Casabe Rainforest Crackers - Still Available?

Hi,

Are Casabe Rainforest Crackers manufactured by Fortitude Brands still available for purchase in the U.S.? These crackers are made from cassava, or yuca, root.

Thanks!

Yes I saw two varieties of the Casabe Rainforest Crackers last week at a Shaw's Supermarket (owned by Albertsons) in Newburyport, MA. I also recall seeing them at Wholefoods in Boston, MA too. They are rather good IMHO.

I'm located in the greater Boston area of Massachusetts. In which Shaws Supermarket did you see them? Wonder which Whole Foods Markets in Mass. carry them, too... I'm looking forward to trying them.

Thanks again, everyone! :)

I saw them at Shaw's in North Beverly on Dodge Street and Whole foods in Swampscott.

We should start a gluten-free product barter system. "I'll get you Casabe crackers if you get me (insert favorite gluten-free food here)"

I saw them at the Shaw's in Newburyport (2 varieties/flavors), and I'm pretty sure at the Whole Foods on Cambridge Street (Charles River Plaza - Beacon Hill).

That's a good idea. It seems I'm always getting hooked on products that local stores discontinue. I'm sure others experience the same problem. Any thoughts on initiating a barter system?

Hi,

Last Friday I stopped by the Whole Foods Market on Cambridge Street. No Casabe crackers. :( I expect to receive a call from the manager about availability of these elusive crackers. I'll make sure to post an update.

So does that mean they're not available online? Guess I'll never find them out here in the sticks :(

Hmmm..don't know. Try this link:Open Original Shared Link

When I clicked on the Fortitude Brands link, the connection timed out. :(

I'd definitely be interested in a barter system, but I don't know how it would work since we're all over the place. Let's put our heads together on this. :rolleyes:

I've got more gluten-free beer than I know what to do with! Once it became available, EVERYONE started gifting me with it! :P

I would love to get my hands on these crackers. I can't eat corn or rice (as well as no gluten) so I've given up on anything resembling bread products. Crackers would be sooo nice.

      The Happy Tart review

      When my wife attempted to open the online card in the store with a cashier, it would not work. We then showed the owner the link to the card, the online receipt that I got upon purchase, and even my bank statement confirming the purchase. That did not satisfy her, since she said she needed the link to open to reveal the gift ID num. They even admitted they...

      Was the card itself lost or just the record or both?

      The Happy Tart review

      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally...

      Ibuprofen

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can...

      Ibuprofen

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce. Something is making my pain so much worse I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs. Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever...

Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally informs me there have been "bad actors", so she can't make good on this lost gift card. In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
