Glutino Discontinue Flax Seed And Fiber Breads

I'm ticked off because Glutino (Boulder Brand) has stopped production of their flax seed and fiber breads which were really great substitutes for whole wheat type bread and awesome when toasted.

 

Does anyone know of good alternatives in a similar style ?

I like

Canyon Bakehouse 7 grain bread.

Udi's has a flax seed bread and a multigrain bread with fiber, both of which we like. Udi's is also owned by Boulder Brands.

Thanks !  Looks like the Canyon Bakehouse would be worth a try, and actually the rye bread in their range might even be more interesting to me. Our local Target is listed as a supplier.

 

Udi's I know well, it's definitely OK, but as Boulder has killed their premium brands I'm out to find the best :)

Different perspective here. Once I tried Udi's bread, I stopped buying Glutino.

 

Tastes vary widely in gluten-free baked goods--one person's love is the next person's hate. I hear there are people who actually eat Ener-G bread.  :wacko:

Peter has a good point.  They are out there, wherever they are....

 

I like Rudi's Multigrain bread.  Definitely has to be toasted, though.  Makes great sandwiches and toast.  Haven't tried any other multigrain kind, I eat very little bread.  I would pick up the canyon bakehouse if I saw it based on the number of people that have recommended it, though.

Yeah Laura, I hope you can find some Canyon Bakehouse. The taste is very similar to Rudy's multi-grain, but the texture is better. The one time I tried Rudy's (on the reccomendation of the guy who runs the health food store) I found that it fell apart. I told him, so he tried the Canyon Bakehouse. Now that's the one he eats too.

Nooooo....lol, I can save them a bundle...simply purchase Sheetrock and have it cut into bread sized pieces. I hear the shelf life is identical too ;)

Ps...my guys prefer Canyon Bakehouse...then taste splits...hubs prefers Udis to Glutino and three Bakers. One young man prefers Glutino and the other ThreeBakers. I purchase them all based on sale prices.

LOL!

But the sheetrock doesn't have that nasty after-taste.

I tried Canyon hot dog buns. Worst thing ever. Texture was perfect but there was absolutely no flavor whatsoever. Are their loaf breads different? I'm put off of Canyon because of my bad hot dog bun experience.

But doesn't sheetrock have gluten? I'm actually serious here...lol...

From what I recall it's the drywall mud...but can't remember.  My lungs can't take the sanding process so I'm never around during an installation...search drywall using the forum's search feature and you'll probably find a few threads over the years on the subject.

Never tried their hot dog buns but I assume they are a white bread type of bun. Their seven-grain bread is more like those mult-grain breads we used to buy from the grocery store. You know, the dark breads with all the nutty bits in them? Lots of flavor and great texture.

Ok well I guess I'll give Canyon another try, with the loaf bread this time...

Thanks everyone for great input.

 

I have started reviewing as many products as I can and making a record of my impressions by taste, texture, sweetness, crumbliness, density.  So far tried seven breads.  I've been surprised how much better the breads are than when I first went gluten free - crumbliness and sweetness much improved...lots of pretty good products out there and of course its all a matter of taste :)

Pretty much it's next to impossible to get in a gluten free food rut when living in a small town--as soon as I get attached to a gluten free product, the stores stop carrying it. Canyon Bakehouse is my favorite but regrettably it didn't last long here, before the store discontinued it.

 

I've tried ordering it via mail before and the day that I got it delivered by FedEx, I saw another identical box from Canyon Bakehouse. I looked at them wondering if they had packaged my bread in two boxes, no they hadn't. The name on the second box was one of our former celiac support group leaders, apparently I wasn't the only one sad to see it go.

 

Now I usually just bake my own bread or go without. On the rare occasion that one of those two things isn't an option, I buy Udi's.

 

This is my favorite bread recipe:

My favorite bread mix is Pamela's.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
