8 Expensive Gluten-Free Foods That Are ACTUALLY Worth The Cost For Days You Just Need Carbs

Yes, I know, another gluten-related article. But you gotta write what ya know, right? Anyways, it's no secret gluten-free foods are expensive, and strictly buying gluten-free prepackaged meals can really put a dent in your wallet.

So I thought I can give some insight into what gluten-free foods you should avoid, to save your appetite and money.

1. Caulipower Pizza


Hands down the best-frozen pizza I've ever tried. Its made from cauliflower which is a plus because it's not made from bland rice flour or corn. It's very flavorful and doesn't taste like cardboard.

I recommend the Margarita pizza, however they also sell plain crusts so you can build your own.

2. Annie's Mac and Cheese


Annie's Mac and Cheese slaps. However, don't confuse this box with Annie's Deluxe Mac and Cheese, because its nasty and not the same. Annie's isn't as gas as Kraft or Velveeta but all in all its pretty solid.

Just follow the directions on the box, and add butter. (I also add tony's and hot sauce but you don't have to do that)

3. Synder's Gluten-Free Pretzels


Even if you're not gluten-free, stop buying regular pretzels.

These are 1000 times better, trust me. I personally don't like the twists as much as the sticks but it's whatever.

4. Canyon Bagels


These bagels taste like the real thing. There was a time where I would go through two bags a week. They're pretty dense which isn't something you would normally find in gluten-free breads and I think that's what makes them so good.

I find that they taste better lightly toasted with cream cheese or as a breakfast sandwich.

5. Krusteaz Bluberry Muffins


This isn't ready-made. however, I could not skip it on this list. These muffins are delicious and not dry and crumbly. Plus they make your whole house smell like Heaven.

My siblings and I love it when we can have them for breakfast because it's something different from the regular eggs and bacon.

6. Tate's Gluten-Free Cookies

That's it. That's the tweet.

7. Barilla Gluten Free Pastas

Barilla makes the best gluten-free pasta. It's not grainy or mushy and when it's al dente, it's perfect. I really like the penne or farfalle pasta but there's so much variety, you can be confident each one tastes as good as the last.

8. Udi's French Baguette

Listen, Udi's is the worst. Don't buy Udi's, you'll be disappointed every time. However, their french baguette? GAS. It tastes so much like the real thing I was shocked the first time I ate it.

It's worth all your money trust me, just don't buy anything else from Udi's.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
