Gluten Free Review: The Gluten Free Mall


While gluten free is a more recognizable term now more than ever before it is still hard to find all the gluten free food, mixes, references, support for us gluten freers. Stores and their employee's have exponetially more information on GF and celiacs then just a year ago, but not enough. Its still hard to find all the special flours, foods, and support that one needs while navigating their gluten free life. One of my favorite places to window shop and read up on the latest gluten free news is the GlutenFree Mall.

" Since 1998, The Gluten-Free Mall has offered online shopping for the finest gluten-free foods and special dietary products—we are the original "one-stop shop" on the Internet for gluten-free food.
Our selection is unmatched—we carry more than 1,000 products, and over 130 leading brands—to meet the gluten-free needs of people with celiac disease, gluten sensitivity, autism, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADD, ADHD)...or for those who just want to eat a healthier diet.
The Gluten-Free Mall is famous for its outstanding customer service and excellent prices—be sure to check out the dozens of daily specials that we offer, and our huge selection of frozen foods. Ninety-eight percent of non-frozen orders ship by the next business day.
If you're not sure where to begin, just have a look at our "Bestsellers" box which appears throughout our site (see below). We also recommend these articles:" -Gluten Free mall

They are a well established company and offer endless information and yummmmmmy foods. Basically any food that you think you cant have because its riddled with that nasty gluten you can find on this site. They offer gluten free, vegan and HEALTY foods. I am not only concerned with eliminating gluten from my food , but making health conscious food choices. Their foods are often made with simple healthy non GMO ingredients.

Along with what feels like a limitless variety of foods, they have books, gluten free reviews and articles on the latest gluten free news. I subscribe to their site and The Journal of Gluten Free Sensitivity ( also found through their site) . The site is easy to navigate , but be careful because you'll want to spend all your money as you glance over and salivate over their scrumptous looking photos.

Here is a picture of their homepage. You see on the left their categories , so you'll have no problem finding what you're looking for.
 If you subscribe they send you coupons and specials. However, everyday they offer specials that you can find on their site. So, whether you are looking for something for dinner or something as obscure as GF insect repellent this place has it!

Next time you have a moment put those fingers to work on your keyboard and check them out.


Cheers

When you choose or are forced to eat gluten free one of the things you lose is the ease of eating. It becomes harder to just pull something out of the freezer and heat it up. Gone are the days or frozen burritos and other lazy snacks like that. Gluten free living involves a lot of preparation and cooking. I often find myself settling for raw fruits and veggies when I am tired and very hungry. However, more and more retailers are providing premade and frozen gluten free foods. Gluten free is more common now then it ever has been. Now it is easier to go to local health food stores and even grocery stores chains and find something gluten free. This to me is amazing because as a wife , student and soon to be worker , by the end of a lot of days I do not have time or will to cook food.

The last time I was at our local Whole foods ( a local natural ,organic health food store with an incredible amount of GF foods) I stumbled up Starlite Cuisines taquitos!! I was excited to say the least. Not only are the GF but they are also vegan. This is a hard combination to find because most vegan and vegetarian faux meats are made out of my arch enemy , vital wheat gluten. Anytime I find a gluten vegan combo I ALWAYS try it. They did an amazing job in both taste and texture.
While I am not one for eating pre-made food everyday , its a Godsend on my long days. They are perfect for a quick snack for your gluten free kiddos, a quick fix after a long night, or a great contributor to your GF vegan Mexican dinner night.


They are also much more healthy than your every day non GF taquito. They are Vegan, Gluten Free, Non GMO, Non Dairy, No Cholesterol, No Trans Fats, Rich in Protein, 100% Natural. Guilt free and easy!!

They come in imitation beef and chicken flavors!

Ingredients: Corn tortilla (white corn, water, lime), water, texturized soy flour, onion, mushroom, soy flour, cornstarch, yeast extract, salt, evaporated cane juice, salt, chili, cumin, thyme, natural spices, garlic powder, carrageenan, expeller pressed canola or soybean oil.


They can be found at local health food stores or one of my favorite gluten free online retailers, The GlutenFree mall ( which I will be reviewing later).

Give them a try!! This gluten free gal gives them five stars!!

Have a wonderfully gluten free day
