My daughter brought me a Knickinick bread tonight - gluten free, yeast free. I have never tasted a yeast free bread that was worth the price of the wrapper. This one is quite good - actually tastes like bread. It is not too heavy either as so many of the gluten-free products are. I ate it with just a little margerine (soy). I will try toast in the morning, Imagine - me having toast for breakfast! Claire

Kinnikinnick success story! i found their sandwich bread at this one store in town. i'd been hauling pizza crusts home from an hour and a half away because i couldn't find them anywhere else. so i asked them if they would start to carry the pizza crusts. well, ladies and gentlemen, no more than 3 months later, we have pizza crusts, 3 flavors of donuts, white bread, brown bread, sunflower flax bread, multigrain rice bread, hamburger buns (which make a fine chili dog! although a little on the sweet side), tapioca rice bagels, new york rice bagels, choc chip muffins, blueberry muffins, and cinnamon rolls.

dang it, now i'm hungry again! :P

as far as product reviews, all their bread stuff tends to be a tad sweet for me, but i'm a huge fan of the donuts and the cinnamon rolls. and you can't beat arriving home tired and hungry and popping a pizza in the oven.

I think Kinnikinnick is hands down the best at EVERYTHING...sigh...they just make me smile!

I agree. Kinnickinnick by far is way ahead of other makers of gluten-free breads, muffins, etc. Their english muffins in particular are so nice a fluffy I can't believe that they are gluten free! They rock!

p.s. Hurray, this is post 1000 for me!!

Hugs.

LOL! :lol:

I guess that's what I get for posting so late!!! (reminds me of our "You know your a Celiac when" list: remember the "You can say Kinnikinnick 10 times quickly without messing up"? (something like that!) :P

Wish I could go to sleep but my tummy just won't let me, it is fully active tonight, wearing out the carpet from the computer to the loo!

Hugs.

Not to get off the subject, but what's the origin of the word "loo." I know what room it refers to. Is Loo short for something else? Since it's British in origin it's not used much in states, if at all, and I was just wondering about how it got it's name.

P.S. My stuff on postcards went out to you this week.

Hi, my name is Nancy, and I'm an information junkie (and and insomniac). So yea... I looked the origin of the word Loo up for you. :lol: Looks like there are a few interesting theories. The most popular, it seems, is that it came down over the years from a French phrase - gardez l'eau - which means "watch out for the water"

I was in Italy last year (before I was diagnosed). The public toilets are actually holes in the ground that you have to "squat over". Maybe "loo" is the Brittish pronunciation of "low".

Their products are wonderful!! I wanted the whole foods near me to carry them so I emailed the conact for the Mpls store and she said she has been working on it. And she wanted to know what products I wanted in the store! So, if your store does not carry them ask and you should get them!!!

VydorScope Proficient

Wish I could try them.,.. but they not in my area yet :( Plus they probably not egg free....

WHich flavor of the bread would y'all recommend? There's a place close to me that sells them, but there are so many kinds!

And for that amount of money, I'd like to get the best tasting! :D

jenvan Collaborator
Um.. Excuse me, but you didn't spell that correctly. :lol::lol::lol: Just kidding! :)

...psst, Karen- you didn't spell it correctly either. :P

HA HA!! I intentionally practiced their name after several times of frustratingly trying to find their damn website!! Kinnikinnick !! :P

lol! that is how i learned to spell it too. it took me forever to find the page!

as for favorite Kinnikinnick bread, i think i'd go with the italian white bread. i can't remember the exact wording but there's italian in there somewhere. not really sure why, though, now that i think about it. :) yesterday i saw some more exotic ones but i haven't tried them yet.

Well so far I like their Pizza crusts, their white sandwich bread, chocolate donuts and their montanas chocolate chip cookie..

ALSO Mightymorg where do you find them in Austin?? I have only seen them at the Herberry...any other place you know of?

mightymorg Rookie

I've only seen them at The Herbery...I say I live in Austin because most people besides us don't know where Georgetown is.... :D

I noticed that I spelled it wrong! I guess everyone here would know what I meant. Spelling is one thing - pronunication is another. I haven't heard two people say it the same way. I imagine it is an Indian word,

We have one local store selling some of their products and our newest store 'The Natural Marketplace' is going to be adding it soon.

As I can't handle yeast, a lot of their products are not for me. Finding a yeast free bread that looks and tastes and has the texture of bread is indeed a real find. It doesn't have a lot of flavor but spreads and fillings can take care of that. It is the texture of bread that I have missed - for 15 years now - so this a treat. Claire

(i'm finally starting to be able to keep straight which one is the frozen food store, which one has all the flours, which one has the cheapest cereal, and which one carries kinnikinnick!)

It is called "Crispy Chicken Coating" or somthing like that. You can order from thier site if your store does not have it, Just need make the order bigenough to make up for shipping.

Hey guys

A little off topic, but When you guys ordered online from kinnickinnick, how long did it take for the products to be shipped to your house?Thanks

mookie03 Contributor

has anyone tried any of their breads that have fiber in them- like the brown sandwich bread or multigrain rice bread (or any others) i am looking for a bread or muffin that is edible and has some fiber in it, and most of the gluten-free breads i have seen have < 1 gram! also, if anyone knows any stores in nyc that sells their stuff, do share! (trying to avoid ordering online...) Thanks!

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      @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.
