Press Release Summary = People with celiac disease cannot eat foods that contain gluten, which often means foods that do not have the same taste or enjoyment of a "normal" diet.
Press Release Body = Salt Lake City, Utah - Celiac disease means a diet of gluten-free foods, but that does not mean spending a lot of money on tasteless foods.
"We understand the frustration of people afflicted with celiac disease, and we have dedicated a major portion of the resources of our company to find ways to make life more enjoyable for those who must eat gluten-free foods," explained Jeff Augason of Blue Chip Group.
Blue Chip Group began in 1972 when Augason\'s father, Phil Augason, created a nutritious, economical whey-based milk alternative, which he named \"Morning Moos\" (tm). The family-owned company has continually expanded to provide bulk foods for regular consumption and for storage, and has recently added a line of gluten-free foods that people with celiac disease are saying is a dream come true. The foods taste great, and are economically available in bulk.
The company offers bulk gluten-free flours, flour mixes, bread mixes and pancake mixes. Augason said they are soon to offer a gluten-free soup mix.
"We offer all the important ingredients for gluten-free cooking, such as potato flour, rice flour, white rice flour, soy flour, and xanthan gum," said Augason.
Gluten-free products currently available include items such as bread, pancake, bases, beans, baking powder, ascorbic acid, butter milk powder, butter powder, cheese sauce, chocolate chips, dried milks, flavorings, fruits, lecithin, margin powder, nuggets, oils, pizza, pasta, spice, popcorn, potatoes, raisins, seasonings, shorten powder, and sour cream powder.
"Our goal is to provide our customers with the highest quality, gluten-free foods at a price that they can afford. When the only treatment for your condition is to eat gluten-free, your whole world becomes a challenge, and an expense. We do our best to make life easier, and less expensive for those with this condition," said Augason.
The company maintains a web site at http://www.GlutenFreeBulkFoods.com.
