Cookies - Mi-Del Gluten Free Chocolate Sandwich Cookies

Growing up gluten free as a child was especially difficult when it came time for cookies. Oreos were off limits, I'd occasionally just eat the cream centers. I longed to enjoy an Oreo cookie.

Mi-Del makes a cookie that is essentially is an Oreo knock off. My wife who can actually eat real Oreos tells me they are almost exactly the same except the gluten-free cookies are a bit crunchier.

I couldn't find a site for Mi-Del only for their distributor, Liberty Richter.

Nutritional Information:
3 cookies per serving for 160 calories, 50 of which are from fat. There are no transfats which is always a good thing. There are about 18 cookies in a pack.

The local health food store sold them for $3.19 a pack, but I'm sure it's cheaper elsewhere.

Rating:
Excellent copy of the real thing, Oreos. Perfect for young celiac children with cookie envy.
