Hi guys,

Sorry if this has already been posted (i have been very MIA lately b/c i was studying for the bar and now just started my new job), but i was at Costco today and they now sell Lara Bars there! Thats the first time i have ever seen a gluten-free product there, so i just had to share!

Oooohhhh,

My mom is thinking of joining again. I might just have to have her buy some. Not worth it for me to join.

This is good news.....I have been wanting to try them. Is there more than one flavor? what is your favorite?

Guest melannen

I saw them too! I think it was a pack of 3 flavors...I only remember one: Cherry Pie (I remember because I was so excited as it's my favorite!)

There are three flavors in their variety pack- chocolate coconut chew, apple pie and cherry pie. My mom (non-celiac) tried the apple pie one today and LOVED it- and she is very picky about bars b/c she doesnt like sweet things. I think they are good, but i have to say my absolute favorite is Clif Nectar bars-- i love those. But still, its totally exciting to find a gluten free bar at Costco!

I didn't think Larabars were gluten-free... hmmmm they used to be one of my favorite snacks... (admitedly I haven't checked them, I just assumed something THAT GOOD couldn't be gluten-free! LOL!)

NEVERMIND!!!! LOL!!!! I was thinking of something else... Of course Larabars are gluten-free... DUH!!!!! (can you tell I'm not awake yet this morning???)

I'm going to have to look for them this week. I love Lara bars (and so do the kids). I keep a couple in the diaper bag just in case someone gets hungry. I keep telling my mom that I want to try to buy them by the box....now I can ;)

The apple is yummy

They bother my stomach, for some reason, but I loved the Banana Cookie and the Pecan Pie flavors. The Ginger one is very good, also. :)

Did I just get a bad batch? I tried the chocolate coconut chew, and I thought it was horrible. Really. It had this very strong metallic/alcohol flavor. Not sure where that came from. I checked the ingredients, and couldn't find anything to explain that. I tried a bite from 2 different bars ( I had bought a bunch) and threw the rest out. I was very disappointed. :(

As far as I can tell, though, Tiger's Milk bars are gluten-free--and they are yummy and delicious!

I like cherry pie best & then aple pie

I tried most of the rest of them and didnt like them

totally did not like the orange chocolate - weird.

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.

      Welcome to the forum. Is the nausea associated with eating certain foods, or anything else in particular?  Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months.

      Absolutely my point with Kerrigan, the owner. She stood to secure many years of faithful patronage by simply inviting us in for a pastry or lunch. Or by simply producing another $50 e-card based on trust. We would have been highly satisfied. We are limited to a few restaurants in the area, and that would have been one. It was very disappointing, esp to my wife, to realize we can't patronize the place anymore.
