Essential Baking Company Bread

So I stop in Costco today for Splenda and am meandering to the front of the store and happen to see a huge display of bread. I'm like whatever. Then I notice it is two packs of gluten free bread. I squeal with delight and RUN to the display. At this point I am quite sure everyone in the area is looking at me like I'm a freak. I was holding a chicken so I tell my husband to hold it so I can read the ingredients. Suddenly I'm bouncing up and down and saying "I can eat this! I can eat this!" Two loaves, $7.99. No freaking kidding! So I bring it home, it is full of seeds and crap. (I used to buy that kind of bread all the time on purpose, loved it.) It is like 15 carbs and 1/3 of that fiber. It is packaged to be shelf stable til July, but once opened says is only good for a week in the fridge.

 

Anywho, I get home and butter up a slice and share it with my husband. I like a gluten eaters report since I'm so biased. It was love at first bite for me. He liked it okay too. It is soft, but with the seedy crunch. Just.... omg. I can not recommend this enough. Especially at $4 a loaf.

      Hi I've been told I need a MRI on my bowels , I was booked for a colonoscopy, but because of my sever back issues and trapped nerve it can't be done , the nurse told me I will have to have a manitol drink a hour before the scan , I'm just a bit worried has I have issues with sweeteners like even a little,  I get a weird throat and ears and I've read it is a similar substance , not sure if anyone has had one of these scans or could give me some advise on the drink prep thanks in advance 😄

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
