REVIEW:
This is the third thing I’ve sampled from Bakery on Main and I can say that along with the other two oatmeal products, this did not disappoint.  True Bar comes with the testimony on the package of, “I am an Apricot Almond Chai Bar with nothing to hide.”  After my first bite, I felt this was an accurate statement.  Right there, plain as day I got intense flavors of every ingredient in the name: the sweetness of the apricot, the crunchy nuttiness of the almond and the intense after-taste of the chai.  The flavors blend surprisingly well together and I was especially delighted by the chai, which gives the whole bar and extra zing that would otherwise be lacking.  There are quite a few spices in there as well, including ginger, cinnamon and cardamom, which come out pretty strong overall.  I have to say, if you don’t like chai and exotic spices, this particular bar might not be for you and one of their other flavors might be better suited.

The bar itself is soft and sticky, which gives it a good texture when you’re eating it, but becomes somewhat difficult when you are trying to handle it.  There’s no good way to do so other than just to use the packaging as a grip so you don’t muss up your fingers.  I look at bars as an “on-the-go” food and syrupy hands after this kind of snack can be problematic.  No one likes sticky steering wheels for instance.  But perhaps your life isn’t quite that hectic and you can enjoy a snack bar while not doing a million things at the same time.  Then the stickiness can be taken as is and the bar enjoyed for simply being delicious.  Personally, I make exceptions and this True Bar is tasty enough where licking my fingers afterwards is a statement to its unique flavors and satisfying composition. 

Bakery on Main is a pretty diverse company for basically dealing with gluten free oatmeal products.  They have a great story as to how they got started and they seemingly carry this hometown goodness into all of their food.  The True Bar comes in a variety of amazing flavors, most of which can be found at the Gluten Free Grocery.  The bar itself is only 160 calories and packs in 3 grams of protein as well.  It has simple straightforward ingredients along with chia seeds for an extra dose of omega 3’s and fiber.  Overall, this is a great treat and Bakery on Main is certainly becoming a brand I will keep an eye on and recommend to others as delicious gluten free foods.

REVIEW:

On a recent trip to the supermarket, we ran across Late July Organic Snacks’ multigrain snack chip in a flavor called Sea Salt by the Seashore.  Seeing that it was certified gluten free, we knew that we had to try it.  Digging around on their website, we found out that these chips are organic, certified gluten free, 100% whole grains, has 280mgs of omega-3s, contains no GMOs, no trans fats, and no artificial colors or preservatives.  On top of that they donate 10% of their profits to summer camp scholarships.  What more can you ask for?

Looking at the chip, the first thing that came to mind was that these were tortilla chips.  Take one bite into them and you will quickly see that it is more than that.  They may be in the shape of tortilla chips, but they are so much better.  These chips are made with a mix of seeds and a blend of whole grains like ground whole corn, quinoa and brown rice.  They taste great.  They are very light and crispy and have a nice light flavor.  The variety we purchased was just seasoned with sea salt so you can really taste the flavor of the grains.  The sea salt flavor was very mild and is not something we would eat on its own, but it would be great with your favorite dip. 

Nutrition Facts and Ingredients

These chips have a lot going for it.  They taste great, have great texture and they’re actually pretty good for you.  We had the Sea Salt by the Seashore variety and the serving size for these chips is about 13 chips.  Those 13 chips contain 120 calories (40 from fat), 4.5 grams of fat, no cholesterol, just 70mg of sodium, 2 grams of dietary fiber and 2 grams of protein.  These are pretty good numbers considering many of the alternatives on the market have much higher values.  Combine that with the fact that they are certified gluten free and peanut and tree nut free, and you have yourself a great snack

Overall, we liked these chips a lot.  They are light, have good natural flavor and are pretty healthy for you.  It’s the perfect snack to enjoy with your favorite dip.  These chips are also available in Mild Green Mojo (green chilies with cheese and a hint of lime) and Dude Ranch (tangy sour cream and a perfect blend of herbs and spices).  These are definitely a snack we would buy again.  For more information about these chips or about Late July Organic Snacks, visit their website at: www.latejuly.com. 

Taste: These chips pack a great natural whole grain flavor in a light and crispy chip.  These would be perfect for dipping. 

Labeling:  The graphics on the package were very bright and fun.  The text is easy to read and all of the certification labels are on the bag. 

Packaging:  Sealed chip bag.

REVIEW:

 Kettle Cuisine makes a whole line of gluten free soups.  We have tried a few of their soups in the past and liked them.  So a few weeks back when they sent us their newest soup, Thai Curry Chicken Soup, we were eager to try it.

Cooking the soup is simple.  You have 2 different methods to choose from; microwave or stovetop.  For the microwave method, just heat it up in the microwave for 3-4 minutes.  For the stovetop method, just pour the contents into a pot and heat until it’s hot.  The box directions don’t give a time estimate, but in our kitchen, it took about 7-8 minutes.  No matter which method you decide to go with, you will have a nice hot bowl of soup in under 10 minutes. 

The story behind the soups is that Jerry, owner of Kettle Cuisine, makes these gluten free soups for his daughter, Kate, who is on a strict gluten free diet.  His goal is was to make healthy gluten free soups that also tasted good.  To live up to this goal, Kettle Cuisine uses only high quality ingredients in their soups.  They use chickens that are on a vegetarian diet and are raised without antibiotics.  No artificial ingredients are used and it is minimally processed.   

Curry is a strong flavor and can be a tricky flavor to work with.  Kettle Cuisine decided to go with Thai curry which is a lighter and sweeter curry that we think appeals more to the general public.  Thai curry is usually made with coconut milk, which mellows out the strong curry flavor.  We loved the flavor of this soup.  It had a nice mellow curry flavor with just a hint of spice.  We had mixed opinions on the texture.  Some thought it was grainy and others thought it was perfect so it’s all up to preference.  If you’re familiar with Burmese food, the taste reminded me of Burmese Coconut Chicken Noodle Soup, but instead of noodles, there was brown rice in it. 

Nutrition Facts and Ingredients

Kettle Cuisine puts a lot of care into their soups.  All their soups are made without artificial ingredients, are minimally processed and the entire line is gluten free. This particular soup is gluten free and dairy free.  Although I like to think of this soup as completely healthy, it isn’t.  It contains 330 calories, 11 grams of fat, 8 grams of saturated fat, 25 milligrams of cholesterol, 560 milligrams of sodium, 44 grams of carbs and 13 grams of protein.  While these numbers aren’t horrible, especially if you compare these nutritional values with those on canned soup, it isn’t the healthiest thing you can eat.  This soup does taste great though.  The key is to make sure you look at the nutritional values on the things you eat to make sure you are within your daily values.  So if you decide to have this soup for lunch and dinner, plan the rest of your day’s meals accordingly. 

Overall, we liked this soup a lot.  We had a unanimous thumbs up on flavor, but mixed feelings on texture.  If you like thick soups and the flavor of curry, this is the soup for you.  For more information about Kettle Cuisine’s soups, visit their website at: www.kettlecuisine.com       

Taste: This soup has great flavor.  The curry is very mellow, which we believe appeals to the average person’s palette.  The soup has mushrooms, chicken, brown rice, peppers, and bamboo shoots so it is a nice blend of different textures. 

Labeling:  The labeling on the package is great.  It is clean and easy to read and has a great picture of the soup. 

Packaging:  The soup comes in a microwavable bowl which is placed in paper box.

REVIEW:
Love Grown Foods out of Colorado takes pride in their products.  Their line of Oat Clusters & Love is made with high quality wholesome ingredients to promote a healthy lifestyle.  A few weeks back, Love Grown Foods sent us their entire line to try.  The other day, we tried their Apple Walnut Delight variety and were impressed.

Granola can sometimes be a tricky thing to master.  You usually want to add some kind of flavoring to them to liven them up a little.  This is where it gets tricky.  If you don’t add enough, it ends up being bland, but if you add too much it becomes overly sweet and just ends up tasting artificial.  Love Grown Foods has come up with the perfect combination of flavors for their Apple Walnut Delight Oat Clusters & Love.  They do it right too; free of refined sugar and high fructose corn syrup.  So what is their secret to sweetening up these Oat Clusters & Love?  The answer is apples, coconut and organic agave syrup. 

Nutrition Facts

The flavor of this Apple Walnut Delight Oat Clusters & Love is perfect.  The flavor of the oats is the main attraction here.  You can taste the sweetness of the apples, coconut and organic agave syrup but it is a very light flavor that is just there to enhance to flavor of the oats.  These sweeteners also help with the overall texture of the oats.  The agave helps bind the oats together into clusters and the apples add a nice chewiness to the mix.  Love Grown Foods did a great job selecting the flavors and ingredients for this product. 

One of Love Grown Foods missions is to promote a healthy lifestyle.  They believe in using wholesome ingredients that are good for you.  This means no added chemicals, refined sugar, high fructose corn syrup, trans fats, hydrogenated oils artificial flavors, preservatives and genetically modified ingredients.  Add to that the fact that it is certified gluten free and it is the perfect snack for even the most health conscious person. 

Overall, we liked this product a lot.  It had great texture and a nice light flavor.  It can be eaten alone, but we think it would be even better with yogurt or a parfait.  At $4.99 a bag, the pricing is on par with similar products on the market.  For more information about Love Grown Foods and their products, visit their website at: www.lovegrownfoods.com.

Taste: This granola is great.  It has just a hint of sweetness from the dried apples, coconut and organic agave.  The crunch from the oats and chewiness from the dried apples are the perfect combination of textures.    Although it can be eaten alone, it would probably be even better with yogurt or a parfait. 

Labeling:  The labeling is very simple.  I thought it was nice that they put their Facebook and Twitter addresses on the bag.  I also liked that they left a clear window in the labeling so you can see the product. 

Packaging:  The package is resealable, which is very useful with a product like this.

REVIEW:
After trying WOW Baking Company’s chocolate chip cookie and seeing how much we liked those, we decided to give their Oregon Oatmeal a try as well.  I’m not quite sure what Oregon Oatmeal is, but my best guess is that it is WOW Bakery Company’s own creation.  The packaging states that this cookie is “A new “TWIST” on an old favorite.”  By adding bits of cranberries and apricots they have improved a classic, and boy did they do a good job. 

Bite into this cookie and you’re truly in for a treat.  The cookie is soft and textured like your traditional oatmeal cookie.  The thing that surprised me was that this cookie was actually chewy.  Gluten is usually what makes a cookie chewy; the more gluten in it, the chewier it is.  WOW has obviously figured this out and has added chewy dried fruit to the mixture to make up for it.  You end up with a great tasting cookie with the perfect blend of textures.  I can honestly say that if I didn’t know prior to tasting it that it was gluten free, I would never have guessed it. 

Nutrition Facts and Ingredients

This cookie is all about balance.  As we talked about, the texture of the flakey gluten free cookie is balanced with the chewiness of dried fruit, but that’s not the only role the dried fruit is playing in this cookie.  The dried cranberries and apricots also play a big role in the flavor balance of the cookie.   Let’s face it, an oatmeal cookie on its own is pretty boring.  It has great texture and has some flavor, but in the end it is just an oatmeal cookie.  The addition of dried fruit to an oatmeal cookie is what makes it stand out.  WOW did their homework when selecting sweet dried apricots and tart dried cranberries.  The two balance each other very well and we all get to enjoy a great tasting oatmeal cookie that WOW has dubbed Oregon Oatmeal. 

After tasting this Oregon Oatmeal Cookie and their Chocolate Chip Cookie, we are becoming big fans of WOW Baking Company.  For a full list of retail locations or more information regarding this cookie, visit WOW’s website at: www.wowbaking.com.

Taste: This oatmeal cookie is the perfect balance of textures and the perfect blend of flavors.  It is a soft chewy cookie that is perfectly flavored with tart dried cranberries and sweet dried apricots.    

Labeling:  The labeling on this package is much like their packaging for their chocolate chip cookies.  The graphics are simple and clean.  One thing that I noticed about these cookies is that the “enjoy by” box is empty.  I’m not sure if it was missed or if you are supposed to fill it in yourself, but I think that is something the manufacturer should specify.      

Packaging:  WOW say that you should eat these cookies within 2 weeks if left out, but if frozen, they can last up to 12 months.  To make this possible, they have packaged their cookies in a freezer safe package.

Weekend Edition Hot off the Press #13: Certified Gluten Free

As you gather more gluten-free favorites (from our reviews), you may notice that a few have seals that certify them as “gluten-free” by different organizations. Since buying gluten-free products can have its risks, these organizations want to make shopping easier for people with gluten intolerance.

The Gluten-Free Certification Organization (GFCO) is probably one of the more well-known groups out there. It’s a certification program run by the Gluten Intolerance Group, which is a non-profit that supports people who are sensitive to gluten. The GFCO put its “GF Certification Mark” on products that meet a certain sets of requirements. Companies can start the GFCO certification process by first applying. After being accepted into the application process, the Gluten-Free Certification Organization will go to the manufacturing plant to inspect it and test for gluten in the environment. Then the product is tested and it must contain less than 10 ppm gluten. In order for the company to maintain the gluten-free seal on its product, it must agree to random product testing and plant inspections. The company and GFCO also have to renew this agreement annually.

The GFCO is just one program that was established to certify gluten-free products; there are also other gluten intolerance support groups that have set up their own certification programs. One such group is the Celiac Sprue Association (CSA), a large non-profit celiac support group that was started in 1977. The CSA has much more stringent requirements than most other groups. Testing, done at the lab of the University of Nebraska Food Allergy Research and Resource Program, must show that products contain less than 5 ppm gluten. That is less than a quarter of the gluten level proposed by the FDA (20ppm). The Celiac Sprue Association also reviews the ingredient list and their sources, especially harder-to-trace ingredients like vinegar or vanilla extract. They check how the product is being processed, the manufacturer’s plan to keep allergens out of the food, and even the materials being used in the packaging.

These seals and certifications aim to make eating and grocery shopping easier and less stressful for consumers with gluten intolerance. Next time you’re in the store, check out a few of your favorite products to see if they are sporting any of these seals!

REVIEW:
Who thought eating like cavemen could be so enjoyable? Paleo People, formerly Paleo Women, did. Laura, the woman behind the product, set out to create a granola that would cater to her CrossFit community. Her goal was to create a product that was made with ingredients you would find in the cave dweller days because food back then was at their peak for health and performance. What she came up with was this all natural granola.

Today, we tested their Cappuccino Crunch flavor granola. First thing you will notice is the very attractive packaging that is resealable and of course if you’re familiar with gluten free foods, you will see that this granola is certified gluten free by GFCO. Made with almonds, Brazil nuts, walnuts, pecans, sunflower seeds, coffee beans, raisins, and dried cranberries among other things, this granola is one of the bests I’ve had. I was feeling a little sluggish this morning and this granola gave me that little pick me up that I needed.

Open up the package and you will be greeted with the fragrant aroma of fresh coffee. The clusters of granola vary in size, but grab a handful and pop it into your mouth and you will notice the nice blend of different textures. The chewiness of the dried fruit, the full bodied texture from the variety of nuts, and the crunch from the coffee beans all come together to create the perfect texture.

This granola is flavored with honey, cinnamon and the sweet flavor from the dried fruit and with 7g of sugar in each ¼ cup serving, it’s reasonable. The flavor is perfectly balanced and not overly sweet like you might find with other granolas that are sweetened with high fructose corn syrup and ridiculous amounts of sugar. If you look on the nutrition facts and are scared by the 12g of fat, just remember that the main ingredient in this granola are nuts, which are naturally high in fat, but don’t worry because it’s the good kind.

This granola is good for just about anyone, except for those of you with nut allergies. At about $3.95 per 5oz package, the cost isn’t much different than your traditional granola. Don’t forget to practice portion control either. Just because granola is supposed to be good for you, don’t overdo it. Serving size for this granola is ¼ cup.

Taste: Great slightly sweet flavor coupled with a mild coffee flavor. Whether you like coffee or not, you will probably like this granola. The texture is also very nice with a blend of textures from soft to crunchy.

Labeling: Attractive labeling that is very easy to read. This product is also Certified Gluten Free.

Packaging: Resealable packaging that is great for people on the go.

REVIEW:

We are always in search of good gluten free crackers to add some crunch to our lunch. We have tried quite a few crackers and these are one of the better ones. If you are looking for a nice crispy cracker, look no further than these Crunchmaster Multi-Seed Crackers. They are made with brown rice flour, sesame seeds, potato starch, quinoa seeds, safflower oil, flax seeds, amaranth seeds, and tamari soy sauce.

These crackers are extremely crispy and, despite all the different seeds, are not overly hard. The crackers that we have had in the past have been great, nice and crispy, but because they contained several different kinds of seeds, there were hard spots on the cracker. If you have sensitive teeth, those hard spots might spell disaster. These crackers still have those different textures, but the seeds are much softer and easier to bite into.

If you’re looking for a nice crispy cracker with a nice blend of textures, then this is the cracker for you. These particular crackers are vegan, however almost all of the other varieties they make are not. Just something to keep in mind when shopping for these crackers…if you are vegan, make sure you read the label to verify that the variety you purchase is vegan.

Taste: These crackers tasted great. You can really taste the blend of seeds contained in this cracker. It is perfectly salted so they can be eaten by themselves or with your favorite dip. The texture is also very nice…perfectly crispy and not too heavy. Be careful though, because they are so good, you just might end up eating the entire package.

Labeling: You will find very attractive packaging around these crackers. They use nice appetizing colors and very clean looking graphics. You will also be pleased to see that these crackers are Certified Gluten Free by GFCO.

Packaging: The packaging is great. I understand that you just about always need to use plastic packaging on items such as crackers to preserve the freshness of the cookies. It’s nice to see that, that is all they used. No double packaging here.
