Would A Little Salt Hurt?

So far I have tried about 5 different snack crackers and I have yet to find one that tastes good. None of them seem to have any salt in them as they are very bland. One of my guilty pleasures was a sleeve of Ritz crackers and a 16oz. bar of SHARP cheddar cheese, OH YUM!! I tried the Glutino brand cheddar flavored crackers, I think they forgot to put the cheddar in the batter, and these too seem to lack any hint of salt. Schar makes something akin to goldfish which I tried tonight, very little cheddar flavor and again not a hint of salt. At least the first ones I tried (the shiny poker chips) had some flavor.  <_< On a bright note I found a can of Progresso Potato, Broccoli and cheese soup today and it was very good.

Try the Van's cheese cracker. Look like Cheezits-taste like goldfish.

I second the Van's cheese crackers.  My favorite when I eat crackers.  Other ones you may like are the gluten-free Breton crackers- they are really good, large and round good for putting things like cheese on them, dunno about a whole pound, though :P  Goldfish puffs are gluten-free, they have that good intense artificially cheesy flavor, like a cross between cheetos and goldfish.  They are in a big bag versus the regular goldfish packaging.

Breton. Totally Breton. They have the texture very like a Ritz cracker (no, I'm not messing with you and I didn't forget what a Ritz is really like in 2 years) and have amazing flavor. I eat them all the time with cheese and meat. I have a box next to my desk so I grabbed one out and while there isn't a ton of salt, if I hold it up in the light I can see the salt crystals glittering. While they could sort of stand a teensy bit more salt, you don't notice the lack when you're having it with cheese because the cheese more than makes up for it. They're also plenty good on their own too.

I am a fan of the vans cheese crackers as well. They are really good with some cream cheese as a dip.

Mission corn tortillas.  They make triangluar ones and also round ones.

Yeah, making plain cheese nachos is pretty easy.  Just throw down some gluten-free corn chips (easy to find) and put some cheese on top and nuke them for 30 sec at a time til melted.  That would definitely satisfy the salt and cheese craving, although I like my nachos with meat, beans, guac, and salsa, too!

There's a brand of cracker called 'Absolutely Gluten Free', they're made from tapioca and

potato starch so they're actually entirely grain free. I find the texture to be like a Saltines,

and they definitely have some salt on top, I really like them!

Fake Ritz crackers:

Put melted butter in a spray bottle. Lightly spray Glutino cheese crackers. Sprinkle with a little salt. Bake in a medium hot oven a few minutes (don't brown). This tastes a lot like Ritz as I remember them from 6 years ago.

Adalaide, as you know, I completely agree.  :D  THE best.

      Intolerance to certified gluten-free pasta may be due to additives or stabilizers included in the pasta's ingredients, even among the top brands. It's important to check thoroughly before purchasing and consuming; you can find the actual ingredients listed in the detailed component descriptions on Amazon.

      Thank you for this information and your post. I have tried just about every diet there is. I have been experimenting with diet for years and years. I am a vegan, so the diet you mentioned is not an option. Fasting always works for me. Probably because I am detoxing and not feeding candida or parasites. Meat eaters have a higher prevalence of parasites, just so you know. I have a feeling that every time I break out on probiotics it's due to some kind of war with my gut biome. I definitely need to find a system of flushing out my gut so that the probiotics don't have to fight as hard to populate.

      I'm unsure if sommersby cider is likely to have cross contamination issues, given its made by a beer company. Does anyone have any thoughts on this? I'm assuming wine generally is ok, as it's bottled in a vineyard, but what about other (ostensiblygluten free) liquors?

      @BoiseNic Have you tried the Autoimmune Protocol Diet?  This Paleo diet cuts out most everything except meat, veggies and some fruits.  By cutting out all the carbohydrates, especially processed ones, the carbohydrate loving bacteria and fungi like Candida get starved out and die off.  After that, taking probiotics to help repopulate the gut is beneficial.  The new strains of bacteria don't have to fight the established unhealthy yeasts and bad bacteria which causes a rise in histamine levels which can make one feel sick.   Certain vitamins help keep bad bacteria and fungi at bay.  Thiamine is one.  Antibiotics can deplete Thiamine stores.  The Gluten free diet can be low in Thiamine and the other vitamins and minerals needed for healthy skin and digestive tract.  Vitamin C, Vitamin D, zinc, and Niacin B 3 are important to skin health.  Niacin is especially helpful in Dermatitis Herpetiformis.  I like the kind that flushes (Nicotinic Acid - not the same as nicotine in cigarettes).  The flushing gets less and less the longer it's taken, but Niacinamide which doesn't cause flushing can be taken instead.     Here's an interesting article.  Compare the bacteria mentioned in the article with your Skinesa and then with the Visbiome probiotics.   The Role of Probiotics in Skin Health and Related Gut–Skin Axis: A Review https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10385652/ Visbiome https://www.visbiome.com/collections/all/products/visbiome-capsules

      The short answer is if it hurts, don't do it. Yogurt may help sooth your gut and repopulate it with benificial bacteria.  I prefer whole milk yogurt because it is not processed and the no fat yogurt is processed dehydrated milk powder with guar gums and water added to make it mouth feel like fat.  Especially in early healing there may be other foods you cannot tolerate for a while.
