Schar Gluten Free Products

The other day when I was in Kanab, Utah, I was delighted to find two Schar products on the shelves at Honey’s Jubilee. It has been almost two years since I found that box of Biscotti Con Cioccolato at a little store in Maryland. I still remember the taste of them, but since I have not seen anything of this brand in a store since then, I haven’t had them again. And since they were so good, I decided to buy a box of their Penne Pasta and one of their Table Crackers.

That night when we got home, I made some Italian Mushroom Stew and served it with the Schar Gluten Free Penne Pasta. It was by far the worst gluten free pasta I have ever eaten. I was shocked, because their cookies were sooo goood, pure gluten free heaven in a box. They were very gummy, and stuck together, even though I cooked them according to the directions on the box. They were too chewy, and sort of stuck to my teeth. I had to throw half of them away, which really hurt because they were quite pricey at $4.89 for a 12 oz. box. Oh well, now I know.

But, the next day for lunch, I had a chef salad, served with Schar Gluten Free Table Crackers. The crackers were just crunchy enough, and had a marvelous taste, almost like my pre-gluten free Club Crackers that I loved so much. They hold up to peanut butter, and one of my favorite ways to eat crackers, spread with butter.

I will definitely be buying these again. These were also expensive, at $4.89 for a 7 oz package, but they come in three individually wrapped inner packages.

Schar, whose name has two dots over the “a” that I can not figure out how to put there in this blog, has a wide variety of products. These include breads, pasta, flour, snacks, cookies and more. With two out of three that I have tried being top notch products, I won’t hesitate to try others if I find them on a gorcery shelf somewhere.
