Favorite Hamburger Buns?


Newly Diagnosed

Recommended Posts

Newly Diagnosed Apprentice

What brand of hamburger buns does everyone like?  I have not yet found one that I like after a few bites.  Maybe it takes time to get used to the different texture/flavor of the gluten-free bun?  I would love to hear if people have found brands that they really enjoy so I can try them!

I haven't found one worth eating. I would like to know the answer. I just eat my burgers bunless. But I haven't found any loaf bread that I like either.

Same for me. Actually I do really likes trader joes bread. The buns, not so much. I prefer my hamburger in a lettuce wrap too

I've only tried a couple buns and wasn't real happy with them. Not awful but both kinds fell apart. Then I found the 'Against the Grain' baguettes. Those work very well for me. They have a nice crust that holds together and reminds me of a good Italian bread. Make a real good cheeseburger sub.

Hi there...this is a tough thing to find!  My favorite right now is from Outside the Breadbox, they're local for me, but I think can be ordered.  I found Canyon Bakehouse to be pretty good.  I'm getting ready to try Three Bakers too.  I do lettuce wraps also because I do enjoy them.

I use Udi's Classic hamburger buns. If I'm at home I butter and cook them on a griddle of flat skillet. Out, I just eat them as is, but I do smash them down so they are not so thick. When traveling I carry them so we can stop at barbeque joints. Have never had a problem. I do check to see that the barbeque sauce is safe.

Kinninnikki makes the Best Breads, Buns, and Dinner Rolls ever!  Also Vanilla wafers all Gluten free.  Udi's Bagettes are the best!  Katz makes some great items too!  Love their pies, only eat them once in a great while freeze good. Their Blueberry Bread is a wonderful treat. 

Like Kinninnikki (hope I spelled this correctly). Has good products!  The Donuts are a great treat, a little better then Katz.  Fresher.  

Like Udi's Blueberry Muffins!  Love Anna Bread Mixes, yummy. Banana Bread amazing.  

Quinoa is a NoNo for me.

Just had a bad experienes eating it!  Awful.  

I love Eating good foods, vegatables, and fruits are wonderful for us all. Not a big meat eater. Hardier to digest especially Beef.   We buy only Grass Fed Beef Organic from a Local farmer.  

Hope this helps!  

Sunny

      All of a sudden I can't get any gluten-free nuts. There are only 2 nuts available that I can find on the market that are gluten-free. One is Mauna loa brand macadamia nuts, the other is Wonderful pistachios. Other than that all types of nuts that are plain nuts, roasted or raw are no longer gluten-free and are processed and plants that also process wheat.  Has anyone found a source for Pecans, almonds peanuts, walnuts, Pine nuts, etc that is gluten-free?

      @Xravith, How are you doing?   Two cookies are not enough.  For testing, you need to be eating a minimum of ten grams of gluten for two weeks minimum before testing for Celiac antibodies.  Ten grams of gluten is roughly five or six slices of gluten containing bread per day for two weeks minimum. Breads that contain lots of gluten typically have large bubbles formed by gases escaping during baking.  Gluten helps form those bubbles of trapped gases, like a balloon.  Artisan breads, and thick, chewy pizza crust are good examples.  Look at the size of the bubbles in cakes and cookies.  Small bubbles, so not lots of gluten in them.  You'd have to eat tons of cookies to get ten grams.   Antibodies are made in the small intestine. If you eat at least TEN grams of gluten for at least two weeks, then there will be sufficient antibodies to move into the bloodstream, which can be measured in antibody tests.   If you eat less than ten grams of gluten daily, you will get celiac symptoms, but not enough antibodies will get into the bloodstream to be measured, resulting in false negatives.  Anemia, diabetes, and thiamine deficiency can also affect testing, resulting in false negatives. Since you are having such difficulty consuming sufficient quantities of gluten, you should consider getting a genetic test done.  You do not have to eat gluten to have a genetic test done.  Celiac is inherited.  It's in your genes.  Genes don't change whether you eat gluten or not.  A genetic test looks for the most common known Celiac genes.  If you do not have the genes, your doctor can look for other health conditions that can be causing symptoms.  If you do have Celiac genes, you can assume that those genes are actively causing symptoms.  An endoscopy to check for the amount of intestinal damage caused by Celiac Disease is usually done.   You should also be checked for nutritional deficiencies.  Ask for an Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test, which checks for Thiamine deficiency.  Thiamine, Vitamin B 1, is one of the eight essential B vitamins.  Thiamine can become low quickly because our bodies use so much of it everyday.  If we're not replenishing Thiamine daily from our diet or because of malabsorption, we can become seriously ill.  Same with the other seven B vitamins.   Doctors are not familiar with nutritional deficiency symptoms as can occur in Celiac disease.  Please get checked for nutritional deficiencies.  Ask for the Erythrocyte Transketolace Activity test soon. Please let us know how you are doing.

      @klmgarland, My dermatitis herpetiformis didn't clear up until I became meticulous about cross contamination. I cut out gluten-free oats and all gluten-free foods, dairy and gluten-free rice. Additionally, getting the right amount of protein for my body weight helped significantly in my body's healing process ... along with supplementing with enough of all the vitamins and minerals ... especially Zinc and Magnesium. I went from 70kg to 82kg in a year. Protein with each meal 3 times daily, especially eggs at breakfast made the difference. I'm not sure whether iodine was a problem for me, but I can tolerate iodine no problem now. I'm off Dapsone and feel great. Not a sign of an itch. So there is hope. I'm not advocating for the use of Dapsone, but it can bring a huge amount of relief despite it's effect on red blood cells. The itch is so distracting and debilitating. I tried many times to get off it, it wasn't until I implemented the changes above and was consistent that I got off it. Dermatitis Herpetiformis is horrible, I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

      Thank you so very much Scott.  Just having someone understand my situation is so very helpful.  If I have one more family member ask me how my little itchy skin thing is going and can't you just take a pill and it will go away and just a little bit of gluten can't hurt you!!!! I think I will scream!!

      It is difficult to do the detective work of tracking down hidden sources of cross-contamination. The scenarios you described—the kiss, the dish towel, the toaster, the grandbaby's fingers—are all classic ways those with dermatitis herpetiformis might get glutened, and it's a brutal learning curve that the medical world rarely prepares you for. It is difficult to have to deal with such hyper-vigilance. The fact that you have made your entire home environment, from makeup to cleaners, gluten-free is a big achievement, but it's clear the external world and shared spaces remain a minefield. Considering Dapsone is a logical and often necessary step for many with DH to break the cycle of itching and allow the skin to heal while you continue your detective work; it is a powerful tool to give you back your quality of life and sleep. You are not failing; you are fighting an incredibly steep battle. For a more specific direction, connecting with a dedicated celiac support group (online or locally) can be invaluable, as members exchange the most current, real-world tips for avoiding cross-contamination that you simply won't find in a pamphlet. You have already done the hardest part by getting a correct diagnosis. Now, the community can help you navigate the rest. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:
