Progresso - Three Bean Chili with Beef & Crackers- edited

5 stars.  A normal soup that happens to be gluten free.  It's delicious!  I loved it!  Bought 3 more cans for when I'm recouping form surgery.  And high in fiber which is necessary since whole grains from wheat have been eliminated from my diet.

Crunchmaster Multi-grain Crisps - Original flavor - Very tasty.  Most rice chip/crisp things are nasty I'm discovering.  Way too strong of a ricey flavor.  But theses are more crunchy and nutty and GREAT!

EDITED.....no longer 5 stars.  I've had it three times and it's not my favorite anymore  3-4 stars.

5 Star Spaghetti! - Mrs Leepers Corn Spaghetti

Hallelujah!  5 stars!  This stuff tasted normal!  And although it broke itself into much smaller than long spaghetti sized pieces, it did not go mushy.  It was fabulous!  Only problem was when I went to dump it in the strainer.... I discovered it was lying there in huge clumps.  I started to cry.   SEriously did.  Cause I was so frustrated.  Everything else was ready to eat.  And when I put the pasta into the hot water I totally stirred it for 3-4 minutes to avoid clumpy sticking.  ARGH!

So I put it back into hot water and one at a time with two forks separated each strand.  And cooked it again for 3-4 minutes.  I seriously can't believe it worked.  What a pain in the butt.  But in good news, every single kid asked for seconds. YAHOO!'
