Took in the lovely Cleveland weather at the East Bank Arts Fest while enjoying refreshments at Beerhead. Super excited to find out that they have some g-f options on the menu – including pizza. Even more excited to find out they offer Glutenberg beer at the bar!!! It is ever so nice to be able to sit with friends enjoying their cocktails and be able to participate:)

Check it out. Enjoy the river activity. Take a walk. Refresh.

Goodman Gluten free

http://goodmanglutenfree.com

On 2 recent trips to Heinen’s, Mayfield Vlg. and Shaker, I came across Goodman gluten free offerings in the bakery department. The items included on the shelf that day were bread, brownies, snack cake, and cupcakes. I purchased the bread, cupcakes, and the snackcake.

The bread is a small loaf, about 12 slices, at $6.99. It has a gummy textural look but I found it was not at all gummy. It toasts great, holds up with toppings, and makes a great toast for sandwiches including hot sandwiches where most g-f bread collapse, crumble and become messy. We’ve used it for BLT’s, breakfast sandwiches, and burgers. All with much success and great flavor!

The cupcakes (6 minis) and snackcake, $5.99 each, are perfect size for light dessert. I found the cakes and frosting to be quite sweet but the texture and flavor of both was outstanding.

Goodman Gluten-free are not only g-f but free of dairy, nuts, and soy.
