Well, I've finally ordered, received, baked and eaten Chebe bread. I don't have Celiac, my son does, but I taste all the foods to make sure it's acceptable. Can I just assure all those who are skeptical...Chebe bread is fantastic.

Why don't they make EVERYTHING out of Chebe bread? What's the point in eating anything BUT Chebe bread??? I was still chewing on a hot, chewy, delicious bread stick when I ordered 30 more bags of mixes. Is it only available on line?

I believe in God.

I love Chebe bread too! I found it at my local co-op...

What you can try doing is taking an empty bag (with the UPC code on it) to your fave. store and ask them if they can get it in stock and maybe order it for you and save you shipping.

Actually, you're best off buying it online. If you buy in bulk, they give you discounts, and I'm sure it would be more expensive at your health food store. Plus, there's no shipping at all, so you wouldn't save that at the health food store. That's why I haven't asked my healthfood stores to carry it.

I had to pay shipping. Who gives free shipping? I filled in an order for tons of frozen Chebe breads, but the shipping was almost EQUAL to the cost of the bread! It was over $200

So I got mixes and paid a far more reasonable shipping charge.

Coulter, I guess I'm lucky, my local co-op does carry it, but on things they don't normally carry, they DO offer case discounts AND because I am a member if I shop on Thursday or Friday I get an additional 5% off...

I guess it just depends on the store.

I made some Chebe breadsticks last night to go with our gluten-free spaghetti and my non gluten-free hubby ate MOST of them!!! They are really good.

It's free shipping if you buy directly from their website: http://www.chebe.com

No freaking way! I can't believe I missed out on that. Anymore wisdom/info/knowledge you have, I'd certainly appreciate in advance.

On the Chebe...that's about it:

- No shipping if you order from http://www.chebe.com

- Most people I have talked to like the Chebe bread mix as a pizza crust, rather than the actual pizza crust mix.

- And if you buy in bulk, the price goes down. For example, if you buy it in the smallest possible unit (that is, eight bags of it), it comes out to $4 per bag. But if you buy twenty-four packages (that is, 3 "cases" -- though the boxes aren't that big) it's $2.79 per bag. And for 6 boxes, or 48 bread mixes, it's $2.38 per bag. So the more you buy, the cheaper it is. And if you have a celiac friend who also likes it, and you don't want that much, you can order together and save money that way.

- $2 online discount

Then if you're only going to get a few bags, it's a good deal, but if you are buying or want to buy in bulk, then you're better off with the internet.
