Going Nuts!

For those of you who are living a gluten free lifestyle, or know somebody who is living a gluten free lifestyle, you have probably noticed how expensive it is. A one pound bag of gluten free all purpose flour costs around $7 at the grocery store, and for someone who makes their own bread, and mostly everything else, a bag does not last very long. I felt like I was spending half of my paycheck on food. My mother suggested I try finding somewhere online I could order things in bulk, to see if I could get a few dollars off. I ended up finding a site that helped me save my budget, and be able to get products I had trouble finding in a regular grocery store.


Nuts.com (formally Nuts Online) is a fantastic place, for not only people who are on a gluten free diet, but for anyone looking to buy products they use often in the kitchen. I was able to get a pound of gluten free all purpose flour from their website for $2.99. They carry flour, pasta, candy, nuts, and all sorts of other goodies. I was able to place an order yesterday that included three pounds of all purpose flour, one pound of almond flour, and two pounds of pasta for under $25. I placed the order at 2pm yesterday, and the package had shipped before I went to bed last night. When I was leaving for classes today, my package of goodies was waiting for me on the front porch, and I didn't pay for special shipping. I have been extremely pleased with the quality of products I have received from this web site. The gluten free all purpose flour is better quality of a product than the stuff that I got at the grocery store. It has a more familiar texture, and is a lot less grainy.


I absolutely adore this website, and can't wait to try the new pasta I ordered. I hope you will take a look at their website. I know I will be placing an order at least once a month! :)
