hello everyone! :)

I was recently in a health food store buying some stuff. I like a few Glutano products, but Ive never tried the breakfast bars. Can anyone tell me how they taste, if they're good or not? I bought the blueberry kind and didnt open the box yet.....I hate when you open the box and they taste awful.....You spend extra money and looked foward to it, only to have a bad taste left in your mouth!!!! :angry::angry::angry::angry::angry:

I waste so much money this way. So I figured Id post this message with the hope that someone can tell me about a product.....if you want, I'll reciprocate as well.

So, Glutano Breakfast Bars-----????????????

Also, just remembered the other one I bought and didnt like Nana's something ??? chocolate bars-------hated it. What about the regular cookies-----??????

Thank you,

Lets help one another save money! sounds like a great idea, no? :lol:

Happy August!!! B)

Glutano has lemon wafers that are good.

Glutano had blueberry and apple bars that are good but the chocolate ones are nasty.

I second that opinion! We like the fruit flavored ones, but the chocolate ones really are nasty! Only a few people on the two message boards I belong to have said they actually liked them. They were very bitter and just tasted bad. Not to mention what they look like. My kids thought they looked like dog poop that you find dried up outside! It doesn't make for a good mental image when you are biting down on something that you expect might taste good, and then it tastes awful. :huh:

The apples ones are my favorite, but I like the blueberry ones too. My friend thought the apple ones were too sweet, and she only likes the blueberry ones. I keep a stock of both. The only problem I have is that they are too small. If I need it as a quick on the go breakfast then I have to eat two of them.

We also love the Glutino Pizza flavored breadsticks. They do NOT taste like pizza, instead they remind my kids and I of the garlic flavored croutons we used to eat. They make an excellent crouton replacement on salads and are wonderful as a crunchy snack.

God bless,

WELL, we like the chocolate ones and the blueberry ones. But not the apple ones. We put cream cheese on top of them... like a bagel that way. We also love the pizza flavored bread stick, but can't find them anymore. On line ordering from glutano is too expensive. You end up paying TWICE for the stuff when you add in shipping charges. With the pizza flavored breadstick we used to sprinkle mozzerella cheese on top and bake till melted. Then add a side of sauce for dipping. Yum. Great lunch or snack for kids.

Ut-oh ~ I liked the chocolate ones as well! :ph34r:

I don't like the comparison to dog poop, but they did taste good to me!!!

I am a BIG chocolate fan, though, so maybe that has a bearing on it.

Anyway, I also loved the apple and blueberry. Open the box and enjoy!!! :)

I think, like anything, you've just got to try them. I tried the apple ones - they're ok. Nothing spectacular, but not awful. But, then again, I like Lara Bars. ;-) Sometimes, we've just got to try out these things (I know, I know... the cost gets expensive... that's why I don't try these things very often!)

I tried them all and didn't like any of them...

They're a raw food bar, that's essentially just nuts, dates, and spices with other dried fruit - depending on the flavor.

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:

      I just want to clarify that what I posted is a category of research summaries we've done over the years, and nearly each one shows that there is definitely a connection to celiac disease and migraine headaches. The latest study said: "the study did indicate some potential causal associations between celiac disease and migraine with or without aura, as well as between migraine without aura and ulcerative colitis...this study did not find evidence of a shared genetic basis..." Anyway, there is definitely a connection, and you can go through more of the articles here if you're interested: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was bad I could not do anything. I just lay in bed covered in ice packs to ease the pain/itching and using way too Clobetasol. Dapsone is also very good for dermatitis herpetiformis (and it is generic). It helped me and the results were immediate but it gave me severe anemia so the Dupixent is better for me. Not sure if it works for everyone. I cannot help with the cause of your stress but from experience I am sure the severe stress is making the celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis worse. Very difficult for you with having children to care for and you being so sick. Would this man be willing to see a family therapist with you? He may be angry at you or imagine that your illness is a psychosomatic excuse not to take care of him. A therapist might help even if he won't go with you. Also do you have any family that you could move in with (with the kids) for a short time to get away? A break may be good for you both.

      @tiffanygosci, Thiamine deficiency is a thing in pregnancy for "normal" people, so it's exponentially more important for those with celiac disease and malabsorption issues. I studied nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I was curious what the vitamins were doing inside the body.  See my blog.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll to drop down menu "activities" and select blog.   So glad you're motivated to see the dietician!  We're always happy to help with questions.  Keep us posted on your progress!
