In January, I hit the trade show floor once again, this time finding the best of the best in San Francisco. The Winter Fancy Foods show is put on by the Specialty Foods Association. This show is definitely not all gluten-free, or even food allergy-friendly. But if you hunt hard enough, you can find some of the newest and tastiest new products out there, that are safe for those with celiac disease.
