Flash in the Pan

There was a brief time that we thought someone in the family would have to cut gluten from the diet. If you've never investigated the possibility of some kind of ingredient restriction, it can be a challenging thing. Whether gluten (which appears in so many things as to make your eyes cross), dairy, nuts, or what have you, it becomes a challenge to find things that don't suffer some form of "contamination." Desserts can be particularly challenging, given the often high amounts of flour, sugar, milk, and eggs. Some samples of ZenSoy organic pudding came in -- gluten-free, no milk or egg products, no nuts, and pretty good. The banana, chocolate, and vanilla flavors were decent. The texture felt a tough gummy, but that's really a quibble. The quality is good and if you need to avoid some common allergens, or if you'd just a switch from the usual, they're worth the try.
