Prompt: Favorite Products

Fresh, frozen, boxed, or canned. It's that thing that replaces a product you can't eat—GF flour tortillas, GF cookies, GF beer, GF cake mix, GF crackers, GF pizza—and makes life easier for you.

Slide on into the comments and tell us about something that's always on your shopping list, or share a recipe that you like to use with a specific gluten-free product.

We're an international group, so not all these things will be available in all markets, but don't let that stop you from sharing. I'm always interested in what it's like to be gluten free—and what kind of products are available—in other parts of the world.

That sounds terrifying and I would like to know more.

They originally came from a family friend, and I have previously described them as basically just a brick of powdered ginger with just enough other ingredients to hold them together and disguise them as a bread product to trick the unwary. That's an exaggeration, but, like. Not by as much as one might think. They have a LOT of powdered ginger in them. They're pretty good scone texture as I recall, and I think the main flour is buckwheat. But you have to really enjoy that punch in the face by the powdered ginger, which is, uh, usually past my particular limit. My brother absolutely loves them, though.

Those sound too powerful for me, but it makes me happy to know they're out there in the world, tricking the unwary, and that your brother's a huge fan.

I told him they are medicinal and not recreational, and that he likes them because he is a recreational masochist. ...I may be overstating the ginger-ness a little. But, like. They are VERY GINGERY.
