The gluten free beer that was poured at the Gluten Free Expo alone made it worth the trip. That’s not to say that there wasn’t a lot of great food and friendly people… there were. But the beer tasting was just so much fun!

Here were our favorites, in alphabetical order:

Bards

Bard’s is one of the originals… true gluten-free pioneers that made my transition to a gluten free diet so much more enjoyable.

In 2008, we found out that the Wellshire Farms "gluten free" dinosaur-shaped chicken nuggets that my son had been eating ever since he went gluten free (for 2 1/2 years) contained gluten - at levels high enough to make two children with gluten/wheat allergies have life-threatening reactions. We were enraged at the company and sad that our son's first two and a half years on the gluten free diet may have been compromised.
