Just spotted the first of Enjoy Life's reformulated cookies in the grocery store today (Fairway in NYC). Bought a box of the Chocolate Chip and while I already thought the old ones were very good and it doesn't look like the ingredients have changed much, they are noticeably better!

Great! That's good to hear!

HOoray! I saw some of the new ones on sale yesterday *with* a coupon attached :D but I didn't buy it because I'd tried them before and didn't like them much...I may have to go run and pick some up now!

Did they end up adding oats to them? I did a survey a while back for Enjoy Life and they were asking in the survey about whether Oats were considered gluten free. I told them no because some celiacs (myself included) react to oats. I hope they did not add oats to their products. Glad to hear they are better though.

No oats, at least in the new Chocolate Chip and Double Chocolate Brownie formulas. Those are the only two I saw at the store, which was still stocking the old versions of Enjoy Life's other flavors. I react to oats as well, so let's hope the steered clear of them entirely!

Beware (LOL)! When you open the box and only eat one, a little voice commands you to keep coming back for more. The REALLY are that good and I don't have a sweet tooth.

Good job with the re-formulation Enjoy Life. So moist too.

I've always liked the gingerbread flavored cookies they have, but I am leery to buy them since I bought a box and the cookies were hard on two occasions.

I realize a lot of gluten-free products do not have the shelf life or preservatives of other products. Knowing this, maybe the company should mark a clear "best by ....date" on them???

I recently saw some Enjoy Life cookies on sale at Whole Paycheck, so I bought choc. chip and chocolate brownie. I gobbled the choc chip ones up! Great improvement. However, the choc brownie ones were not flavorful enough to be worth the calorie density to me. I'd rather eat a brownie.

Bought a box of the Snickerdoodles. They taste the same to me. I just love them!

      How Come Gluten Didnt Bother Me In Italy

      By Theresa2407 · Posted

      Maybe you have a low  intolerance to Wheat.   Rye, Barley and Malt are the gluten in Celiac disease.  It has always been stated Wheat and Gluten, not just a Wheat intolerance.  Barley will keep me in bed for (2) weeks.  Gut, Migrains, Brain fog, Diahrea.  It is miserable.  And when I was a toddler the doctor would give me a malt medicine because I always had Anemia and did not grow.  Boy was he off.  But at that time the US didn't know anyone about Celiac.  This was the 1940s and 50s.  I had my first episode at 9 months and did not get a diagnosis until I was 50.  My immune system was so shot before being diagnoised, so now I live with the consequences of it. I was so upset when Manufacturers didn't want to label their products so they added barley to the product.  It was mostly the cereal industry.  3 of my favorite cereals were excluded because of this. Malt gives me a bad Gut reaction.

      Thanks much Scott.  Well said, and heeded.   I don't have Celiac, which is fortunate.

      Possible celiac - need advice

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Do you have the results of your endoscopy? Did you do a celiac disease blood panel before that?  Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Celiac or not??

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It is odd that your Tissue Transglutaminase (TTG) IgA level has bounced from the "inconclusive" range (7.9, 9.8) down to a negative level (5.3), only to climb back up near the positive threshold. This inconsistency, coupled with your ongoing symptoms of malabsorption and specific nutrient deficiencies, is a strong clinical indicator that warrants a more thorough investigation than a simple "satisfactory" sign-off. A negative blood test does not definitively rule out celiac disease, especially with such variable numbers and a classic symptomatic picture. You are absolutely right to seek a second opinion and push for a referral to a gastroenterologist. A biopsy remains the gold standard for a reason, and advocating for one is the most direct path to getting the answers you need to finally address the root cause of your suffering.

      There is a distinction between gluten itself and the other chemicals and processing methods involved in modern food production. Your experience in Italy and Greece, contrasted with your reactions in the U.S., provides powerful anecdotal evidence that the problem, for some people, may not be the wheat, but the additives like potassium bromate and the industrial processing it undergoes here. The point about bromines displacing iodine and disrupting thyroid function is a significant one, explaining a potential biological mechanism for why such additives could cause systemic health issues that mimic gluten sensitivity. It's both alarming and insightful to consider that the very "watchdog" agencies meant to protect us are allowing practices banned in many other developed countries. Seeking out European flour and your caution about the high-carb, potentially diabeticgenic nature of many gluten-free products are excellent practical takeaways from your research, but I just want to mention--if you have celiac disease you need to avoid all wheat, including all wheat and gluten in Europe.
