[GFCFrecipes] GFCF candy

Lee and everyone,

With gluten intolerance and allergies to corn, dairy, soy, orange,

chocolate, and on and on, there hasn't even been a cough drop much less a

piece of candy in the diet for years! At TJ Maxx a couple weeks ago, I found

a candy from England, actually labeled gluten free: Uncle Joe's Mint Balls.

They are amazing! I bought all three cans in stock and have asked my sister

to be on the lookout for them at the store near her (1,000 miles away).

Haven't found a US distributor yet but I will keep trying. They're just

peppermint oil, cream of tartar, and cane sugar. Within a few days of buying

them, a cold and sore throat had me so glad to have them for soothing the

throat. They're not " mean mint " like Altoids -- kind of gentler but still a

nice, clean minty taste.

Maybe if enough of us pester our regular stores to stock them, there will

be one more treat for people with multiple food allergies.
