Metropolitan Gourmet Ramps Up Flavor for Celiac Sufferers with New Gluten Free Breadcrumbs

    PARSIPPANY, NJ, July 16, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Metropolitan Gourmet is making healthy food tastier than ever for people with gluten intolerance and celiac disease.

The breadcrumbs are made with six simple and pure ingredients: water, brown rice flour, white rice flour, sugar, salt and corn free baking powder. There are no extra artificial ingredients, just a pure, delicious taste.

Furthermore, the company produces their gluten free breadcrumbs in a completely allergen-free and AIB Certified facility in Parsippany, New Jersey. There are no traces of dairy, corn, tree nuts, sesame seeds, soy, wheat, gluten in any of their foods. Their breadcrumbs are lab tested, Celiac Support Association approved, Certified Kosher, and Non-GMO Verified.

It is estimated that over two million people suffer from celiac disease in America, and many more have a milder degree of gluten sensitivity, which can still have a significant impact on their lives. The effects of gluten intolerance are wide and far-reaching; it can cause abdominal pain, chronic diarrhea, constipation, bloating and IBS, all of which can be incredibly painful for the sufferer and, in the case of celiac disease, even lead to damage of the lining of the gut. The only way sufferers can prevent these symptoms is to completely remove gluten from their diet.

Gluten is found in wheat, rye and barley, which essentially takes normal bread completely off the menu for people with gluten intolerance. Although the number of gluten free bread options has significantly increased over the past few years, many people find that they simply don't taste as good as the real thing. Metropolitan Gourmet is on a mission to change that.

A company spokesperson explained that they were inspired to create Metropolitan Gourmet after struggling to find clean, tasty gluten-free breadcrumbs: "We wanted to create all-natural, artisanal breadcrumbs so that people with celiac disease and gluten sensitivity can enjoy their favorite foods once again. Our customers use our breadcrumbs for frying cutlets, meatballs, cookies and a whole host of other classic dishes; the authentic taste they provide makes a huge difference to the overall flavor of a dish, and since they're baked fresh each day, they even taste better than normal wheat-based breadcrumbs."

Those wishing to sample the great taste that Metropolitan Gourmet gluten free breadcrumbs have to offer can find them in Shop Rite stores across New York and New Jersey, or order online at www.metropolitan-gourmet.com.
