I've been having to eat completely gluten free because of celiac disease for over 10 years, and I've tried a ton of foods during that time. I reorder most of these every month. I'm an avid snacker and these are some of my favorite snacks and drinks. They're also some of the most affordable tasty snacks I've found and a lot of them would be great toddler snacks and snacks for kids. It's taken a lot of trial and error and searching to find snacks without my various allergens, which include oats, almonds, and corn. I don't eat anything that says it's processed on equipment where wheat or gluten is also processed so you can rest assured these are truly gluten free. They're also all dairy free, though be sure to read the ingredients for processing equipment warnings if you have a dairy allergy.

Whether you're drawn to the meditative pull of a slow pour-over, the alchemy of grinding your own beans, or simply want your morning brew to feel a little more sacred, this is a collection of ideas, products and inspiration for treating coffee as the small, everyday ritual it deserves to be.
