Welch's Strawberry Fruit Snacks

gluten free, not labelled dairy-free but no dairy ingredients

Yummy gummies.  These come in individually-wrapped portions, 10 bags per box.  I like the flavor of the strawberry gummies,  I haven't tried the other flavors yet.  If you want something that tastes all-natural, this isn't for you.  If you want to eat something that is a lot like candy, this is great.

I found it at: Martins. I haven't yet checked to see if Walmart or Kroger has them.

Ka-Me Original Rice Crackers

Kosher, gluten free, no dairy ingredients but comes from a factory that processes milk products.

Rating: ***** 5 stars!

Nice crisp, neutral-tasting cracker.  I used them to dip hummus- no taste to interfere with the dip.

I found it at: not sure!! Martin's in the Asian food aisle? Kroger?

Dream Latte Mocha Coffee and Almond Drink

Kosher, gluten-free, dairy-free

Though I like the texture of the Gevalia individual iced coffee a little better, this one has fewer chemical ingredients and more certifications (actually says Kosher, gluten-free, dairy-free on the container, unlike Gevalia).  Nice flavor, definitely needs to be shaken well before drinking.

I found it at: Kroger, more expensive at Target

Gevalia Iced Coffee with Almond Milk Mocha

This is a single-serve tetra pack (shelf stable) coffee with almond milk.  It also comes in vanilla and caramel flavors.  I have not tried caramel, because caramel isn't usually my thing, but I prefer the mocha flavor over the vanilla.  The vanilla is too strong for my taste.

I really like the creamy texture of this as compared to the Dream Latte Mocha singe-serve packs, and the taste is great.  However, the Gevalia has more chemically ingredients in it.

I found it at: Kroger, more expensive at Target

Chex Gluten-Free Oatmeal: Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal

Move over Quaker Oats - I actually like the texture of this oatmeal better, and unlike you, Chex/General Mills has actually bothered to make a gluten-free option that is also very affordable.

I don't like the Quaker Oats apple and cinnamon instant oatmeal, but this stuff seems really different. There are big chunks of apple, and not too much cinnamon.  The portion also is more generous than the Quaker Oats packages.  I can hardly finish this one, and it fills me up so I don't get hungry an hour later on a busy morning. Comes in individual packets, same easy prep as other instant oatmeal.  Just add boiling water, wait a couple of minutes.

I found it at: Kroger, Martins (but they only have this one), Walmart
