A few sweet items
A gluten free shopper is ALWAYS on the lookout for a ‘new’ product and with a few minutes to spare today before an appointment, I had a quick browse of The Reject Shop in Stockland Townsville.
The Menz Honeycomb is available in caramel, milk chocolate and dark chocolate making decisions difficult.
The Mac’s shortbread and biscuits had been discussed on Coeliac Qld facebook page, but this was the first time I had seen the product in the shops.
Also available are Candy Corner Chocolate Coated Peanuts and Chocolate Coated Sultanas.
At $2 to $3, these are priced to please any gluten free shopper.
