Snacks for Life
Products Tested: |
Katherine:
These were great
cookies. I love chocolate so the chocolate chip and chocolate chip coconut
where my favorites. All flavors were really good. Johnny: Excellent Cookies. These remind me of Grandmas cookies. They come individually wrapped and each cookie is huge. Timothy: Yum! Yum!. I agree these are soft cookies like Grandma's Cookies. All the flavors were fantastic with lots of bursting flavors. Great to satisfy my sweet tooth. Lucy: These are exceptional cookies. Large and soft; great to pack in your lunch or just needing a sweet treat that is healthy. These cookies have no transfats, cholesterol, dairy or refined sugars. I love the carrot cake cookie, since carrot cake is my favorite cake. I was able to eat a great cookie that tasted great and was healthier for me than eating a piece of carrot cake with icing. With these flavorful cookies you will never miss the icing, if you are a icing junky like myself. Manny: I like the fact that these cookies are soft baked cookies almost like a cake cookie. The flavors were great and I honestly do not have a favorite flavor. I liked them all. A big cookie and a glass of milk is perfect after coming home from my college classes. Nice and relaxing. |

The Crab Ladies Products Tested: Gluten Free Jumbo Lump Crap Cakes |
Katherine:
These are really
good. I normally do not like fish unless it is fried catfish but these were
really good. Johnny: I have actually never had a crab cake before, but I love them. Can I have some more please. Timothy: Delicious. My only complaint is that I am want some more to eat and we are out of samples. Yum Yum! Lucy: Let me just say these are exceptional crab cakes. When I have eaten premade crab cakes in the past they are usually over 1/2 bread crumbs and need some dipping sauce to make them palatable, but not these. Lots of crab and perfectly spiced. I did not feel the need to put anything on them; they were great by themselves. Manny: OMG, these crab cakes rock. They are big and tons of crab in each crab cake. I have never eaten a store bought crab cake that I liked. These are fabulous. |

Sweet Christine's
Gluten-Free Confections
Products Tested: |
Katherine:
These
are the best cookies I have tasted in a very long time. I love anything with
chocolate so I gobbled up the Chocolate Chips and the Chocolate Brownies.
Really hard to share. :) Johnny: I could not really tell these were gluten free. I loved the peanut butter cookies and the sugar cookie. The chocolate chip and the chocolate brownie were really good too; huh Katherine Timothy: Excellent products. They tasted homemade and very fresh. I loved them all, even the oatmeal raisin cookies. I really think even non-celiacs would love these products. Lucy: Christine's cookies are splendid. Timothy, sorry I hogged up the Oatmeal cookies and you did not get alot. I have not had any oatmeal in over ten years and well we got the package and those oatmeal cookies were calling my name so I wanted to sneak just one but it turned into three. A non-celiac guest found about them and loved them with me so sorry guys. I thought all the products were great with a homemade feel to them. The chocolate brownie was really special too. Many gf brownies are dried out tasting; not these, they were really moist and rich. Manny: Wow, these gluten free products we are sampling are just getting better and better. The cookies and brownie did not taste gluten free so I think non-celiacs would love them too. I like the fact that they are organic too. Excellent brownies, chocolate chip, sugar, peanut butter cookies. I am going to take Lucy's word that the Oatmeal Raisin Cookies were rockin too. The best part of these gluten free cookies is you can dunk them in milk and they don't fall apart. They were wonderful with a cold glass of milk. |

Katherine:
I really liked these
cookies especially the chocolate chip cookie. Very sweet, crisp, and just
the way I like my cookies.
Johnny:Wow these are some really good cookies. I would have never known they were gluten free. The coconut in each cookie is great. I love coconut in everything. I really liked the Raspberry one, it reminded me of the flavor of a pop-tart. That is a good thing. :)~ Timothy: I loved these cookies especially the raspberry ones. They were the best and they were hard for me to share with others. I just wanted them all for myself. I am going to have to get my mom to get me some more of these. I love this company. Lucy: I loved all the cookies. They were nice and crisp and they dunked very well in cold milk. I loved the coconut cookies so much dunked in milk that I actually took some and crunched them up and poured some milk on them. It was similar to a great granola cereal. I was in heaven. I believe I could make a cookie crumb crust out of thee coconut cookies, but hmm I ate them all and could not test my theory. I am going to order some and try this with my crumb recipe and then make a coconut cream pie. I am making myself hungry. Excellent products, I loved all the flavors. Manny: These cookies rock. The best non-gluten cookie I have tried. I liked all the flavors, but my absolute favorite was the chocolate orange cookie. These were awesome. |

Product Tasted: No Oats Oatmeal cookies. |
Katherine:
This cookie is strange looking, but boy they are incredible. Love these.
Yum. Johnny: I do not usually like chewy cookies but these are really nice. They taste like they really have oatmeal when they don't have any in the ingredients. Timothy: The cookie is great if you like oatmeal cookies, which I do. I love oatmeal and cinnamon mixed together. Lucy: At first I was skeptical of this cookie, it does not look like your traditional cookie and I agree with Johnny, I really like a more crispy cookie, but this is an exceptional soft cookie. You would never know you were not eating oatmeal and the spices used are just right to give you that old fashioned oatmeal cookie taste. These will never last long in our house. Manny: I really liked this particular cookies. It is different from any cookie I have ever had, but it was very tasty never-less. |

Ener-G Foods Large variety of G.F. Products Product Tasted: Ener-G's Gourmet Crackers |
Katherine:
Wow, I have been
begging my mom for crackers and pretzels and she found them. This cracker is
really good tasting. I like it with peanut butter on them. Johnny: This cracker taste like a Club Cracker. The only problem I have with this cracker is that it tends to crumble very easy. Other than that it is something I would eat again. Timothy: Yum, I am with Katherine. Peanut Butter is the way to go with these crackers. Lucy: I am really impressed. I do not usually care for G.F. crackers, but these are rather good. They do tend to crumble and you have to be really careful when spreading the peanut butter. I really liked them plain and with salad. It has been a long time since I have had a cracker I have actually enjoyed. Manny: This cracker is not bad. I like the more sturdy saltine cracker, but I have tasted other G.F. crackers and if I could not have gluten like my friends here I would certainly eat this cracker. I do think that it is too crumbly, but that is a small price to pay for a good cracker for Celiacs. |
