My son is on a gluten free & casein free diet which boils down to no wheat and no dairy products. Finding edible snacks that fit into his diet has been quite a challenge. We struck a major winner with the Glutino Pretzel Twists and they had long become a grocery staple. The last trip we made to the grocery store (natural foods/special diet section) when we passed by the endcap that had the Glutino pretzels I asked my son to get his pretzels and load them in the cart, and to my surprise he picked up the Sticks instead of the Twists. After checking to verify they would still be A-OK in terms of ingredients.. in to the cart they went while I quickly and quietly said a prayer that they taste the same and were just a different shape.

Holy Pretzel Sticks! I love these
I really didn't think that gluten free pretzels could get much better than the Glutino Pretzel Twists, but it is true. These pretzel sticks are amazing. My son could eat most of a family sized bag by himself if we let him (we don't) and they are absolutely a snack of choice. I have caught him more than a few times going into the pantry and grabbing the big bag of these to munch on. I wish my store sold them in the snack size bags because that would provide better portion control, it is way too easy to eat too many of these from the larger bag.

You would never know that these are gluten free, and this has been proven. I put these out at my son's birthday party on the snack table (all the snacks that were within child reach were gfcf safe) and adults and kids gobbled them right up. The sticks look just like any other pretzel stick (each stick is about 3 inches or so long) and have just the right amount of saltiness with lots of crunch. For a yummy pretzel snack, I'll pay the $6 a bag - they are that good.
