Blue Diamond Nut Thins

I bought a couple boxes of these crackers. They were in the gluten free area at my Meijer's. The box even says they are Proud sponsors of the Celiac Disease Foundation. Underneath the ingredients it says produced in a facility that also makes products containing: wheat, soy, pecans, and hazelnuts. What do you think of this? A little contradicting if you ask me.

I agree with you. Appears they would love to have Celiac's purchase their products but are not dedicated enough to truly cater to us.

w,

Which ones did you get? Are they good? They seem to have a lot of varieties. I'm getting really tired of all the crackers and such that have sesame seeds. Why does everything have to contain sesame seeds? Last week at the store I was debating between the Blue Diamond pecan thins and the Mary's Gone crackers. I got the latter, even though they were more expensive. Don't like them (sorry MG fans), way too sesame seedy.

BTW, the name always reminds me of the album "Ogdon's Nut Gone Flake" by The Small Faces. Itchycoo Park, anyone?

best regards, lm

I got the almond ones and the hazelnut ones. They have a light taste. I tried the almond ones. It is definitely a rice cracker. I couldn't taste the almonds. It took care of my salt craving anyway.

I bake gluten free rolls in a muffin tin, then slice thin and bake....you can put seasonings on them before baking. They are good with cheese and things like that.

These are my daughter Abby's favorite cracker, the almond nut thins and the cheese nut thins. She seems to eat them without any problems. We also love Glutino crackers, they are the most like a real ritz type of cracker.

What a great idea PV. Kind of like bagel chips? These gluten-free crackers are expensive and not very good. Actually, I think it's a stretch to even call them crackers.

I think that's just a CYA statement, at least they're honest about it. Chances are 99% of companies should slap that statement on their products but don't because they don't want to appear duplicitous.

While it might seem that Blue Diamond is trying to have their gluten free cake and eat it too with the sponsoring and CYA statements, the bottom line for me is they make a tasty cracker that stands about as much chance of being CC'ed as anything I have in my kitchen after my 2 daughters have mauraded through it. Just my 2 cents. :)

I like these crackers, the cheese ones are good and I get the almond to go with cheese which is a very tasty treat. I have not ever had a reaction with them. I also do buy other products which are processed in facilities as wheat, etc. I too can get CC from my own kitchen or anywhere else. It all does come down to personal preference.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Taken Seriously

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.
