Individually Wrapped Snacks

Happy New Year! My church is organizing an allergy free snack distribution/awareness group. I am researching individually wrapped snack ideas for youth - ideally gluten free and allergen free. Even if just gluten-free, I would welcome any suggestions that you have. Any ideas of easy, yummy snacks for little ones? Of course, I am digging online for options, but thought that you all were a great resource! Thanks!

That is a great idea! THe one time I provided a snack and didn't ask about special needs, one child couldn't participate and I was mortified. I tried to do better after that. I think your having a plan ahead of time is a proactive one.

The one thing that comes to mind are Lara bars. They are my back up. Of course if they don't have to keep indefinately, you could wrap up any allergy homemade items. Nuts, Rice chex mix, rice chex bars or muddy buddys, individually wrapped cheeses, corn tortilla chips, Fritos, fresh food, hard boiled eggs.

Was this what you were looking for?

shelf stable pudding cups-there might be a flavor or two that are not gluten-free but many are gluten-free, fruit cups, gelatin cups, applesauce cups,all-natural fruit leathers, Costco sells packets of freeze dried apples and asian pears

Another idea might be Enjoy Life Snack Bars. They come individually wrapped and in a few different flavors.

I use them to keep in my purse so I always have something to eat. :)

My kids like Envirokids Crispy Bars--berry or chocolate. They also have peanut butter which we don't like as much. I order them off Amazon for a good price, but our Costco just started carrying a multipack with the chocolate and peanut butter bars.

I go to Costco (or Sam's Club) and buy big boxes of 50 snack-size bags of Frito's corn chips (ingredients: corn, oil, salt).

      How long does it take to gain weight?

      By petitojou · Posted

      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.

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!
