 Excellent Resource for Gluten Free Living December 27, 2008
This wonderful guide takes the guessing out of shopping for gluten free foods. We take it with us on all of our grocery shopping trips. The guide is worth every penny in gold.
 Good guide, could be more thorough December 23, 2008
Although it is a helpful guide to products that are not MADE with gluten products, there are products listed that are "manufactured in a facility that also manufactures products made with wheat...". The front of the book states that these products are included and that is on page xii. For those of us that are extremely sensitive, these products can contain enough contamination to make us ill; therefore it is advisable to triple-check the allergen warning. Not all products will have this, especially condiments and such things. I use this guide with the thought that if not all the manufacturer's products are gluten-free, I will not be buying anything from them unless it is certified gluten-free.
That being said, it is still a helpful guide and I do carry it. I have accidentally glutened myself by not triple-checking thoroughly the product labeling as well as the manufacturers ingredient for their similar products.
Nice guide, I wish it eliminated products with possible cross-contamination because it is a very handy resource.
A Must Have for Anyone With Celiac Disease December 18, 2008
As a parent of a toddler recently diagnosed with Celiac Disease, I have found this book to be VERY useful. At first, I thought I would only be able to shop at the costly specialty foods store, but now I know that there are many gluten free foods I can find at the "regular" grocery store. I know some day I will master label reading, but in the meantime this guide has been invaluable. It fits right in my "mom purse" so that is an added plus. My only complaint is the way the book is layed out. Everything is listed in alphabetical order by brand under the type of food it is. The problem is, if you aren't sure what category the item you are searching for would fall under, there is no way to cross-reference to find the correct category.
Finally! I can grocery shop without fear! December 15, 2008
This is an extremely helpful book for those who are gluten-free. It's the right size to take with you to the grocery store. I used to read labels until I was cross-eyed trying to figure out what has gluten and what does not. This book doesn't answer all of my questions but it is a huge help.

We paid over $24.95 plus postage for this book, advertised to be small enough to carry to the grocery store. It has jillions of items and I was impressed and thought this would really help with my husband's celiac problem. THEN, I started getting ALERTS! on my email to "take off PACE - all products - on page XX --- take off all Campbell Soups on page XX - If they could find this out after I bought the book, why couldn't they have delayed publishing the book until they did all their research? It is a lousy buy and I wish I had our money back! I wouldn't give it one star.
