It's time for.... Gfree Haul #2... the October edition!
Anyway, this post is all about the snacks that I've been munching on this month and want to share with all of you lovely gfreers out there.
So, without further ado...
MUNCHIE 1: Glutino Chocolate Vanilla Creme Cookies
Even before I was diagnosed, I wasn't a frequent buyer or eater of Oreo cookies-but when I did get the chance to eat them, boy, did they satisfy my chocolate cravings! Let me tell you now that these cookies taste THE SAME as the regular Oreo cookies...so all you gfree Oreo fans out there, get excited to once again experience the crunchy, creamy dream of these chocolate cookies. Only thing with these cookies is that the sweetness ratio is still the same and I'm not a huge fan of foods that are too sweet, so I'll take out 1/2 point. Rating: 4.5/5
MUNCHIE 2: Trader Joes Crunchy Curls- A Potato Lentil snack
Okay, so this snack I'm divided about. The picture on the front looks incredibly good, but the product itself... meh, it's alright. It certainly deserves the title of being "crunchy" but these curls didn't wow my taste buds. They have a kind of peppery taste and you can definitely taste the lentils. The only thing I like was that the curls aren't dripping with oil like most chips- its light on oil so it will decrease your chance of getting heartburn while you're eating these. Conclusion: if you're not a fan of lentils or pepper, my advice is to stay away from these. But if you like the latter, and you happen to be vegan and gfree, well then, this may be the perfect snack for you!

MUNCHIE 3: Glutino Gluten Free Original Crackers
I absolutely am in love with these crackers. I was always a big fan, in my gluten days, of those Carls water table crackers, and these totally have replaced them. These crackers are SO addicting. They have a bit of a sour aftertaste, that is not unpleasant (kinda like sourdough...?) and they are perfectly crunchy and just the right circumference to stuff the whole cracker in my mouth. Too bad the box only has two packages. I can easily finish one bag in one sitting and be tempted to open up the next one right afterward. These are a must try for all cracker fans and they work great as appetizers with different toppings- peanut butter, salmon, cheese, you name it!
