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.

Oh yep Simple Mills! I actually looked it up and still managed to type it wrong. Canyon Bakehouse is my absolute favorite gluten free bread but it's not available in all the stores, so that Udi's bread will be a good substitute. I'm not a huge fan of Udi's generally, which is why I was surprised how good this new bread was. It's edible and it's decent in comparison to other breads but they are really bad so ehh.

As far as crackers go, I tend to not eat many because a lot of the gluten free ones have weird aftertastes, which can be brown rice flour but might be other stuff so I have tried a wide variety and found most of them lacking but I'll have to pick up a crunchmaster to try.

I order directly from Canyon Bakehouse, after my husband brought home a loaf from Costco. Six at a time is easy for me since they have extended life packaging AND I also own a very large stand alone freezer.

Another cracker brand I like is Blue Diamond Nut Thins. I've enjoyed every flavor I've tried and I'm working my way through all.

I don't eat crackers every week...maybe once a month but it's nice to have a box or two in the cupboard. So when the husband brings home something intriguing from the grocery store he's just discovered or I'm all inspired by a commercial on television and need to make salmon pate they're available.

Blue Diamond nut thins are an absolute staple in our house.

I also really like Cassava Root Chips from Plant Snacks. Despite the name, they're really more like crackers than chips. The vegan cheddar and goat cheese flavors are particularly nice.
