Just wanted to let all know that I came across these cookies at a Wegman's Grocery . I bought the Lemon & vanilla ones and they were a hit! Soft and light as air with a very good taste. I know they have several flavors , I tried this one so far. They are not a sandwich cookie but a round cookie .The grandkids loved them. I have to ration them as four of us could eat a bag pretty quickly.

I hear alot of you like the Nana's bars and I love the flavor but Ithink they are so dry and crumbly they could choke someone.I wanted to write to them and ask if they could make them a little moist!!!!

The fortitude is one of the softest I have tried to date.I know when I find them again I will buy more than one pkg. I was 1 1/2 hours from home when I happened upon these.

These may not be new but new to my area ....

Has anyone tried the crackers? I've looked at them several times, but I was so disappointed with the Ener-G crackers that I was hesitant to try them...

I LOVE the Lemon-Vanilla fortitude cookies! I go through a bag every couple of days...very addicting and pretty low in calorie too! I have had the Cinnamon/Orange and the Ginger Spice as well. THose are yummy but I am partial to the Lemon-Vanilla..

The crackers are very much like melba toast...they do not have much flavor but are good if you are looking for a melba toast-like cracker for dipping and or for putting stuff on...

My sister puts a little Pillsbury vanilla frosting on top! I have not tried that yet, but sounds very yummy (I am a sugar addict!)

I did buy a box of the plain casaba crackers and wasn't to impressed. In another section someone said they used them to make thin mint cookies. I couldn't remember what they reminded me of but melba toast is it. Thanks for reminding me as it's been so long I forgot.. They do have a few flavored ones but the store only carried the plain ones... For crackers I love the ranch nut thins. I haven't found to many crackers I love.....

I'm glad there are others who could eat the whole bag besides me, now I won't feel so bad when I do it.

PS If you are doing the thin mint cookies try the BiAglut with the scalloped edges.

      Hello, My 17 yr old daughter was diagnosed with celiac disease 2 yrs ago. She does not have gum disease and no history of cavities. Her dentist is recommending braces for her lower teeth but I read it may worsen gum recession or possibly increase cavity risk which I know are already issues for patients with celiac. Has anyone here had braces and did it cause any problems or issues with gum recession?  Her dentist seemed oblivious that celiac patients are at higher risk of gum disease /cavities. Her bottom teeth are crooked but are pretty hidden even when she smiles. Thank you!!

      This is a common experience across the board with various brands of gluten-free bread products. Prices go up, size goes down. Removal of the egg component may be for the purpose of cost-cutting related to bird flu supply shortages or it may be catering to those with egg allergy/sensitivity, fairly common in the celiac community.

      Living with Coeliac Disease since birth, Bread has always been an issue, never too nice, small slices and always overpriced, But Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread seemed to me to be an exception with it's large uniform 12 x 12cm slices that had the bounce, texture and taste of white bread even after toasting with no issue that it was also Milk Free. Unfortunately Sainsbury's have changed the recipe and have made it 'Egg Free' too and it has lost everything that made the original loaf so unique. Now the loaf is unevenly risen with 8 x 8cm slices at best, having lost it's bounce with the texture dense and cake like after toasting resembling nothing like White Bread anymore. Unsure as to why they have had to make it 'Egg Free' as the price is the same at £1.90 a loaf. Anyone else experiencing the same issue with it? - also any recommendations for White Bread that isn't prescription? / Tesco's / Asda's are ok but Sainsbury's was superior.

      Years  ago a friend and I drove north into Canada hoping to find a ski resort open in late spring,We were in my VW and found a small ski area near a small town and started up this gravelled road up a mountain. We  got about halfway up and got stuck in the mud. We tried everything we could think of but an hour later we were still stuck. Finally a pickup came down the road, laughed at our situation, then pulled the VW free of the mud. We followed him back to the ski area where where he started up the rope ski lift and we had an enjoyable hour of skiing and gave us a shot of aquavit  before we left.It was a great rescue.  In some ways this reminds me of your situation. You are waiting for a rescue and you have chosen medical practitioners to do it now or as soon as possible. As you have found out the med. experts have not learned how to help you. You face years of continuing to feel horrible, frustrated searching for your rescuer to save you. You can break away from from this pattern of thinking and you have begun breaking  away by using some herbs and supplements from doTerra. Now you can start trying some of the suggestions thatother Celiacs have written to your original posts.  You live with other people who eat gluten foods. Cross contamination is very possible. Are you sure that their food is completely separate from their food. It  is not only the gluten grains you need to avoid (wheat, barley, rye) but possibly oats, cows milk also. Whenever you fall back into that angry and frustrated way of thinking get up and walk around for a whild. You will learn ways to break that way of thinking about your problems.  Best wishes for your future. May you enjpy a better life.

      Thanks for responding. I researched further and Lindt Lindor chocolate balls do contain barely malt powder which contains gluten. I was surprised at all of the conflicting information I found when I checked online.
