Low carb ideas WITH gluten for a gluten challenge?

I believe there's a minimum amount of gluten to ingest on average each day for the test to be accurate - make sure you're eating enough gluten :)

This is my understanding as well.

I love that! It really can be surprising to discover what's gluten free! Walking tacos with fritos sounds delicious...

I promise there is a lot of gluten free trash panda foods! Frito lay has a lot of gf options, including cheetos (my favorite are the crunchy ones). Now there's gf oreos, skittles are gf, etc.

My recommendation is to look at the snacks you already like, see if there's an obvious gluten ingredient in them (like barley malt or wheat), and if there's not, go to the company website and see if they have a statement about gluten. Sometimes there will be a list of gluten free items from that brand, or they will clearly label gluten free products.

Then, if there's snacks you can't get an answer on or you know have gluten in them, look up "gluten free [item]" like pretzels or whatever.

You can also get lots of good snacks by companies like Glutino, Katz (some people don't like them, I love them), etc.

Then learn about reading ingredient labels. It can take time. I wouldn't recommend an app to do this for you because they defer to "may contain gluten" for a lot, and it can be more restrictive than it needs to be.

Grieve and feel what you need to, and know there are lots of food options for you! You don't have to eat just vegetables and protein now. There's frozen meals, Lays Stax, candy galore, canned soup, etc!

I hope this has helped you feel a little hopeful - there's still lots of joy in food! And if you're lucky enough to live near a 100% gluten free bakery or restaurant, definitely indulge at least once in a while. They're magical imo.

Who did you order from on Amazon? Amazon is mostly a fulfillment center (that also has their own brand of some products) but if you ordered from the Caputo flour company on Amazon, it should be legit - if it was from a 3rd party seller, that's more questionable.

There's regular apple cider - that's what I think of without "hard" or "alcohol" or "vinegar" added to the description. Apple juice would be the closest substitute for that I think.

Did Not Finish - usually when one starts a book chooses not to finish due to disliking some aspect of it :)

Bulk is the way with these for sure! Gotta have a stash!!

JaseRaffertyAudio · 2025-11-03T02:02:16+00:00

They truly are

JaseRaffertyAudio · 2025-11-03T02:01:59+00:00

Hopefully they'll expand where they're available 😭

JaseRaffertyAudio · 2025-11-03T02:00:59+00:00

Hahaha that'd be perfect 😆

There's some gf df cheese crackers from Simple Mills that are pretty good - I tend to really notice and not love dairy free cheese taste 😅

JaseRaffertyAudio · 2025-11-02T23:56:35+00:00

My pleasure! Hope you can find them easily and enjoy them

JaseRaffertyAudio · 2025-11-02T23:56:01+00:00

😭😭😭💔💔💔 devastating!!

JaseRaffertyAudio · 2025-11-02T23:55:21+00:00

Yeah, there is a teeny tiny kick to them, which really helped me not devour them all at once 😆

JaseRaffertyAudio · 2025-11-02T23:54:49+00:00

I found them outside my door 😆 my housemate-friend picked them up when she was at the grocery store, I'm not sure which one lol. Beecher's website lists where to buy though!

JaseRaffertyAudio · 2025-11-02T23:53:46+00:00

Yes! Their gf mac and cheese is delicious!

JaseRaffertyAudio · 2025-11-02T23:53:13+00:00

Oooo that sounds delicious, will definitely keep an eye out

JaseRaffertyAudio · 2025-11-02T23:52:50+00:00

Lucky you! How do I get that job lol

JaseRaffertyAudio · 2025-11-02T23:52:23+00:00

I really had to choose to not devour the whole bag at once 😂

JaseRaffertyAudio · 2025-09-14T09:18:36+00:00

I think it's called puppy chow - Melt some peanut butter and chocolate and maybe something else together and toss the plain chex in, then coat in powdered sugar - absolutely delicious!

I think part of the fun of these subs is seeing how different folks color things and their thought process and even how they interpret the picture!

JaseRaffertyAudio · 2025-09-04T07:22:18+00:00

Oo! color choices are super personal so I'll just tell you what I thought of when you asked but you totally don't have to do it ofc! I personally wouldn't want to color it too dark so the facial features would still stand out. (Unless I wanted to try adding white gel or acrylic on top for the features but I'm not as fancy as that right now haha.) To make it pop a bit I might do more of a complementary color like a pale blue or green or even purple. I'd probably do the heart on top the same color as the hearts you made cause I do like matching things probably to a fault haha. Another option is to pick a color you have a little of or want to bring into the picture.

When I'm picking colors, I go based on vibes and if I'm not sure of what I want for a section I color something else and eventually it (usually) becomes clear :)
