Glutino Pretzles

I noticed that Whole Foods stocks big bags of Glutino Pretzles but at $5. I wanted to ask if anyone has tasted them and if they taste anything like real pretzles. I've spent so much on gluten free snacks that were so bad that I've only eaten them one time. Thanks!

I LOVE these pretzels! I don't buy them often because of the expense. Even my gluten-eating friends always grab some out of my bag. I think they are worth buying, but I do wish they were cheaper so I could have them more often.

$5.00 sounds like a good price to me--- I pay $6.99 a bag. All of my family gluten-free & non gluten-free love them. They I think are actually better than the wheat ones.I put hersey kisses in between two of them heat in oven ---makes a great treat for the kids.

Stawberry pretzel salad is another good one..

I LOVE these pretzels. thats a pretty good price. i have a hard time finding them so buys tons of bags at once. they are expensive but i buy them anyways cause hey i dont have many options! defintlye buy them. i think they are way better than "normal" pretzels and my fiancee and sister who are non celiac love them too.

In my opinion, glutino pretzels are the best out there!! Before I went gluten-free I was a pretzel fiend, I was soooo happy to find these (happy dance moment!)! I prefer them to the gluten-filled variety (so do my friends but they have to sneak them because they're mine :P).

And $5 a bag?? I usually pay around $8 :o

If you like pretzels at all, BUY THEM!! You won't be sorry :D

My dd loves them too! I pay about $6.99 a bag too. Crazy!!

cycler Contributor

WOW! I'm so glad to hear what you all said! I might've understated the price - I know when I saw the $5 in the price I didn't look to see how much it was exactly. It's just so annoying to pay these prices when everone else pays .99 for a bag of ordinary pretzles.

Ah but these are no ordinary pretzels; they're better!!

My husb loves the Energ Wylde Pretzels. Says they are very close the "reg" pretzels and they do not cost $5 a bag.

i concur with all. they're excellent, and $5 is probably the best price i've heard for them...

I LOVE THOSE TOO!!!!!!!! My friend and I were on a road trip and she tried some, then wanted more, but I was like NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

my daughter and I both love the Glutino pretzels... last year for snack time at school, my daughter wanted to take them to share with her entire class one day, the whole kindergarten class LOVED them.

Rusla Enthusiast

I love the sesame ones, they are killer good.

cycler Contributor

You were all right!!!!!!!

I bought them this week and they are GREAT!

They were $5.99 but it is a big bag and if I don't eat too many at one time it will last a while.

I like the EnerG pretzels, regular not sesame @ $1.80.

I guess I must be an oddball! I tried the Glutino pretzels last year and thought they were disgusting! I threw them out. Looks like I am the only person who doesn't love them!!!

The EnerG sesame ones are my favorite. Glutinos are ok, but have found I prefer EnerG. I also like that they come in smaller bags and easy for snacking on trips and carpooling and etc....

glutino pretzels can be bought on amazon .com in bulk --- you end up paying less than 5 dollars a bag which for me was excellent since I can only get them for 6.99 at the cheapest! I love the pretzels and I'm more than happy to have tons - my fiance eats them on me and drives me nuts!

Kinda off topic here but has anyone tired the Glutino break bar? It tastes just like a kit kat! Its so good that I checked the labeling again just make sure I'd read it correctly. I think I'm really lucky to get them, as I know of only one health food shop in my area that get them in (It don't think it is a common brand here in Aus) I also wanted to as if anyone has tired there savoury biscuits, the health food shop sells them in pack of 3 or 4 wich would be perfect for me as the other brand similar biscuits I buy end up going off before I can eat them. Grateful for anyones thoughts! esp on the chocie bar ( I am just ever so slightly obsessed)

All those gluten-free pretzels are great in "Chex mix" made with Rice Crunchems and Corn crunchems and some mixed nuts. One of these days I'm going to make some chocolate covered ones for that sweet/salty combo I miss. Or just melt some chocolate chips in the microwave and dunk them as I eat.

I just had to post to this one. Recently diagnosed Celiac, first time poster. My sister and 2 nieces also have it. I have only been able to find these in a little health food store in Evansville IN ( I go through there to get to my sisters'). I usually have to pay about 7.00 or 8.00 dollars for them. They are excellent.

I always save some back and use them in my meatloaf. My husband (non-celiac) has said he loves the meatloaf with the Glutino preztels in them better than when I made my meatloaf with crackers.

I also use them for a crunchy crust for casseroles. There are a 101 uses for them.

I love these pretzels. I put plain cream cheese on them. It tastes just like a bagel.

      I did a tTG-IgA test to check if they were high I usually do it a lot when I was a kid but the last time I did it was when I was 12 then now at 17 and they were 32 the normal is less than 7 i guess .also I want to know,I do have gluten free supplements but they are not absorbed well due to the inflammation, what do I do should I wait six month after I eat gluten free food or take now even tho I am not sure if they able to be absorbed and I don't see improvements

      Actually, it's an opioid hit.  Gluten attaches to opioid receptors we have throughout our bodies including our digestive systems.  That opioid hit from gluten attaching to opioid receptors is probably why some people don't have gastrointestinal symptoms.  Some people feel worse after going gluten free because they are no longer consuming exogenous opioids from gluten. We also have opioid receptors in our brains which can account for brain fog.  Remember that antibodies against gluten attack not only the gluten on the receptors, but also our own tissues because structural elements in our cell membranes resemble gluten.  In our digestive systems, our villi, the anemone like projections that absorb nutrients, are damaged.  Same type of thing in the tissue of the brain.  People with gluten ataxia tend to produce tTg 6 IgA antibodies.  Diagnostic blood tests for Celiac test for tTg 2 antibodies from the intestines.  People with Parkinson's and Alzheimer's also produce tTg 6 antibodies although they may not have Celiac Disease.   Gluten is not just an addiction, it's a health hazard to us.

      Do you have a soy or peanut allergy? This shouldn't be a concern purely from a celiac or gluten sensitivity perspective.

      Welcome to the forum, @Sarawiththeceliac! Can you give us the reference range for your celiac test? Different labs use different reference ranges for negative vs. positive so without that a test score of 32 is not that helpful. And its that a recent test or was it done when you were 5 years old? It is imperative that you begin to observe a strict gluten-free diet. If you will do this, you can expect substantial improvement in your health. I can't promise you that you will experience 100% repair of all body damage but you can expect significant improvement overall. You will also need invest in some high potency gluten-free vitamin and mineral supplements. Celiac disease damages the lining of the small bowel. That is the area of the intestinal track where all of the vitamins and minerals contained in what we eat gets absorbed. The damage to this villous lining greatly reduces the efficiency of the absorption. In the meantime, here is a primer for getting off to a good start on the gluten free diet:

      I was just about to pop a progesterone pill into my mouth for the first time, before I read the label. It says, may contain soy or peanut on the cvs label. Mfr is Aurobindo. Maybe cvs just slaps this warning on all meds. Idk but now I have to dig into it.
