Fortunately, there are now some delicious gluten-free treats in the shops that not only taste great but will also fill you up if you're feeling peckish.
We've rounded up our top ten favourite gluten-free snacks for you to try. Scroll down for the full gallery…
Joe & Seph’s Vegan Popcorn
North London-based popcorn makers Joe & Steph are launching a new vegan range of popcorn (air-popped, not friend) and hand-coated in natural ingredients. The gluten-free treat comes in salted caramel, vegan toffee apple & cinnamon and coconut & cacao flavours. Yum!

£2.99, Amazon
Gato & Co Cookies 'n' Cream
Gato & Co launched their new Vegan and Gluten-Free Cookies 'n’ Cream biscuits exclusively to Boots in January 2020 – think plant-based, gluten-free, dairy and palm oil-free and half the sugar of similar snacks.
£1.59, Boots
Raw Halo chocolate
Now, this sounds delicious. New to the vegan and gluten-free chocolate range are the 85% Dark Chocolate; Dark & Raspberry, and Dark & Himalayan Pink Salt. The bars are made from ethically sourced, plant-based ingredients, sweetened with coconut sugar and sustainably wrapped.

Plant Pops
Fancy trying an alternative to crisps and popcorn? Plant pops are popped lotus seeds which come in three flavours: Himalayan Salt, Smoked Chilli and Peanut Butter. The snacks are roasted, not fried, contain no artificial ingredients, preservatives or palm oil, are 100% vegan and gluten-free – plus each packet is also under 99 calories.
£1.20, Harvey Nichols and plantpopssnacks.com
Oaties
The perfect gluten-free biccie to dunk in your cup of tea. Nairn's Oaties are made from, you guess it, oats and have only 48 calories per biscuit. The snack boasts a 45% lower sugar content than the average gluten-free sweet biscuit – worth a try.
£1.29, Waitrose and Morrisons.
PROPERCHIPS
Who knew that a lentil could become a chip? Well, it can. This novel snack comes in Sweet Sriracha Chilli, Sea Salt, Barbecue and Sour Cream & Chive flavours. Why not give it a whirl?
80p for smaller bags in WHSmith, £1.99 for larger bags from Asda
Eat Natural bars
Still a firm favourite for snacking on the go, Eat Natural's selection of gluten-free bars are always a winner. We love their almond & apricot bar but their dark chocolate with cranberries and macadamia are pretty delicious too.
Almond & apricot bar, £1.50, Sainsbury's and most supermarkets
