About three years ago I had one of the most traumatic food experiences ever here. With a sever gluten and dairy allergy, I was sooooo excited to find this place. I bought a bunch of products togo and made sure to ask what flours were used so that I could be extra sure that it was gluten free, because honestly it all looked too good to be true. It was.
