Every year the Natural Products Expo East comes to Baltimore and for three straight days I partake in a treasure hunt for the best gluten and dairy-free products of the show.
From the numerous samples of sweets, snacks, meals, and drinks I tried over the course of my Expo-ing, it was fun to be surprised by brands who were new-to-me or new products from some of my favorite brands.
This post serves as your guide to my Expo East reviews, as I tend to break them up into subcategories culminating in my top five products from the show. Bookmark this page to have easy access to my reviews as they are published.
I always like to share some few non-food adventures. Always a favorite on the show floor, Bob (of Bob’s Red Mill fame) and his merry band always bring smiles at the start of every day with their brass band.
Also, I got to run into some of my blogger friends such as Pam from www.imaceliac.com, Erica from celiacandthebeast.com and Andrea (@BaltGF on Twitter).

I can't wait to see Sonoma Flatbreads near me. I love a good pizza and have recently been trying to cut dairy out, too. It is so hard to do. But it wouldn't be as hard with great products like this.
I'm sad I just now found out about this – I'm new to going Gluten Free and I live right outside Baltimore – would've been a perfect opportunity to learn and discover more.
yum! the path of life looks good
That's what I love the most about Expo East- many of these products are already on store shelves or will get there soon!
I really like that there products are very good and is dairy free. I have heard of there products but never tried them they just look like a good snack to eat…
Looks like you had a great time! I've been enjoying the reviews of all the things you found. So many things are making their way on my list of things to look out for 🙂
