New Glutino Crackers

I'm a pretty tough critic when it comes to eating gluten-free food because I am a part-time gluten eater. My daughter has Celiac, so we keep our house gluten-free. We've adjusted quite well the last year, mostly focusing on natural foods and mainstream gluten-free foods and a few can't-live-without substitute foods.

We've been regular buyers of Glutino "Ritz" style crackers to make homemade Lunchables. For a while, though, the crackers disappeared from our natural food store shelves, and the manager didn't know why.

Well, evidently, Glutino has expanded the line of gluten-free crackers. Today when I was there I saw not just the plain variety, but cheddar, herb, onion, and regular. I picked up a box of the cheddar and tried them the second I got home.

They taste delicious!!!! They are a little "tougher" than a true Ritz, but the flavor is very good and not "ricey" at all. I like them even better than the original Glutino cracker (I can't seem to find them on the Glutino web site or I'd link to it). I wouldn't say they are as cheesey as a Cheez-It, but have a nice texture, shape, and a good cheese flavor.

If anyone happens across these crackers, definitely give them a try. To me, they pass the ultimate gluten-free food test and that is---serving them to guests! I would totally use these to make a party snack or set them out with cheese for guests to eat. That's how good they are.

Anyway, my apologies if there is another thread like this (I didn't find one via search).

Happy munching!

My son likes the cheddar. He says they taste like goldfish crackers.

My dh is thrilled. He's fed them to non gluten-free friends, who really complained about some of my 'experiments' (garbanzo bean cake-bean, not flour) and they said they couldn't tell the multi-grain from a regular multi-grain cracker

Glutino crackers, regular and cheese, are one of the few specialty gluten free foods I buy on a regular basis. I like the regular ones with pepperoni and cheese on top.

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
