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.

      Severe severe mouth pain

      @Charlie1946, There are many vitamin deficiencies associated with PCOS and Celiac disease and mental health issues. The malabsorption of nutrients caused by Celiac can exacerbate PCOS and mental health issues. Vitamin B 3 Niacin (the kind that causes flushing) improves sebaceous hyperplasia and PCOS. (300 mg/day) Vitamin B 1 Thiamine improves...

      Hi @Charlie1946 I am so sorry to hear you are suffering with this problem. Just a few other thoughts. I had debilitating anxiety prior to my diagnosis.

      @Charlie1946, as an alternative to milk-based protein shakes, let me suggest whey protein. Whey and casein are the two main proteins found in milk but whey doesn't cause issues like casein can for celiacs.

I have also wondered if I have Sjorgen's , but I haven't been to the doctor yet. Can you get the TTFD over the counter? I do have dysphasia and I have lysine I just haven't been good about taking it.

      @trents, Hi, thank you for the reply, I used to be pretty good at taking my vitamins and supplements, because I also have PCOS, I have Barrett's esophagus, it's just too expensive to have it stretched all the time, and I also get kinda panicked when trying to swallow pills because of getting choked a lot before. I think maybe the thrush made it worse, I...

      @Charlie1946, There are many vitamin deficiencies associated with PCOS and Celiac disease and mental health issues.  The malabsorption of nutrients caused by Celiac can exacerbate PCOS and mental health issues. Vitamin B 3 Niacin (the kind that causes flushing) improves sebaceous hyperplasia and PCOS. (300 mg/day) Vitamin B 1 Thiamine improves dysphagia, and with Omega Threes, Sjogren's, and PCOS.     (300 mg/day) The other B vitamins are needed as well because they all work together like an orchestra.   The fat soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K, are needed as well.  Low Vitamin D is common in both PCOS and Celiac and depression.   Deficiencies in Niacin Thiamine, Cobalamine B12, Folate B 9, Vitamin C, and Vitamin D can cause mental health issues.   I wish doctors would check for nutritional deficiencies and gastrointestinal issues before prescribing antidepressants.  My mental health issues didn't get better until my vitamin deficiencies were corrected and a gluten free keto/paleo diet adopted.   Though blood tests are not really accurate, you may want to get tested for deficiencies before supplementing, otherwise you'll be measuring the vitamins you've taken and blood tests will show blood levels that are too high. Yes, Thiamine TTFD and the other vitamins are available over-the-counter.  A B Complex with additional Thiamine TTFD and Niacin made a big difference to my health.  I follow a paleo diet, and make sure I get Omega Threes.  I took high dose Vitamin D to correct my deficiency there.   I've run through the mental health gamut if you would like to talk about your issues.  You can personal message us if you would be more comfortable.   Interesting Reading: Nutritional and herbal interventions for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS): a comprehensive review of dietary approaches, macronutrient impact, and herbal medicine in management https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC12049039/

      Hi @Charlie1946 I am so sorry to hear you are suffering with this problem.   Just a few other thoughts.  I had debilitating anxiety prior to my diagnosis.  I was never admitted to a hospital but thankfully had a lot of support from friends and family, and found a couple of publications contained really helpful advice:  for depression, The Depression Cure: The Six-Step Programme to Beat Depression Without Drugs by Dr Steve Llardi, and for debilitating anxiety, At Last A Life by Paul David.  Both can be ordered online, there is also a website for the latter.  If you are deficient in or have low iron or B12 this can cause or worsen mental health issues.  I am sure my own issues were caused by long-term deficiencies.   If you can get your blood tested, it would be useful.  In the case of iron, make sure you only supplement if you have a deficiency, and levels can be monitored, as too much iron can be dangerous. If you have burning mouth issues, very bad TMJ or neuralgia,  I understand the pain can be managed by the use of a certain class of medication like amitriptyline, which is also used to treat depression.  But there again, it is possible with the correct diet and supplementation these issues might improve? I do hope that you find relief soon. Cristiana

Whey and casein are the two main proteins found in milk but whey doesn't cause issues like casein can for celiacs. Concerning your question about celiac safe mental health facilities, unfortunately, healthcare facilities in general do not have good reputations for being celiac safe. Most celiacs find that they need to depend on family members to advocate for them diligently or bring in food from the outside. Training of staff is inconsistent and there is the issue of turnover and also cross contamination.

I am so glad I found this group and all of you with all this helpful information!! I thought I was going crazy!!  I have sebaceous hyperplasia too- is that related to Celiac?  OH , and I wanted to ask if there is a site where I could find information on mental health issues , with celiac safe facilities??
