Graham Crackers

I AM SOOOO EXCITED!!! Yesterday, I stumbled upon a little health food store in the middle of nowhere Michigan that carried Kinnikinnick Graham Crackers. They're called Smorables. I use to have two Graham Crackers dipped in milk every night for my dessert, pre-Gluten Free. I tried the Josef brand Graham Crackers, but they left a funny aftertaste, and just weren't quite right. I cautiously nibbled the corner of one of the Kinnikinnick crackers and wonder upon wonders it tastes like a REAL Graham Cracker!!!!!!!! (happy dance). I had Graham Crackers dipped in milk for dessert tonight! I highly recommend everyone try these. They are casein free, too!

We just found these too and my son loves them! You're so good to just dip them in milk...he did eat a ton of them plain, but he was so excited to make smores out of them. We nuked a marshmallow for 11 seconds in the microwave then rolled them onto cracker with a piece of chocolate. He wouldn't share with me, but he said they tasted just like he remembered smores tasting!!

Are Kinnikinnick flaky like gluten graham crackers or are they thick/dense like Josef? DD used to love Josef grahams but has stopped eating them recently so I'm looking for something new. I'm thinking I'd like to try Smorables and asked our HFS if they can order them. Thanks!

I didn't find them as dense as the Josef crackers. I don't know if I would call them "flaky", but they were pretty darn close!

They get even closer if you toast them for a minute in the toaster oven. MMMMMM!!!!!!

I made S'mores according the oven directions on the box and they were AMAZING! Its totally worth waiting for the oven to preheat.

Bought these today because of this thread. OMG!! These are FAB!!! Tried them before I even got home. Probably should have bought more boxes because I don't make it to that particular store too often.

My family makes our own graham crackers using Jules Gluten Free graham cracker mix--they turn out GREAT!! Smores were always a huge tradition at our house, so it's great to be able to participate again! Really--I think these are almost better than the gluten version :)

I'm going to have to look for this mix! I definitely prefer making stuff at home vs. buying it. Thanks for the tip!

I'm trying to do my own research before springing into action and asking tons of questions. I can't find where I might buy these. Trader Joes, Whole Foods, Wegmans.......???

Thank you!

They are still kind of hard to find. You might have to request that your local health food/grocery store stock them for you. If not, you can order them from kinnikinnick.com. The shipping rate is a flat fee. So, I would recommend ordering a bunch of things and stocking up. Good luck and happy hunting!

      Hello, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto's thyroiditis about 3 years ago. At that time I quit gluten and it really helped my symptoms. I hadn't known that I should've tested for celiac before doing so.  Up till recently, gluten would cause my symptoms to flare up, although I never noticed anything with cross contamination, so I wasn't strict about that. But recently, I noticed I could get away with more gluten, and so I decided to do a gluten challenge to see if I had celiac and if I had to be strict. Note that my thyroid antibodies had been decreasing steadily up to this point. My anti-TPO had reached 50 IU/ml from 250 IU/ml (reference range 0-5.6) when I had first been diagnosed. After just a week of the gluten challenge, I measured my thyroid antibodies and they were at 799 IU/ml! I felt fine, but a few days after I started to feel the symptoms. Extreme brain fog, insomnia, diarheaa, fatigue, sleepiness yet cannot sleep, stomachache after eating gluten, nausea, swollen throat (probably due to my thyroid), burping, and gas. I cannot function properly. I'm also worried that I'm killing my thyroid. Should I just quit the challenge? It's been almost two weeks, but the first week I wasn't tracking well, so that's why I didn't want to count it. I can't eat gluten anyway because of my thyroid, but I wanted the diagnosis to know if I should be strict about cross contamination or not.

      You really saved me as I was on day 4 of 3 g per day for 6 weeks. Thank you very much!

      Two weeks is the minimum according to the guideline. I would go for four weeks if you can endure it, just to make sure.

      Thank you so much! So I can do 10 g worth of gluten in the form of gluten powder per day for two weeks and that should be enough?

      It applies to both blood tests and biopsies. Guidelines for the gluten challenge have been revised for the very issue your question raises. It was felt by medical professionals that the longer term but less intense consumption of gluten approach was not proving to be reliable for testing purposes and was resulting in too many false negatives. But do keep in mind that the gluten consumption doesn't have to be in the form of bread slices. It can come in any form: pasta, cake, wraps, etc. Another approach would be to buy gluten powder at a health food store and mix it in a shake. The idea is to get at least 10g of gluten daily, whatever form it comes in.
