These Gluten-Free Snacks Reminded Me of How Good Food Can Still Taste With Celiac Disease
I found out I have Celiac Disease rather late in my life. While this probably isn’t good for my intestines, it is far worse for my taste buds which had already grown accustomed to how good food actually tastes when it is filled with gluten. As a result, the transition to gluten-free snacks has been a bit harder than I initially imagined it would be. As it turns out, these gluten-free snack companies are basically counting on the fact that you don’t remember how good food can taste anymore, so they assume that anything with a crunch is going to suffice. But not me! I remember every bite, and gluten-free or not, flavor is equally as important to me.
All of this is to say, after several months of grueling trial and error, I have finally found a number of gluten-free snacks that not only are bearable but actually taste good (and by that I mean they taste as good as gluten-rich snacks.) Some of these snacks will be pleasant surprises that are naturally gluten-free while others are great imitations of foods I once enjoyed. Either way, they helped save my stomach and my tastebuds in one fell swoop. Scroll through below to check out the best gluten-free snacks to stock your pantry with.
