    One of the bigger bummers about going gf means missing out on wonderful events like Cookiemonster's annual cookie exchange party. I was wondering if there were enough gluten-free bakers here on LTH to warrant an exchange amongst ourselves... if so, I'd be very happy to host the gathering.

    (I thought I'd try to gauge interest before scheduling the thing; hence posting here instead of events.)

    Hi,

    I was at Continental Sales & Salvage over the weekend, which is located just south of Midway Airport.

    They had a number of gluten free products from pasta with sauce, bread mix, pasta and gnocchi mixes as well as two 25- or 50-pound bags of gluten free flour. Everything was priced rock bottom. When it ends up at Continental Sales it may be past its freshness date, a discontinued item or some an lot.

    I bought a 50-pound bag of evaported cane juice (aka sugar) for $14.99. Some bags were rock solid, I found one that was soft and took it.
