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!

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      @HAUS, I was at an event in the UK a few years back. I remember ringing the restaurant ahead to inquire about the gluten free options. All I wanted was a few gluten free sandwiches, which they provided and they were delicious. The gluten-free bread they used was Warbutons white bread and I remember mentioning it on this site before. No harm in trying...

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin. In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began...

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      @HAUS, I was at an event in the UK a few years back. I remember ringing the restaurant ahead to inquire about the gluten free options. All I wanted was a few gluten free sandwiches, which they provided and they were delicious. The gluten-free bread they used was Warbutons white bread and I remember mentioning it on this site before. No harm in trying it once. It's fortified with Calcium and Iron. https://www.warburtonsglutenfree.com/warbs_products/white-loaf/ The only other gluten-free bread that I've come across that is fortified is Schar with Iodized salt, nothing else.

      In the U.S., most regular wheat breads are required to be enriched with certain B-vitamins and iron, but gluten-free breads are not required to be. Since many gluten-free products are not enriched, we usually encourage people with celiac disease to consider a multivitamin.  In the early 1900s, refined white flour replaced whole grains, and people began developing serious vitamin-deficiency diseases: Beriberi → caused by a lack of thiamin (vitamin B1) Pellagra → caused by a lack of niacin (vitamin B3) Anemia → linked to low iron and lack of folate By the 1930s–40s, these problems were common in the U.S., especially in poorer regions. Public-health officials responded by requiring wheat flour and the breads made from it to be “enriched” with thiamin, riboflavin, niacin, and iron. Folic acid was added later (1998) to prevent neural-tube birth defects. Why gluten-free bread isn’t required to be enriched? The U.S. enrichment standards were written specifically for wheat flour. Gluten-free breads use rice, tapioca, corn, sorghum, etc.—so they fall outside that rule—but they probably should be for the same reason wheat products are.

While I understand wanting a formal diagnosis, it sounds like she will likely remain gluten-free either way, even if she should test negative for celiac disease (Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If her symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet, it would likely signal NCGS).

      Thank you all so much for your advice and thoughts. We ended up having another scope and more bloodwork last week. All serological markers continue to increase, and the doc who did the scope said there villous atrophy visible on the scope — but we just got the biopsy pathology report back, and all it says is, “Duodenal mucosa with patchy increased intraepithelial lymphocytes, preserved villous architecture, and patchy foveolar metaplasia,” which we are told is still inconclusive…  We will have her go gluten free again anyway, but how soon would you all test again, if at all? How valuable is an official dx in a situation like this?
