Aldi Fresh Gluten Free Bread = Love

Everyone, hop in your car and drive to your nearest Aldi!  They've got FRESH gluten free sandwich bread now and it is SO good! (Fresh as in not frozen, not like someone is standing there baking loaves!) We paid $3.99 for a loaf of their whole grain.  AMAZING! First time I've had non toasted bread since January.

It's their LiveGFree brand. That place is becoming Celiac Mecca. :wub:

Do you have a label you can snap a picture of?  Wondering if it would be safe for our allergy set.

That is good to know!!!

I can't do a pic right now, but the label says that it's dairy free, gluten free, nut free, soy free, and wheat free.

Thanks for checking.  Egg is one of ours too and that's usually the kicker for us but that is SO awesome for those who are dairy and but free!!  Fantastic!  Thanks again!

Holy cow - I read this first thing this morning and then picked up two loaves around 10a.  One loaf is almost gone!  My son (the latent celiac) ate TWO sandwiches for lunch and begged for more bread.  My husband who really, really dislikes gluten-free bread devoured some.

 

Good call!

I live in Small Town, USA, but I'm still going to check our Aldi's and see if they have it. It sounds great!

The Aldi by me has a different selection of gluten-free stuff every time I go, so I can't rely on finding something I found before.  Curse you, Aldi!

My Aldi's hasn't been able to get it yet, but they have a shelf tag, so they plan on it. I have been able to buy quinoa and gluten free pasta at my Aldi's though.

I might go check Aldi for bread. But I will ask them to get me the still frozen loaf from the back. I don't eat that much bread, so I freeze mine anyway. I think the less freeze and thaw cycles the better. But, if you will eat it quickly, then the fact that they, like other places, put the frozen bread out on non- frozen shelves to thaw, is fine.

I agree with getting a frozen loaf from the back.  Unless you have lots of gluten-free eaters to gobble it up quickly.  I may need to make a trip to my local Aldi soon to check out what is back in stock.

I'm probably the odd one out, but I actually think that Udi's is marginally better than the Aldi's bread. It's not bad, though, especially for that price and so I'll likely buy it from time to time.

this stuff may not have Gluten in it but it's loaded in so much preservatives.  I would stay far away from this stuff as much as possible.  I did an experiment, I put a slice in a sandwich baggie.  Left it out on the counter.  Took 8 days before mold appeared.  Imagine what it is doing on your insides.

      My reaction to a gluten bolus exposure is similar to yours, with 2-3 hours of severe abdominal cramps and intractable emesis followed by several hours of diarrhea. I don't necessarily equate that one large exposure to gluten with significant intestinal lining damage, however. I think it's just a violent reaction to a what the body perceives to be a somewhat toxic substance that I am no longer tolerant of because I have quit exposing myself to it regularly. It's just the body purging itself of it rather than an expression of significant damage. Before diagnosis, when I was consuming gluten daily, I had little to no GI distress. I was, for the most part, a "silent celiac". The damage to my small bowel lining didn't happen all at once but was slow and insidious, accumulating over a period of years. The last time I got a big shot of gluten was about three years ago when I got my wife's wheat biscuits mixed up with my gluten-free ones. There was this acute reaction after about two hours of ingestion as I described above. I felt washed out for a few days and fully recovered within a week or so.  Now, I'm a 74-year-old male. So, I'm not worried about being pregnant. And I don't want to contradict your physicians advice. But I just don't think you have done significant damage to your small bowel lining by one episode of significant gluten ingestion. I just don't think it works that way.

      Wondering about some thoughts on how long to wait to try to get pregnant after a gluten exposure?  I have been diagnosed for 10 years and have followed the diet strictly. I have been cross contaminated before, but have never had a full on gluten exposure. I went to a restaurant recently, and the waiter messed up and gave me regular bread and told me it was gluten free. 2 hours later I was throwing up for the whole evening. I have never had that kind of reaction before as I have never had such a big exposure. My husband and I were planning to start trying to get pregnant this month. My dr did blood work to check for electrolytes and white blood cells, but did not do a full nutritional panel. Most of my GI symptoms have resolved in the past 2 weeks, but I am definitely still dealing with brain fog, fatigue and headaches. My dr has recommended I wait 3 months before I start to try to get pregnant.   I have read else where about how long it can take for the intestine to fully heal, and the impacts gluten exposure can have on pregnancy. I guess I am really wondering if anyone has had a similar experience? How long does it take to heal after 1 exposure like that, after following the diet so well for 10 years? Is 3 months an okay amount of time to wait? Is there anything I can do in the meantime to reduce my symptoms?

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!
