Last night I discovered a gluten-free brand I'd never heard of before:

http://www.kinnikinnick.com/

I got their chocolate chip cookies and bagels. While at the checkout, the woman at the register asked if I had tried their donuts. Donuts? I haven't had a donut in a very long time. She showed me where they were in the freezer section. I almost didn't get them, but hey, I'm on vacation.

The woman told me that people rave about the cinnamon sugar donuts, so I tried them. I think I warmed mine in the microwave a little too long, but it was mighty tasty. Six to a bag for $5.99 sounds steep, but if you haven't had one in a long time, they're worth it. They have that homemade donuts that go with cider consistency. Yum! Since they have no preservatives you store them in the freezer for the next time you have a craving.

The chocolate chip cookies are crunchy like regular Chips Ahoy and don't fall apart as much as Newman's Own wheat-free cookies. But they're not as good as Pamela's Kitchen chocolate chip cookies in my opinion.

I tried a bagel this morning. It was kinda dry. Even with some buttery spread on it, I had to keep putting more on it to be able to get it down, followed by gulps of tea. Maybe it would be better with jelly on it? I'll try that next. Hey, two out of three ain't bad.

The great thing about this company? They make gluten-free things that I've missed terribly. Why haven't I seen their products before? Turns out they're from Canada, eh. And I don't live close to Canada, so that's probably why I don't see their stuff on the shelves of my local health food store. But I'm going to tell my local health food store about them when I get home.

Check out the Kinnikinnick website to find out about the origin of their name and more about their products. And if you're near Lebanon, NH, you can find quite a few of their products at the Lebanon Health Food Store on Hanover Street.
