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.

      Gluten-Mimicking Proteins that can affect some Celiac individuals.

      Thank you for sharing your experience, Florence. It’s important to clarify, though, that proteins like zein in corn, panicin in millet, and kafirin in sorghum are not considered gluten and have not been shown to trigger the same autoimmune intestinal damage seen in celiac disease. Some people with celiac disease do report symptoms with certain gluten-free g...

      Second chance

      It’s true that awareness of celiac disease can vary among physicians, particularly outside of gastroenterology, and many patients end up educating their own providers. Reaching out to someone you trusted for 25 years makes sense if you felt heard and supported. That said, celiac disease management often benefits from a team approach, including a knowledgeable p...

      Schar's products contain wheat!

      I understand why that feels concerning. Some Schär products use specially processed wheat starch that has had the gluten removed to meet strict gluten-free standards (under 20 ppm in the U.S. and EU), which is why they can legally and safely be labeled “gluten free” for people with celiac disease. However, wheat must still be listed in the ingredients and ...

      Thank you for sharing your experience, Florence. It’s important to clarify, though, that proteins like zein in corn, panicin in millet, and kafirin in sorghum are not considered gluten and have not been shown to trigger the same autoimmune intestinal damage seen in celiac disease. Some people with celiac disease do report symptoms with certain gluten-free grains, oats, or other foods, but that reflects individual intolerance or sensitivity—not a proven “gluten-mimic” effect that damages the small intestine. Certified gluten-free oats are considered safe for most people with celiac disease, though a small subset may react to avenin. If specific foods consistently cause symptoms for you, it makes sense to avoid them personally, but it’s helpful for readers to know that these foods are still medically classified as gluten-free and generally safe for the broader celiac community.

Reaching out to someone you trusted for 25 years makes sense if you felt heard and supported. That said, celiac disease management often benefits from a team approach, including a knowledgeable primary care provider and, when needed, a gastroenterologist or dietitian familiar with gluten-related disorders. Advocating for yourself is not unreasonable—it’s part of managing a chronic condition. If your current provider relationship isn’t working, it’s appropriate to seek care where you feel respected and properly supported.

However, wheat must still be listed in the ingredients and allergen statement because it is derived from wheat, even though the gluten protein has been removed. For individuals with a true wheat allergy, these products are not appropriate—but for those with celiac disease, properly tested gluten-free wheat starch is considered safe under current medical guidelines. That said, it’s completely reasonable to prefer products made without wheat starch if that gives you greater confidence, and clearer front-of-package communication could certainly help reduce confusion for shoppers.

      By elisejunker44 · Posted

      I have enjoyed Schar's gluten free products for years. However, some items Do contain Wheat and are not clearly labeled on the front. Indeed the package states 'gluten free' on the front, and it is not until you read the ingredient label that one see's wheat as the first ingredient. Some celiacs may be willing to take a chance on this 'gluten free wheat', but not me. I strongly feel that the labeling for these wheat containing products should be clearly labeled on the front, with prehaps a different color and not using the 'no gluten symbol on the front. The products are not inexpensive, and also dangerous for my health!
