"In this country, we love our snack cakes and chips. But what if you found out, suddenly, that some of your favorite snacks, like Twinkies or Girl Scout Cookies, were off-limits? Or that your child couldn't have Oreos in his lunchbox any more, or a Twix bar after a long day? More and more people are learning they must give up gluten, or choosing to forego it for their health. Though many supermarkets now stock gluten-free goods, and large food manufacturers have even begun selling gluten-free versions of their packaged foods, those products are typically at a considerably higher price, at lower standards of taste and quality, or both. And many of the classic snacks that we all remember simply will never be offered gluten free.
