Most of these brands I either have never heard of or have no experience with.

However, I do like the Glutino Cranberry Breakfast Bars and Pamela's Chocolate Cake. :P

Glutino: Pretzels

Glutano: Haven't tried

Pamela's: Tried most, but I'm odd...I didn't like most of the products

Ener-G: I just use the flours

Barkat: ?

Gillian's: French Bread Rolls, they work great as hamburger buns

I know it's not listed, but my favorites are anything by Kinnikinnick, and the Namaste chocolate cake. And one thing I could not do without is Tropical Source dairy free chocolate chips, they are amazing!

Schar is REALLY good - I haven't found it in the US yet, but all of their products are delicious - especially their pastas and cookies.

Glutino pizzas, breakfast bars, and pretzels are really good too.

Schar- never heard of it

Glutino- pretzels, crackers, cereal bars, bagels, Gluten-Free pantry baking mixes (fave. sandwich bread is amazing)

Glutano- corn pasta and chocolate-o's (like oreos)

Pamela's-chocolate cookies :)

Ener-G- never tried it, but I haven't heard great things

Barkat- never heard of it

Gillian's-french rolls

and you're missing one of my favorites...kinnikinnick!!
donuts, bagels, sunflower flax bread, cookies
Gluten Free since 10/07
Mildly Lactose Intolerant, slight intestinal symptoms after eating milk products, but easily corrected with lactase enzyme
Endometriosis- DX'd 5/07

Gluten Antibodies- "negative"...don't know exact numbers, am highly suspicious...
DXed celiac 12-19-07 via genetics/elimination diet- DQ2 allele

Brother with Celiac, aspergers...his tests were all negative (he didn't have genetics done), including endoscopy, but he definitely is at the least gluten intolerant...highly suspect my mother has it as well- she has hyperthyroid, fibromyalgia, hemochromatosis, and now colon cancer, and she has been weak and exhausted and just generally sick. She's going to get tested.

Their breadsticks and crackers are wonderful, but expensive. Haven't tried their other things do to additonal food allergies.

Glutino

Everything we've tried has been good.

Glutano

Everything we've tried has been good.

Pamela's

Haven't tried because of additional food allergies.

Ener-G

Daughter likes the cinnamon rolls, tapioca rolls and buns and the rice starch bread. Also the round pretzels.

Barkat

Haven't tried because of additional food allergies.

Gillian's

Haven't tried due to additional food allergies.

Orgran pasta and tomato sauce in the can is good. But perhaps more suitable for children. Tastes like Spaghettios.

Tinkyada pasta is great!

Enjoy Life products are great! Daughter does not like the cereal, trail mix or no oats oatmeal cookies.

IgG, me: Eggs, oysters OAS : Almonds, pistachios

IgG, daughter: Wheat, spelt, lentils, peas, peanuts, almonds

Do any of you have a Whole Foods Market? They have an entire line of Whole Foods gluten-free breads, pastries, etc. and they are really good. They even have hamburger buns that are very good.
