gluten free vancouver

My goodness! Your comments about Patsypie sound as if you have a personal axe to grind rather than provide a truly unbiased review. I've tried several Patsypie products over the past few years and have yet to find one that wasn't above average. In fact, the chocolate chip cookie you disparage is one of my favourites. My son and husband also like them and they're not even celiac. If there is a better gluten free chocolate chip cookie out there, I have yet to find it. The peanut butter cookies and cranberry biscotti are also excellent. As for cost, they are actually less expensive than many other cookies out there. The bags are larger and so are the cookies. I like your blog, but this was very disappointing, if not outright nasty.

hi anonymous,

the purpose of our cookie of the week feature on the blog is to write a personal review of gluten free cookies that we have tried. there are so many varieties on the market now, so we thought it would be fun to periodically review various cookie brands and write an article about what we think. it’s an honest, and personal review that is not meant to be nasty or offend anyone…we are talking about cookies after all!

andrea and I feel it is important to remind our readers that blogs are essentially online diaries, and our blog is just that. it is a place for andrea and I to express our experiences about living with celiac disease, and hopefully spread awareness about the seriousness of this condition.

celiac disease is not a fun condition to have, and one of the main reasons for starting our blog was to have an outlet for us to talk about the realities of living with this condition. it’s not just about that great gluten free recipe, or that awful gluten free cookie you just paid a fortune for. what about being single and dating? how do you tell your date to rinse their mouth out before kissing them? how about all of those long meetings you have to sit in at work where everyone is eating muffins and sandwiches in front of you? or what about raising a child that is not celiac? do you raise them gluten free too? this is exactly the perspective we each bring to this blog.

since being diagnosed with celiac disease six years ago, andrea and I have been so impressed by the fact that the quality of life for those with celiac disease has considerably improved with the growing availability of gluten free products. and in a perfect gluten free world, everything would taste great, every restaurant would have gluten free menu’s, cross contamination would be a concern of the past, grocery stores would have large gluten free sections, Ed’s would open several stores throughout the lower mainland…but that is not reality. not every product is going to be favored by everyone, it is just that simple.

I am not sure how the review seemed to be biased …it was simply that andrea didn’t like the cookies and thought there was not much value for the cost. we are not here to just write positively about everything we try, and I think our readers enjoy our perspective. for this reason, if we don’t feel a restaurant or product is safe for someone with celiac disease we don’t recommend it, no matter how great that restaurant or product may seem.

thanks for your comment.
