Visiting with the Free From Market

I was visiting my old stomping grounds in the Southwest suburbs of Chicago, and stopped in at the Free From Market, a great shopping destination that has loads of tasty and convenient allergen free products, including fresh Gluten Free baked goods. Peter and Shelly DeRousse, started Free From Market when their daughters were diagnosed with severe multiple food allergies and celiac disease. I really like the DeRousse’s philosophy: next to no products with “may contain” food labels and no genetically modified organisms, sweeteners or dyes. I saw Peter at the FAAN walk last September and his dedication to making sure all the families stayed safe was impressive, so if your children’s allergies are severe, Peter is someone you should really talk to…

The Free From Market is located in Orland Park, IL on South LaGrange Road, (708) 590-6205. Some of the products I picked up were Really Great Food Company Coffee Cake Mix (I have yet to try it, but am dying to…) and Kinnikinnick cinnamon sugar donuts.

Keep an eye out allergenistas, the Free From Market is hosting their annual GF bread tasting event at their store again, sampling of over 25 varieties of GF and allergen free breads. I got the inside scoop from Peter that this popular event will be held in April…
