Glutino Crackers


Tina B

Recommended Posts

Does anyone else love Glutino crackers? They are my favorite. Love the shape and texture similar to a Ritz. My big complaint is the packaging. They are packaged in 2 pouches inside a box. EVERY TIME I buy them at least a third of them are broken. They need to package them in sleeves like Ritz. I sent a message on their website under "contact us". If anyone else is annoyed by this here is the website. Maybe if a bunch of us complain we can get the packaging changed.

That annoys me also but bear in mind that if they change into that type of packaging the price will likely go up. Either people or a new machine will need to put them into the sleeves and they will need to either make or purchase the sleeves themselves which would then still need to go into another foil or plastic pouch before going into the box.

I would sooooo pay extra not to have half of them broken. Now I'm paying for half a box of crumbs.

I sprinkle crumbs (of any crackers) on soups and salads for extra crunch. Other people use them for coating foods. At least they wouldn't be wasted.

I realize that. That isn't the point. I don't waste them either but am paying for a box of whole crackers.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      How do I contact someone at celiac.com concerning the cessation of my weekly e-newsletter? I had been receiving it regularly for years. When I tried to sign-up on the website, my email was not accepted. I tried again with a new email address and that was rejected as well. Thank you in advance!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.
