Best Gf Cookie Ever! And Breadsticks...

I just wanted to share that I tried Enjoy Life's Snickerdoodle cookies...and *liked* them!! They are moist, chewy, and don't have that gritty aftertaste than most gluten-free cookies do. They also didnt' have any wierd or artificial ingredients in them.

Also, I can't rave enough about Chebe's breadsticks. I'd heard they were good but had held off buying any because they're a little pricey and, well, most bread products that are gluten-free are just not worth eating. But Chebe's Great!! It looked and tasted like bread, really good. I made the cheese sticks, and added baking powder and a little extra cheese. Terrific!

It's so nice to be able to post some *good* food news for once :lol:

I LOVE snickerdoodles... will definitely give them a try!! Thanks for the post. :)

Oh wow, and no potato? Cool!

NO: Gluten, wheat, dairy, casein, egg, soy, peanut, corn, potato, yeast, hydrogenated oil, artificial anything, or worries-made in a gluten-free & peanut-free bakery.

That's awesome! I love snickerdoodles, too....

Thanks for the info on breadsticks and snickerdoodles! I would like to add some good news: Breads from Anna has a bread mix that I tried for the first time yesterday. The results were so wonderful I almost cried tears of joy! I had tried 4 different breads from the specialty stores. None of them resembled bread in texture or taste...yuck!! Breads from Anna actually tastes like real bread! I had 2 slices of toast this morning. The first real bread taste I have enjoyed since I went gluten-free 3 months ago! For those of you who miss having sandwiches and toast, try this bread. I think you will love it!

i love those enjoylife snickerdoodles! the choc chip are pretty good too. and chebe--i made some italian cheese breadsticks with it last night that we dipped in pizza sauce. they were great... small victories :)

Kasey'sMom Enthusiast

I've never tried the Chebe bread before. Do most of the Chebe recipes use eggs and or dairy?

Thanks :)

jenvan Collaborator

Kasey's mom-

go here to see their products and which are casein free. i don't think there is any milk in the mix, but you add cheese to some of the mixes. they do use eggs however...but you could try a substitute. it would be a great product if you could use it. Open Original Shared Link

Oh, and all Chebe mixes are also free of corn, soy, potato, rice, iodine, and MSG...

The red bag has casein in it. You're supposed to use eggs in the mix. I use water or rice milk instead of milk. I don't add cheese. I think Chebe is great. Today I unpacked two cases of Chebe...garlic/onion and cinnamon. Yum. I don't like the red bag too much..it has a weird after taste.

The Enjoy Life Foods cookies make an excellent no bake pie crust! You just crumble up the cookies and smoosh them into shape in a pie pan and then add whatever filling you want, like a cheesecake or key lime or lemon merenge pie!!!! (by no bake it means you don't have to bake the pie crust before adding your fillings) Personally I think the chocolate chip cookies and the no oats oatmeal ones make the best crust!

Ohhhhhhhh my. :D I think I'm in love!! Chebe and Kinnikinnick will be the first things I try when I start adding foods back. The YORK booklet mentioned taht some people with chicken egg sensitivities could tolerate duck eggs. I think I need to move to the country and get some ducks. :lol: The Chebe bread actually looks like "REAL" bread.

Thanks :)

      In the study linked above, the little girl switched to a gluten free diet and gained enough weight that that fat pad was replenished and surgery was not needed.   Here's the full article link...

      Hello, @Jordan Carlson, So glad you're feeling better.   Tecta is a proton pump inhibitor.  PPI's also interfere with the production of the intrinsic factor needed to absorb Vitamin B12.  Increasing the amount of B12 you supplement has helped overcome the lack of intrinsic factor needed to absorb B12. Proton pump inhibitors also reduce the production of digestive juices (stomach acids).  This results in foods not being digested thoroughly.  If foods are not digested sufficiently, the vitamins and other nutrients aren't released from the food, and the body cannot absorb them.  This sets up a vicious cycle. Acid reflux and Gerd are actually symptoms of producing too little stomach acid.  Insufficient stomach acid production is seen with Thiamine and Niacin deficiencies.  PPI's like Tecta also block the transporters that pull Thiamine into cells, preventing absorption of thiamine.  Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are difficulty swallowing, gagging, problems with food texture, dysphagia. Other symptoms of Thiamine deficiency are symptoms of ADHD and anxiety.  Vyvanse also blocks thiamine transporters contributing further to Thiamine deficiency.  Pristiq has been shown to work better if thiamine is supplemented at the same time because thiamine is needed to make serotonin.  Doctors don't recognize anxiety and depression and adult onset ADHD as early symptoms of Thiamine deficiency. Stomach acid is needed to digest Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) in fruits and vegetables.  Ascorbic acid left undigested can cause intestinal upsets, anxiety, and heart palpitations.   Yes, a child can be born with nutritional deficiencies if the parents were deficient.  Parents who are thiamine deficient have offspring with fewer thiamine transporters on cell surfaces, making thiamine deficiency easier to develop in the children.  A person can struggle along for years with subclinical vitamin deficiencies.  Been here, done this.  Please consider supplementing with Thiamine in the form TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) which helps immensely with dysphagia and neurological symptoms like anxiety, depression, and ADHD symptoms.  Benfotiamine helps with improving intestinal health.  A B Complex and NeuroMag (a magnesium supplement), and Vitamin D are needed also.

      @pothosqueen, Welcome to the tribe! You'll want to get checked for nutritional deficiencies and start on supplementation of B vitamins, especially Thiamine Vitamin B 1.   There's some scientific evidence that the fat pad that buffers the aorta which disappears in SMA is caused by deficiency in Thiamine.   In Thiamine deficiency, the body burns its stored fat as a source of fuel.  That fat pad between the aorta and digestive system gets used as fuel, too. Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test to look for thiamine deficiency.  Correction of thiamine deficiency can help restore that fat pad.   Best wishes for your recovery!   Interesting Reading: Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome in a 6-Year-Old Girl with Final Diagnosis of Celiac Disease https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31089433/#:~:text=Affiliations,tissue and results in SMAS.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
