I Found Some Great Cookies!

A new grocery store opened near me -- Giant, for those of you in Giant land -- and it has a large international food section, especially Hispanic since there are a lot of immigrants from Latin America in my area. I was just browsing and saw these cookies. They are fabulous!

They're very similar to shortbread. Wonderful with tea. And I think they'd be good crushed and used for a graham cracker type pie crust. :)

At first glance they were expensive, but the unit price is way cheaper than anything else because there are so many cookies in the box -- two large sleeves of them.

Anyway, that's my food report for today. lol... I have no idea if these are new or just new to me, but I'm thrilled. :)B)

What are the ingredients in yours because the last time I looked those Goya cookies had wheat flour as the first ingredient? We used to get them all the time when I was working and I used to love them.

I just looked them up and yes they do say Gluten Free in big letters on the package. They do have wheat based ones also. They must be a new product. I will be looking for them.

No, obviously this must be a different cookie since obviously I wouldn't be eating cookies that had the first ingredient as wheat, nor would I be reporting them on a celiac message board. :rolleyes:

Ingredients: corn flour, sunflower oil, sugar, corn starch, corn glucose and fructose, rice flour, soy flour, corn fibre, pea fibre, raising agents, sodium and ammonium bicarbonates, salt, emulsifier, soy lecithin.

No gluten, eggs, or dairy.

I was not trying to imply anything only that I had never seen gluten free ones and went to the website and the only ones I found were the ones with wheat flour and I used to love those cookies. Doesn't much matter though since they have soy and sugar :(

The pea fiber makes them not safe for my daughter.

I would like to try one though. I hope they start to sell nationwide soon.

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
