Nutrition Facts and Ingredients

Jo-Sef’s Gluten Free was created after a parent’s journey into finding delicious food products for people who suffer from Celiac disease—a reaction to eating gluten that damages the small intestine and prevents it from absorbing essential parts of food to stay healthy. After much research and several experiments, Jo-Sef’s created a bevy of succulent gluten free recipes that provide the nutrition and necessary elements of great tasting food without sacrificing the flavor.

The simply delicious vanilla o’s are egg free, wheat free, corn free, and contain no preservatives. So what exactly is in this cookie that makes it taste so amazing? It must be the combination of rice and soy flour, non hydrogenated palm oil, organic powdered sugar, potato starch, salt and vanilla extract. All these simple ingredients combined together make for one extraordinary tasting cookie that can be enjoyed by people suffering from Celiac disease and anyone else, for that matter. The company boasts their reputation for great tasting gluten free baked goods and they have every right to do so, as these cookies are one of the more memorable ones on the palate. Simply delicious is exactly what this cookie is—simple and delicious.

Taste:  I cannot rave enough about this product. Visually, it looks like a vanilla version of the Oreo cookie, but tastes even better. The cookie is light and airy, while the filling has just the right amount of sugar sweetness to compliment the vanilla cookie exterior. There is no powdery or grainy aftertaste which I find to be standard in gluten free baked goods, so this particular company stands out because of that defining characteristic.

Labeling:  Company history on left side of the box, nutritional facts on the right side of the box. Design on the front of the box is simple, yet colorful.

Packaging:  a two-row, plastic tray sealed within a cardboard box. Serving size is two cookies, with eight servings per box.
