Glutino Review and Giveaway
As we get older we do not get gifts as often as we would like on holidays in which gifts are traditionally given. Usually Valentines Day in my house consists of the “I Love You’s”, and the wishes we had cards to trade or chocolates to share, something different. I am always looking for new ways to express my love and show the one I love I do care despite the pathetic Valentines Day we usually have.
One day while sitting planning in my head the best surprise I could think of for my husband I received a box that was all i needed, I just did not know it at the time. As I opened this Valentines Day themed bounty, I was struck by how much it really was my lifesaver.
In the box I received from Glutino I got a 5.5oz bag of each of the following pretzel flavors: Honey Mustard Pretzels, New Buffalo Style Pretzels, Fudge Pretzels and Salted Carmel Pretzels. I also received a pack of 6 Multi-grain English Muffins and 1 Shake and Pour pancake mix.
The Buffalo Style pretzels were spicy but not overpowering for those that have spicy food sensitivities. The Honey Mustard had the perfect blend of mustard and honey – the sweetness and sour was spot on! The Fudge pretzels had a mild but sweet fudge that was not overpowering over the saltiness of the pretzels. The Salty Caramel had a nice aftertaste and the perfect amount of coating and salt. The Multigrain English Muffins were tasty and they absorbed the typical butter/honey regime. If there was one downside to the muffins is that because of the lack of unhealthy ingredients they did not last as long as we would have liked; the upside is that we know we were eating a fresh product. The Shake and Pour Pancake mix made it easy to make pancakes, with little mess but big results!
Gluten’s are the mixture of proteins found in wheat grass. Glutens are typically not water soluble but are what give dough’s the elastic nature. Even without these seemingly needed ingredients the products are addicting and also justifies the somewhat high $5.99 for a 5.5oz bag price.
Now Valentines Day around here usually consists of the same as the day before, but like I said when I saw this box I knew that it was the Valentine’s Day lifesaver I was desperately seeking. I used the Pancake Mix to make my husband Jason heart-shaped pancakes, I toasted a couple Multi-grain Muffin’s and added the required butter and honey. We decided we did not want to brave movie crowds, and with a beach walk we had an assortment bag of pretzels to snack on, with the perfect mix of sweet and savory. With 6 simple items, I was able to turn our normally boring day into a day full of flavor.
I would recommend any of the Glutino products! We plan to purchase these pretzels more often and for special occasions purchase the chocolate/salty caramel varieties.
