Well, I was lucky enough to get my hands on some GF cookies that actually make it okay to like cookies again.

Glutino has a line of cookies that will fool your tastebuds into thinking that you’re cheating on your diet. And really, isn’t that what it’s all about. Making yourself feel like you’re indulging?

Okay, maybe that’s just me. But here are the details, aka my opinions, anyway.

Chocolate Chip

These are good. They are crumbly because they’re supposed to be, and they are not too dry. I don’t know about you but I seriously hate it when cookies are so dry they stick to the roof of your mouth. It’s just not natural. Was I jumping for joy over them? Not really. They kind of left an after taste. And I can’t really find anything that describes it.

Oh wow, did you hear that? It’s the sound of life as we know it changing. I don’t have a descriptive word…something in the universe is out of line. Anyway, they’re good. I wouldn’t pass them up if they were around, but I won’t have dreams about running through a field of flowers with them either.

I say on a scale of 1 to Awesome, these score a Decent.

Chocolate Vanilla Creme

I started out a little apprehensive. The picture makes them look good, like really really good. I didn’t want to get my hopes up.

So what were the first words that came out of my mouth when I tried them?  “Oh hello”.

Yes, that’s right, say hello to my new friend the chocolate vanilla creme cookie. Once upon a time there were Oreos, and now there is Glutino. Moist and sweet without being sugary. They crumble the right way and are fantastic for dunking in milk. I personally think they add a little pizazz to the taste of my soy milk. But I’m also a deranged lunatic so don’t take my word on it, try it for yourself.

On a scale of 1 to Awesome, these score a Jumpy Claps.

Vanilla Creme

Dude. No seriously. Dude. Like wow. Not to slam the beautiful little ladies, but move over Girl Guides/Scouts, there is a new Sheriff in town.

These cookies are pure, unapologetic, addictive greatness. Who needs groceries when you can eat Vanilla Creme cookies? That’s it, I’m giving up salad and I am living off of coffee and cookies.

Well, at least for now. Like until Husband gets here and I have to actually share. I don’t share. So I guess I’ll have to make him dinner. Meh, he’s not going to be here for a few more weeks – cookie time at my place!

On a scale of 1 to Awesome, these score an Epic.

Look for them where Glutino is sold near you. And if you’re as lazy and house bound as I am, you can now shop on line at www.glutenfree.com. Oh how the internet just seems to make everything a little easier – if only I could get the internet to do my laundry and clean the house, I’d be one happy Celiac!

Happy Cookie Eating Everyone!

For obvious reasons, the Dough Boy is no longer Freebie Five. I miss him, but can’t justify having him on the list.

But, today I’m proud to tell you all, that there is something out there that can make the yearning for the Dough Boy a little less painful. It’s Glutenfreeda Foods, Inc line of ‘Real Cookies’.

Much like the Dough Boy, these cookies come pre-made and can be baked straight from the freezer. I was hesitant at first about how these would turn out – I’ve grown skeptical about pre-made GF products. But in the spirit of Glutastic, I cleared my preconceptions and sent Fiance to the kitchen to bake them.

The first thing I noticed was the smell. Our kitchen and living room smelled of freshly baked cookies, they smelt like the kind of cookie that is normally packed with gluten. I knew these had potential! Then came the taste test, any premade dough has to pass the freezer test. Frozen cookie dough should taste just as good as it does cooked. And these tasted great frozen. That was two checks in the pro column. And then, before I knew it, they were ready. It was time to try the final product – and to thank Fiance for slaving over a hot stove all night to make me cookies.

The Verdict: Damn Tasty.

These cookies were insanely normal. There was not a hint of GF’ness about them. Yes, GF’ness is a term, just like anything ending in ‘ish’. We hoovered them and have already added the next container to the grocery list. We found these at Superstore, I heart Superstore more and more everyday!

Try them, love them, thank me later!
