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?

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents   . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood test that day. i just got my results back and it indicates celiac disease i think 😭   im honestly happy bc now i KNOW and i can go gluten free. and i am SO MAD at this doctor for dismissing me for a simple blood test that wouldn’t have cost her anything !!!!!!!!!!! im sorry, im so emotional right now, i have been sick my whole life and never knew why, i feel so much better already   my results from labcorp:   Celiac Ab tTG TIgA w/Rflx Test Current Result and Flag Previous Result and Date Units Reference Interval t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 01 28 High U/mL 0-3 Negative 0 - 3 Weak Positive 4 - 10 Positive >10 Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten sensitive enteropathy. Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 01 245 mg/dL 87-352

      Thank you this really helped.

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong.   yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.
