Hello Reader,

I’m at a food trade show this week called Newtopia, scouting out exciting new gluten-free products to share with you. I will report back on my favorite discoveries next week.

I've been at the show all day, so I’m typing this newsletter late on Thursday night… a little tired, so please forgive any typos. 😊

Get Yer Box 🎁

While I was at the grocery store last week, I was reminded of why I started Good For You Gluten Free — and later, the Love Me Gluten Free subscription box.

Finding safe products can feel stressful and overwhelming. Label reading takes forever. And don’t get me started on how exhausting it is to run to three different stores just to get what you need.

That frustration is exactly why I created this community. I wanted to make gluten-free living easier, more joyful, and way less like a never-ending scavenger hunt. My goal is to help YOU discover safe, delicious products — without the overwhelm. 💚

👉 If you haven’t joined the fun over at Love Me Gluten Free, what are you waiting for?!? Our cart is open, and you can reserve our super high-value September box today. Use the code LOVEME10 for $10 off any subscription.

Spotlight: Michelle Glienke from Munk Pack

Munk Pack makes certified gluten-free granola bars that are delicious and surprisingly low in sugar — just 1 gram per serving.

But what really stuck with me is the story behind the brand.

Founders Michelle and Toby thought they were doing everything right when it came to healthy eating. They were athletes, fueled by sports drinks, and they followed the popular “low-fat” diet of the time. Junk food wasn’t part of their routine — yet by their late 20s, they were chronically tired and insulin-resistant. Decades of hidden sugar had finally caught up with them.

Tired of fighting fatigue with caffeine, they decided to make a change. Cutting out added sugar and processed foods was transformative, and out of that “sugar awakening” came Munk Pack — no-added-sugar snacks made with real ingredients that taste good and help keep blood sugar in check.

Want to give them a try? I spotted Munk Pack at Walmart and Sprouts, and you can find all their flavors at munkpack.com. Use our exclusive code LoveMeGF20 for 20% off any order. 🎉 Enjoy!

Things People Say That Make Us Cringe (Celiac Edition)

This week, someone said to me, “I’m glad I can eat gluten. I could never be gluten-free.” She didn’t mean any harm by it, but let’s be honest — it came off a little passive-aggressive.

Comments like this used to bother me. But instead of letting them get under my skin, I’ve learned to laugh at the cringeworthy things people say. Here are a few of the greatest hits:

• “I’d die if I couldn’t eat bread/pasta/pizza.”
• “You don’t look sick.”
• “A little gluten won’t kill you, right?”
• “Wow, I could never live like that.”
• "I love eating gluten!"
• "I’ll take extra gluten."
• "No one was gluten-free back in my day."

If you’ve been living this lifestyle long enough, you’ve probably heard a few of these yourself. What’s the most cringe-worthy thing someone has said to you?

Two New Products:

(1) Schar just launched a gluten-free pita bread, and I got to try it! It was absolute perfection. I toasted it and used it to scoop hummus. If you love pita, this will be your jam.

(2) Quinn just launched the first-ever gluten-free filled pretzel stick, available in two flavors: Peanut Butter and Peanut Butter & Honey. I'm dying to get my hands on them.

It's been a long day and I'm exhausted, and it's time to close shop for the night.

"See" you next Friday!

With Love,

Jenny 🩷
