A very dear friend of the family was recently diagnosed with Celiacs Disease–her entire life makes sense now! She has had so many gastric issues and has been suffering terribly. According to the Celiac Disease Foundation, Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that can occur in genetically predisposed people where the ingestion of gluten leads to damage in the small intestine. It is estimated to affect 1 in 100 people worldwide. Two and one-half million Americans are un-diagnosed and are at risk for long-term health complications.
I’ve been working with her to find gluten free items she can afford. Ideally, she would be cooking from scratch but sometimes she likes a quick meal or to indulge a bit.

I took her to Walmart to check out their selection.
My friend, My Sister, and Demo Lady
We found a gluten free demo!
Friendly Demo Lady
Yummies!
She approves!
I was really surprised how good the Glutino Chocolate Chip Cookies tasted! I’ve had some AWFUL gluten free foods, but these taste like regular cookies!

I’m so excited that Walmart is now caring more and more GF products. I especially love the earth balance organic butter spread.
It’s awesome that so many diet specific foods actually are made to taste good – and that they’re being carried at stores you can find just about anywhere!
I love to see that Walmart is carrying so many brands of gluten-free foods! You should try the Quaker Popped chips! Delicious!
It’s so neat Walmart had this gf event! I want to try those cookies now!
I need to check out more gluten free options next time I am at Walmart. Thanks for sharing.
Everyone loves homemade, but who doesn’t love a quick meal sometimes? 😉 Those cookies are so good!
Those chocolate chip cookies were so good. I loved the bread from Udi’s too. I tried a sample of a grilled cheese and it was perfect.
I love that there are so many tasty GF options for those who don’t eat gluten!
