Eskal - Gluten Free Wafer Fingers

Really really good. ;)

I managed to finish off the whole packet in 24 hours, not unusual for me when it comes to great tasting biscuits.

I love that they come as finger sized wafers - perfect for icecream sundaes and a quick snack.

Cottee's Gluten Free Products

All Cadbury Schweppes products (including the following brands: Cottee’s, Cadbury® Schweppes® Pascall®, Europe®, Red Tulip®) clearly identify the presence of all cereal products on the ingredients list on the product labels.

Cereals without Gluten
If cereal products do not contain any source of gluten then the source of the cereal (e.g. maize) is not listed.

Cadbury Schweppes may identify products which do contain a presence of cereal ingredients in the following ways:

Contains Gluten
This statement is present where the product contains wheat starch, wheat flour or wheat dextrin as the principal gluten source although other grains, such as oats or barley, may be present. Levels of gluten and gluten containing materials may vary significantly.
This is true for all products manufactured by Cadbury Schweppes in Australia or New Zealand.

Cereals with Trace Gluten below 10 ppm (parts per million)
This statement is present where the product contains less than 10 mg/kg (10 ppm) of gluten - (source is wheat glucose syrup or caramel colours where the level of gluten is below detectable levels).

Nudie Juice - Gluten free!

Good news! Nudie juices are fine to drink :) Smoothies have some dairy in them, if you're lactose intolerant also like me.

All the nudie drinks - both juices and smoothies, are all gluten free.

Turkey Meatballs

Another meal suggestion - turkey meatballs! Gluten free (no flour necessary) and very tasty.

You'll need turkey mince and an egg, plus anything you like to put into a meatball! Roll a small portion into a ball and then bake for 20 mins.

Too easy.
