get the same symptoms that come and go. My bowel movements may be a bit more regular, but it was never a major issue before so I would consider that a minor improvement. I know that it can take a while to see improvements, and I am going to remain gluten-free and see how I feel. But I am definitely questioning whether I really understand what is going on, and am open to any thoughts or suggestions from the forum. Sometimes I wish I just went ahead with the biopsy before going gluten-free. While I would certainly be down to start drinking IPAs again ahead of a biopsy, you know, for science, I feel like at this point I would be throwing away four months of work and am better off staying the course and seeing what happens. But I'm really not sure.  I know there is a lot of thyroid knowledge on these boards, along with the celiac expertise, so I'm curious if this resonates with anyone's experience. And I'm interested in what sort of timelines people have experienced in terms of feeling improvements for some of these non-GI symptoms like chills, SOB, brain fog etc. Thanks in advance.

      Testing positive for antibodies, are there visible changes to the colon that could be seen without a biopsy?

      By cameo674 · Posted

      Does it taste like black licorice?  It said it was chewable.  I do not like that flavor.     Since the burn at the back of my throat is there everyday, I usually only take something when it is unbearable and keeping me from ADL especially sleep.
