(NaturalNews) Good-tasting, wheat-free crackers, breads and cookies are hard to come by. Sure, there is an ever-growing amount of gluten-free products available, but many of these products have an unpleasant taste and texture that turns people off to the idea of eating anything that is gluten-free.
Fortunately, there are some companies that produce wheat-free, gluten-free snacks that actually taste good, contain whole, healthy ingredients, and are certified organic. The following is a sampling of some of the best brands in the
industry:
Mary's Gone CrackersLike many others in the
health food industry, Mary's Gone Crackers was birthed out of a health-conscious mother's endeavor to provide for the health needs of her and her family. After discovering that both she and her son had celiac disease, Mary Waldner began formulating her own gluten-free
snacks.
Packed with nutritious
whole grains like quinoa, brown rice, brown flax
seeds, amaranth, millet and
chia, Mary's Gone Crackers can actually be considered a gluten-free
superfood snack. The company also utilizes a proprietary method of formulation that does not extrude the
ingredients using high heat, preserving the myriad of delicate
nutrients.
Mary's Gone Crackers makes cookies, crackers, "Sticks & Twigs" (similar to pretzels) and cracker crumbs. All of the
products are certified organic, kosher, non-GMO,
vegan and delicious. Even the cookies are soft and chewy, and are made with low-glycemic
natural sweeteners. All the products are produced in a dedicated wheat-free, gluten-free and nut-free facility, ensuring no cross-contamination.

protein will love the offerings of Muso From Japan. This company makes two delicious, grain-free and oil-free crackers that pack a decent protein punch.
Muso's organic Green Pea Chips and Mungbean chips are uniquely high in protein because both the pea and the mungbean are high in protein. These delicious chips make a great, lightly-baked snack without added
grains. Both contain two simple ingredients: either
green peas or mungbeans, and sea salt.
