Gluten Free/Wheat Free Maxwell?s

The beginnings of this company are like so many other Gluten Free companies, we are a labor of love. In 1984 when I was a senior in college my father was diagnosed with Celiac Sprue. Unfortunately he was diagnosed with Lymphoma at the same time. Then there was no clear link between my father?s cancer and Celiac Sprue. Now of course we know differently, he got the cancer because he had Celiac Sprue and was not on a gluten free/ wheat free diet. Back then there were so few foods available, and forget about going to a restaurant. He would try to order and explain what he couldn?t have and the waiter would look at him like he was crazy.

When my son Maxwell was 6 years old and experiencing stomach pain after every meal we had him tested for Celiac Sprue (because of the family history) and the diagnosis came back positive. It was then that with the help of my family I  founded Maxwell?s Kitchen to provide great tasting alternatives for the Gluten free/Wheat free market. When you see a Maxwell?s Kitchen product on the store shelf or online or in a restaurant you can be sure that it is safe for anyone that is on the Gluten free/Wheat free diet, because it was made for people that I love very much, and I hope that you enjoy our products and join our Gluten free/Wheat free family.
