It’s Time for Grand Rapids Gluten-Free Food Fair (May 19th 10:00am-4:00pm)

Mark your calendars!! The Sixth Annual Gluten-Free Food Fair is on Saturday May 19th from 10:00 am- 4:00pm at the Grand Rapids Delta Plex on West River Road. Do you find yourself wasting a lot of money on new Gluten-Free products because it looks good, but then ends up tasting yucky? This happens to me a lot. I love the Gluten-Free Food Fair because I am able to sample tons of Gluten-Free products which helps saves me money, because I now know which products I like and which products I don’t. Most importantly it is free! There will be a cooking demonstration and conferences you can sign up for. You can also purchase Gluten-Free products at the fair too. I will post more information when it closer to the time. I just wanted you to mark it on your calendar. Website: www.glutenfreegr.com/foodfair To keep this event free they need volunteers. So if you are passionate on getting the word out about Celiac Disease and eating a GF diet you can donate 2 or more hours of your time to help se

Their loaded Kielbasa sandwich (NOT GLUTEN-FREE) won the big prize. The article listed the menu which sadly had a lot of NOT Gluten-Free food, but then I noticed at the end of the article it stated it had a Gluten-Free Hot Dog & Gluten-Free Hot Dog Bun. Here is the menu items listed in the article: - Movie Theatre Candy o Sour Patch Kids (GLUTEN-FREE) o Skittles (GLUTEN-FREE) o Starburst (GLUTEN-FREE) o Airheads (GLUTEN-FREE) o M&Ms (GLUTEN-FREE) o Peanut M&Ms (GLUTEN-FREE) o Mike and Ikes (GLUTEN-FREE) o Milk Duds (GLUTEN-FREE) o Reese’s Pieces (GLUTEN-FREE), o Butterfinger Pieces (GLUTEN-FREE), o Whoppers (NOT GLUTEN FREE), o Airhead Extremes (GLUTEN-FREE) o Sour Gummy Worms (GLUTEN-FREE) - Chicken Sluggers (BBQ Marinated grilled chicken drumsticks NOT GLUTEN-FREE) - Pierogies (deep

http://www.thebutterflybakery.com/ A couple of days ago I received a package from Butterfly Bakery in the mail. I opened it up to find some Gluten -Free Mini Wild Blueberry Muffins and Gluten-Free Chocolate Chips. It was dinner time, but I just couldn’t wait till after dinner to eat one. I quickly opened the package and ate one of the Wild Blueberry Muffins and then I tried the Chocolate Chip Cookie. They were both delicious. Then my mom saw them, she isn’t Gluten-Free, and she had some. She didn’t believe me that they were Gluten-Free. By the end of the night there was only three cookies left and five muffins left. The blue berry muffin tasted sweet and smooth. It didn’t taste grainy or dry like most Gluten-Free muffins taste like. The chocolate chip cookie reminded of the Chip-Ahoy Cookies , which I greatly miss. This cookie made me so happy. Actually this cookie tasted better then a Chip Ahoy Cookie. Butterfly Bakery has many other products that are Gluten-Free. Here is a li
