Can anyone recommend a favorite gluten-free cracker? Preferably something non-celiacs will enjoy too.

Lots of non- gluten-free people serve these. They are much cheaper at SAMs Club or Costco. My husbands company serves them at functions.

Crunchmaster's Sea Salt crackers. (and there are other flavors, too!)

 

My aunt and 2 best  friends ( all are  WEs--wheat eaters) love love love them and eat them regularly 

after having them at my house.

 

Addy loves the Breton crackers, but she will tell you all about it shortly...... :D

 

P.S. (Good lawd, I just approved this post and answered it, quickly, but Karen beat me to it...

how do you do that, K?) LOL

Breton. BRETON!!!!

 

Omg... they're just like regular, gluteny crackers. Either flavor is awesome, but right now the only flavor I can get locally is the herb ones. I have had a chance to try the flax ones though and they are equally awesome.

 

Great, now I have to open a new box because I finished one yesterday. I'm going to get so fat since they started making these. :ph34r: Also, L2 loves these also, so I'm not in bad company at all. B)  (And I think Karen probably snuck in because crackers are a very important topic, not to be trifled with so everyone rushed right over!)

Indeed! This is a most important discussion! My gluten eating hub loved those plain Breton ones!

My husband keeps asking for a cracker if I eat them while he's home. I always act like I'm terribly put out when I give him one.

I second (third?) the Crunchmaster sea salt crackers. Even my fussy non-celiac kids like them.

I guess I could add that I also do like Crunchmaster crackers. They're good, they're just not my favorite.

Mary's Gone Crackers? Pretty good.

I love the Van's cheese cracker - tastes like goldfish!!!! Hubs and kid (ge's) eat them.

Crunch master Italian cheese is pretty good.

I like the Diamond Almond crackers - sea salt.

Found a "water cracker" at whole foods that was wonderfully flat and crunchy for cheeses. Of course, cant remember the name...

I really like the Diamond Nut Thins- Pecan crackers.  Really good with peanut butter.

Scharr.  Taste just like Ritz.  Only problem is that they crumble easily.  I also had a recipe to make crackers and they had a little grated onion in them.  Sorry, I don't think I have that cookbook any more  But they were really good!

I just got a box and…well…now I'm short one box.  :D

Those Van's cheese thingers are very very bad (for thigh growth...that is! )

I inhaled an entire box one day and realized they are very dangerous to have around. :D

I know. The van's cheese crackers taste like goldfish and the gluten-free goldfish taste like Cheetos.

Funny.

BRETON!!!! I am with Addy on this. All others I have tried taste plastic and artificial. Breton crackers are light and buttery and taste every bit as good as their counterparts. In fact, other than homemade, they are the only ones I will eat. GO, BRETON!

If you email Breton they'll tell you where you can buy them locally. They boxes aren't huge, there are only 720 calories if you inhale the whole box which totally leaves room for a whole other meal and maybe even gelato. Not that I have a box on my desk or anything. :ph34r:

Now I am laughing because you can't say we don't know how to answer a simple question like "what's your favorite....."

 

we nailed it.

 

OP...Rosies   ...still with us? how'd we do?? :lol:

I'd like to point out that I'm the one who is in the best company on this. I don't think anyone is going to dispute who has the best taste around here, and it's just chance that I happen to be on board with her on this one.  B)

Well, since that obviously isn't enough to send a Christmas package back over the border I guess I'll have to spend it all on crackers. You'll make me fat! :P

If you're talking about a cracker that tastes like a saltine then my vote is hands down Glutino Table Crackers.

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      Take it easy! I was just prompting you for some clarification. In the distillation process, the liquid is boiled and the vapor descends up a tube and condenses into another container as it cools. What people are saying is that the gluten molecules are too large and heavy to travel up with the vapor and so get left behind in the original liquid solution...

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      No they do not contradict each other. Just like frying oil can be cross contaminated even though the oil doesn't contain the luten protein. The same is the same for a distilled vinegar or spirit which originally came from a gluten source. Just because you don't understand, doesn't mean you can tell me that my sentences contradict each other. Do you have a...

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      The reason that it triggers your dermatitis herpetiformis but not your celiac disease is because you aren't completely intolerant to gluten. The celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis genes are both on the same chronometer. Dermatitis herpetoformus reacts to gluten even if there's a small amount of cross contamination while celiac gene may be able to tolerate...

      Hidden Gluten in distilled vinegar

      It isn't a conjecture. I have gotten glitened from having some distilled white vinegar as a test. When I talked to some of my scientists friends, they confirmed that for a mall percentage of people, distilled white vinegar is a problem. The cross contamination isn't from wheat glue in a cask. While yhe gluten protein is too large to pass through the distillation...

      Take it easy! I was just prompting you for some clarification.  In the distillation process, the liquid is boiled and the vapor descends up a tube and condenses into another container as it cools. What people are saying is that the gluten molecules are too large and heavy to travel up with the vapor and so get left behind in the original liquid solution. Therefore, the condensate should be free of gluten, no matter if there was gluten in the original solution. The explanation contained in the second sentence I quoted from your post would not seem to square with the physics of the distillation process. Unless, that is, I misunderstood what you were trying to explain.

Just because you don't understand, doesn't mean you can tell me that my sentences contradict each other. Do you have a PhD in biochemistry or friends that do and access to a lab?  If not, saying you don't understand is one thing anything else can be dangerous to others.

The celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis genes are both on the same chronometer. Dermatitis herpetoformus reacts to gluten even if there's a small amount of cross contamination while celiac gene may be able to tolerate a some gluten or cross contamination. It just depends on the sensitivity of the gene.

While yhe gluten protein is too large to pass through the distillation process, after the distillation process, the vinegar is still cross contaminated. Please don't dismiss or disregard the small group of people who are 100^ gluten intolerant by saying things are conjecture. Just because you haven't done thr research or aren't as sensitive to gluten doesn't mean that everyone is like you.
