The Great Gluten-Free Indoors

Online shopping is the wave of the present, and future. Shoot, between eBay, Amazon and their peers, as well as food delivery services like Schwan’s and Peapod, a person could almost never leave their house to complete all their shopping!

That’s pretty cool, but what about a gluten-free home delivery service? I have to admit, I hadn’t thought of that idea much – and until recently, I had serious doubts about whether or not it even existed. Turns out I was wrong, very wrong! There are tons of online shopping portals for gluten-free food, and nearly as many sites that function as comprehensive lists for all of them, alive with links and everything! Let’s take a look at a few:

This handy site splits foods up into categories, and lets you know where you can go to order them. Snacks, meals, you name it, they have this site so categorized you’d have to try to miss something. And it’s very thorough – much of America is represented here. They even have beer, lots of beer!

This website functions somewhat as a top-ten list of sites at which to purchase gluten-free food for delivery. Some big names appear here: Amazon of course, but also niche offerings like Allergy Free Kosher and others. This is a definite bookmark!

This is a little bit different, and a really cool idea. Here we have a monthly subscription service that introduces you to new gluten free products – similar to more well-known services like Birchbox (makeup products), Stitch Fix (clothes) and BarkBox (probably self-explanatory!) And not only does it just introduce you to new gluten-free stuff, it’s feedback-based – so you can receive discounts, etc.

How cool are these ideas?! Now, I wouldn’t recommend being a shut-in, but winter is somehow approaching quickly… This could be just what we need!
