GoPicnic ready-to-eat gluten-free meals

Posted on August 3rd, 2009 by Alison 6 Comments »

People often come to this website looking for easy gluten-free to-go lunch ideas. I have given suggestions and more suggestions. And now, I’m going to tell you about a to-go lunch and snack idea that I think is pretty cool. In fact, I read about it on the website Cool Mom Picks. So there you go!

gopicnic1You know those boxes of snacks that are now sometimes offered on planes? GoPicnic ready-to-eat meals are just like those, except they have entirely GLUTEN-FREE ones! Plus, they are much healthier than the usual “lunchables”-type meal. (Actually, I think GoPicnic is being sold on Alaska Airlines, but not gluten-free.) These meals need no refrigeration, so they would be great in the car, on a plane or to take to camp!

There are many gluten-free choices such as Zesty Break, Go Trek, Sports Munch, Explore Munch, Safari Munch (also casein-free), and Anywhere Break. Another cool thing: 5% of sales of gluten-free products goes to the University of Maryland Center for Celiac Research!

    I had heard of these products but have never used them before. What a great idea! I will have to look into them further. Do you know if they make “nut free” packs too?

    Rhonda,
    It says on the website that all the “Munch” packs contain no peanuts or nuts. But I would also check all the allergen statements at the bottom of each pack description!

    These look really good for when you’re traveling and need a to go lunch. I like that they have a fundraising program for schools to earn money.
