Sumo Salad
Sumo Salad have always been helpful to me when it comes to eating gluten free. They've been patient when I ask them about the food content and whether anything is totally wheat free.
You can even ask them to make a custom salad for you! I've yet to do that but I'm faithful to their chicken salad!

Gluten Free Gourmet lemon lime cupcake
My husband was more than happy to test run this cupcake out - lemon and lime, I think it is (he gobbled it up so quickly I didn't get a chance to note it down).
Happy Holidays everyone!
May your Christmas be gluten free :) I'll be reporting back with how my gluten free holiday dinner went in a few days.

Mrs May's Pumpkin Crunch (wheat free)
I was on the hunt for a quick snack that was wheat free and delicious (and new to me!)
DVC in Castle Towers had a whole rack of Mrs Mays products and I dived right in!
The Pumpkin Crunch is tasty and a great nibbley snack - and is Wheat Free, Dairy Free with NO preservatives or additives (which is even better).
I'll need to go back and grab a few more bags for my handbag!
Mrs May's is an American company

I found my Mrs May's at -

Level 4 (Opp. Uncle Pete's Toys)

Go Natural - gluten free snacks
I recently tried the Apricot & Coconut gluten free Go Bar, and it was excellent! Perfect for a gluten free snack on the go, I stuck it in my handbag and whipped it out when I got peckish.
I picked up my Go Natural products from Coles, health food aisle.
