Glutino Crackers

I just tried the Glutino "Ritz style" crackers and they are awesome!!! Other than rice crackers, this is the 1st gluten free cracker I like. They refer to them as their "Ritz" style cracker but I think they taste more like a Saltine. Actually if you let it linger on your tastebuds for a second after you finish chewing it tastes exactly like a Saltine. They were so good I kept popping them in my mouth, and then my hubby tried one and said, "yknow what they taste like?" I stopped for a second and went OMG, they're a Saltine!!

I think they also have a flax seed variety and some sort of veggie flavor.

WOO HOO!! I'm so excited :lol:

I was not much of a bread person before anyway - but LOVE crackers. I haven't found a single thing that I like yet and am so excited to try something new!!!

You made my day :)

wolfie Enthusiast

Yes!! They are very good!!! I like to eat them with cheddar cheese slices on them! :)

We also eat the Diamond Nut Thins, but they aren't nearly as good as these crackers. A little pricey, but worth every penny!

Thanks for the info. My son loves Ritz crackers. As long a they look like a Ritz and taste ok, he shouldn't really notice the difference. (He's only 3.) I haven't tried a lot of Glutino products yet, but I will for sure try these.

I bought these a month ago and I was impressed! I actually just ate a few just a couple of minutes ago, I put some of the Laughing Cow spread on...yum!

I love those crackers! I only found them once and when I went back they didn't have them anymore. I travel a lot and I've looked for them in about 10 health food stores and I've never seen them again.

They also make Rusks which are like toast rounds. I really liked those as well and I can't find them. They are very crunchy and good with cheese or a spread on them.

I'm sure there are tons of good products out there and hopefully the selection offered locally will only get better.

I can only get them at the Gluten Free store in Dillsburg, I never have seen them anywhere else either. I do use Nut Thins as well, they are good with cheese. I haven't tried them with a spread yet though.

I found them at a store that isn't really near where I live at all so I was thinking I would order more from here:

Thanks Donna!! Good to know I can get them there. I'm not sure if my Whole Foods has them, but I think we may be coming to LI this weekend so I'll pick some more up. And actually I just bought those pretzels a few weeks ago at Dr. B Wells and am hooked. I keep the bag at my desk and snack on them pretty much every day.

Thanks again!!!

The pretzels are great!!! They taste like the real thing. I am also hooked.

Dr. B. Wells has the Glutino crackers too.

Dr. B. Wells has the Glutino crackers too.

That is where I got them :)

I love that place!!!

Remember the rainbow cookies at Earth Remedies? Well after much research I concluded that they were made by Cinderella Sweets (aka: Shabta Gourmet); and Dr. B Wells has them!!!!! If they aren't the same cookies, you sure wouldn't know it. They taste and look exactly the same. I bought 4 boxes last time.

Also if you haven't tried the graham crackers by The Grainless Baker, those are another MUST. Again, Dr. B Wells.

Glutino also makes a retangular shaped cracker that is similar to a club cracker, but not as sweet tasting. It's pretty good.

You got me hooked on those rainbow cookies. I miss them. I'll have to go to Dr. B Wells this weekend and get some. Thanks again Jillian

LOL!! Unless you are planning on getting other stuff, call first and see if they have the cookies. They don't always have them. I'm eating some of the graham crackers now. Soooo good!

      Welcome to the forum, @McKinleyWY, For a genetic test, you don't have to eat gluten, but this will only show if you have the genes necessary for the development of Celiac disease.  It will not show if you have active Celiac disease.   Eating gluten stimulates the production of antibodies against gluten which mistakenly attack our own bodies.  The antibodies are produced in the small intestines.  Three grams of gluten are enough to make you feel sick and ramp up anti-gluten antibody production and inflammation for two years afterwards.  However, TEN grams of gluten or more per day for two weeks is required to stimulate anti-gluten antibodies' production enough so that the anti-gluten antibodies move out of the intestines and into the bloodstream where they can be measured in blood tests.  This level of anti-gluten antibodies also causes measurable damage to the lining of the intestines as seen on biopsy samples taken during an endoscopy (the "gold standard" of Celiac diagnosis).   Since you have been experimenting with whole wheat bread in the past year or so, possibly getting cross contaminated in a mixed household, and your immune system is still so sensitized to gluten consumption, you may want to go ahead with the gluten challenge.   It can take two years absolutely gluten free for the immune system to quit reacting to gluten exposure.   Avoiding gluten most if the time, but then experimenting with whole wheat bread is a great way to keep your body in a state of inflammation and illness.  A diagnosis would help you stop playing Russian roulette with your and your children's health.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @McKinleyWY! There currently is no testing for celiac disease that does not require you to have been consuming generous amounts of gluten (at least 10g daily, about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least two weeks and, to be certain of accurate testing, longer than that. This applies to both phases of testing, the blood antibody tests and the endoscopy with biopsy.  There is the option of genetic testing to see if you have one or both of the two genes known to provide the potential to develop celiac disease. It is not really a diagnostic measure, however, as 30-40% of the general population has one or both of these genes whereas only about 1% of the general population actually develops celiac disease. But genetic testing is valuable as a rule out measure. If you don't have either of the genes, it is highly unlikely that you can have celiac disease. Having said all that, even if you don't have celiac disease you can have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms as celiac disease but does not involve and autoimmune reaction that damages the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. Both conditions call for the complete elimination of gluten from the diet. I hope this brings some clarity to your questions.

      Hello all, I was diagnosed at the age of 2 as being allergic to yeast.  All my life I have avoided bread and most products containing enriched flour as they  contain yeast (when making the man made vitamins to add back in to the flour).  Within the last year or so, we discovered that even whole wheat products bother me but strangely enough I can eat gluten free bread with yeast and have no reactions.  Obviously, we have come to believe the issue is gluten not yeast.  Times continues to reinforce this as we are transitioning to a gluten free home and family.  I become quite ill when I consume even the smallest amount of gluten. How will my not having consumed breads/yeast/gluten for the better part of decades impact a biopsy or blood work?  I would love to know if it is a gluten intolerance or a genetic issue for family members but unsure of the results given my history of limited gluten intake.   I appreciate the input from those who have gone before me in experience and knowledge. Thank you all!

      I know what you mean. When I get glutened I have severe gut cramps and throw up for 2-3 hr. and then have diarrhea for another several hours. Avoid eating out if at all possible. It is the number one source of gluten contamination for us celiacs. When you are forced to eat out at a new restaurant that you are not sure is safe, try to order things that you can be sure will not get cross contaminated like a boiled egg, baked potatos, steamed vegies, fresh fruit. Yes, I know that doesn't sound as appetizing as pizza or a burger and fries but your health is at stake. I also realize that as a 14 year old you don't have a lot of control over where you eat out because you are tagging along with others or adults are paying for it. Do you have support from your parents concerning your need to eat gluten free? Do you believe they have a good understanding of the many places gluten can show up in the food supply?

      Okay went online to check green mountain k cups .It was said that the regular coffees are fine but they couldn’t guarantee cross contamination.with the flavors. im trying to figure out since I eliminated the suyrup so far so good.
