GlutenTox Home: Home Gluten Detection Kit Review

GlutenTox Home Gluten Detection Kit Review + Giveaway

I am going to let you in on a secret – when I began this blog I had never heard the words gluten free and Celiac Disease. As time passed I began reviewing more and more gluten-free items, as well as attending the Natural Products Expo for the past 3 years. I have not only learned about Celiac Disease, but also what items in food is dangerous and why it is so dangerous.

Since learning about this silent threat, I feel passionately about making sure that people are aware there are tasty gluten free options available. While not my original path, I am happy that the road led me here.

There are times that people with gluten sensitivities get homemade gifts from friends or family and it is unknown if the item is gluten free. Thankfully there is a home test that in about 10 minutes can tell you if there is gluten – the GlutenTox Home Test Kit.

Pipcorn: Ghee Delicious Mini Popcorn Review

Best Binge Snacks While You Binge Watch and a Pipcorn Giveaway

I have a confession – I am awful at watching new movies. For the life of me I am not sure why I am so resistant, but I am. The most ironic part is that 9 times out of 10 I end up loving the movie or show, to then proceed to binge watch until I can no longer see clearly.

The most recent occurrence of this is with Game of Thrones. My husband had read the books and was eager to watch the series, but waited until I was willing to watch. Unfortunately 6 years has passed, and we are yet to watch, so he gave up hope and began spending lunches watching the series. As luck would have it, I finally got intrigued as to why this show was winning all the awards and began watching it on the weekends.

Generally we do anywhere from 5-7 episodes at a time, which makes the need for bingeing snacks that much more important. Here are my favorite snacks to binge on while I binge watch.
