Glutano Caramel Crunch Cookies

Blech, blech, blech. I didn't like these at all. The "caramel" doesn't resemble caramel at all. It's a slightly gritty white cream. The flavors don't blend at all. Maybe this is a case of a box sitting in a warehouse too long. But, wow, I don't like these at all. Considering it was $5.57 for the box of eight cookies, I thought I'd post a review here.

Anyone else with better opinions of this product to share with the board?

Nancy, I'm so sorry you didn't enjoy them. My mother got me a box for Christmas last year and these were the absolutely most phenomenal cookies I've ever indulged upon. The caramel was definitely not white, though it was slighly butterscotchy in nature. They were my very favorite of all the store bought treats! I hope if you decide to give them a shot again that you have a much better experience.

Guhlia, I'm glad you posted a rave for these. I hate bashing a product so badly, so it's nice to have some balance. It sounds like maybe the ones I got may have been old because that filling was definitely white. I might try them again if they show up in one of the stores around here.

On a side note, I tried your Cheetos chicken nuggets last night. YUM!!! And they were so easy. I'm getting ready to heat some up for my kids for lunch. If they like them, I'm going to be SOOOOO happy!

Nancy, I'm soooooooooo glad you like the nuggets. They were definitely enjoyed in our household too. Now I need to get my act together and make another batch so my husband can try them. He was out of town at the time.

The filling in mine was definitely caramel colored, not white. It had an odd texture though, kind of like the filling used in Goetz caramel rounds maybe. I always like that texture though, pre-gluten-free. Man, now I'm really missing those caramel rounds... They were my absolute favorite candy. Anyone have a good substitution?

      A question - eggs & dairy

      By trents · Posted

      Lactase is the enzyme that breaks down lactose. Lactase is produced in the small intestine. It is not produced in the pancreas. https://cymbiotika.com/blogs/health-hub/understanding-what-organ-produces-most-digestive-enzymes   "Lactase is found in the brush border of the small intestine of humans and other mammals." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactase Studies have shown through micro analysis that the small bowel lining from those with celiac disease may never completely heal, even after years of gluten free living. There is healing at the macro level but not all cellular functions may be restored.

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      By Waterdance · Posted

      Thank you so much for this thorough and informative post. This information does help me to understand my body better. I will commit to a strict gluten free diet. I may not have a diagnosis but I know gluten is causing issues. The worst offender, white bread, causes a reaction within 20-30 minutes. Which I hate because I like sandwiches. Lol. Common sense dictates that it's time to stick to a strict gluten free diet. Thanks for the tips about alternatives. I do cook and bake so it's helpful to know what may work. I appreciate so much all the time and effort you all have put into helping me understand and being supportive. Thank you.

      I went back to consuming dairy after a year of healed villi.  What I didn't know is that along with developing celiac, my pancreas was no longer producing enough enzyme to consume lactose.  My GI said he often sees this with celiac patients.  Some people can go back to dairy with no problems at all and others will develop odd symptoms like ataxia--balance issues, etc.-- for no apparent reason.  It took me a year of suffering to get it all straightened out.  Hope this saves you some time!

      Do you know what the lab's standard range is for the IgA tTG2 result? The Endomysial IgA basically tests for the same antibodies as IgA tTG2 but it uses an older, less sensitive method and the result is positive/negative rather than quantitative. Hence, it is possible to show raised IgA tTG2 antibodies without getting a positive test for Endomysial IgA antibodies.

      She’s eating mostly gluten as far as I know. Think her GP is trying to get her seen fairly quickly
