Did I Get A Bad Loaf?

They were out of Udi's at the store so I had to get something else. Canyon Bakehouse has always gotten good reviews so I figured I would try it. The taste was okay but it seemed really doughy almost like it wasn't quite done baking. Has anyone else noticed this or did I just get an loaf that got by the bakers?

I only get the Seven Grain one and it is never doughy. It is like a whole wheat and, if anything, a bit dry. I bet if you message them on Fb or email they will want to know.

I too buy 7 grain  , never  a problem...always  moist &  good flavor....

I get the seven-grain too. It's great right out of the package but I noticed if I make a grilled cheese with it it is sort of doughy or rubbery or whatever you want to call it.

I find this true of canyon bakehouse too. Almost slimy or rubbery. I think it's the chia seeds. I'm not a fan.

Thanks everyone. I appretiate your input.  I think next time my city's Wegmans is out it will be worth the trip to stop at the big, huge one where I work.

I just purchased the Canyon Bakehouse cinnamon raisin bread and found it to be the same way.  It wasn't the worst texture bread I have ever had but I would put it in the average category.  It had a great flavor though.  Maybe different types of bread from the same company are better like the 7 grain.  I will give that a try.  Otherwise I will stick with Udi's

I do know that Canyon Bakehouse used to have corn in it and it doesn't anymore. That was good for me back when I couldn't tolerate corn, but it might be that whatever they are using now is what is making the texture "off". I still like it unheated, but heated it gets rubbery.

 

I'm back to eating Udi's. They have that giant loaf at my local store and it makes the very best grilled cheese sandwiches.

I thought they might have a giant loaf.  I was at my local restaurant ordering breakfast and figuring out what I can eat when the waitress said they had Udi's bread.  I ordered it and it was so much bigger than the loaf I had at home.  I guess I will have to put in a special request for the Udi's giant loaf at my local Albertson's and see if they can get it. Thanks for the info!

Udi's  sells  to restaurants the bigger loaf.  Starting  last  fall we  find  the  larger  loaf at Costco....

The trouble with the giant loaf is that you need to use more "stuff" to make a sandwich and then you wind up consuming a lot more calories. And it's worth it! :lol:

      Hi all I’ve been celiac for 4 years now, I’ve done pretty well to avoid it thus far. Last night I took the wrong pizza out of the freezer and ate the whole lot!! The non gluten and gluten pizza boxes are both very similar.   2 hours later I was throwing up violently on my hands and knees over the loo.  .horrendous stomach pains,  My hair was wet from sweat every part of my body was wet. What an awful experience, just had a bad headache today  fortunately.    Is their any products/pills anyone takes if they have realised they have just been glutened to make the symptoms a little less worse.  thanks

      Yes, do take your B Complex with Benfotiamine or Thiamax.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins in the B Complex to make energy and enzymes, so best to take them together earlier in your day.  Taking them too close to bedtime can keep you too energetic to go to sleep.   The Life Extension Benfotiamine with Thiamine is Benfotiamine and Thiamine Hydrochloride, another form of thiamine the body likes.  The Thiamine HCl just helps the Benfotiamine work better.   Read the label for how many milligrams are in them.  The Mega Benfotiamine is 250 mgs.  Another Benfothiamine has 100 mgs.  You might want to start with the 100 mg.    I like to take Thiamax in the morning with a B Complex at breakfast.  I take the Benfotiamine with another meal.  You can take your multivitamin with Benfotiamine at lunch.   Add a magnesium supplement, too.  Thiamine needs magnesium to make some important enzymes.  Life Extension makes Neuro-Mag, Magnesium Threonate, which is really beneficial.  (Don't take Magnesium Oxide.  It's not absorbed well, instead it pulls water into the digestive tract and is used to relieve constipation.)  I'm not a big fan of multivitamins because they don't always dissolve well in our intestines, and give people a false sense of security.  (There's videos on how to test how well your multivitamin dissolves.).  Multivitamins don't prevent deficiencies and aren't strong enough to correct deficiencies.   I'm happy you are trying Thiamax and Benfotiamine!  Keep us posted on your progress!  I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.

      I looked further into Thiamax Vitamin B1 by objective nutrients and read all the great reviews. I think I will give this a try. I noticed only possible side affect is possibly the first week so body adjusts. Life Extensions carries Benfotiamine with Thiamine and the mega one you mentioned. Not sure if both in one is better or seperate. some reviews state a laxative affect as side affect. SHould I take with my super B complex or just these 2 and multivitamin? I will do further research but I appreciate the wonderful explanation you provided on Thiamine.

      Thanks I am mostly looking for everyday staples and easy meal ideas nothing too specialty if possible.

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?
