UDi bread is so delicious, but the new formula bother me really bad, I think it the tapioca.

That's so interesting.  I saw it at the store, but didn't get it.  I've had issues with modified tapioca starch in the past.   I've eaten the regular white sandwich bread with no issues.  It has Tapioca Starch, but not modified.  I'm not sure what the difference is or why it would bother me.  I will be interested to see if anyone else has an issue.

I have issues with it also. In my case it is the addition of the sorghum. I should have read the label. My bad. Unfortunately all the breads I looked at as an alternative have either that or soy flour. Not sure what I am going to do for my daily PB&Js now.

That's a bummer.  I have 1 loaf of the old version left.  I'll have to see if Target has any in their freezer.  I use it daily for my toast with sunbutter.

I am pretty sure Udi's has discontinued the old one. It was called Whole Grain, the new is called Multigrain. I can't eat any gluten-free flours b/c of oat cc but my hubs just got the new Udi's Multigrain on Saturday. So far, so good with him.

For myself, I make these:

I use full fat yogurt otherwise they are pretty dry. I make them in muffin top pans.

I was using the white sandwich bread.  I will be checking to see if it's still available.

They still have the white on their website. It's the whole grain that is no longer on the website.

I can't find it.  Only the new one called Delicious White Bread.  It's the one with modified tapioca starch.

squirmingitch Veteran

Ohhhhhhh, so sorry. I didn't look at the ingredients on that one. So they have changed the white bread as well huh? Bummer!

I know the new Multigrain is harder to get the slices separated without breaking them. I think part of the problem is the slices are not as thick.

Sidenote: if anyone's looking to avoid oat CC, Glutenull does not use oats in any of their products (breads, cookies, granolas/trail mix). I am sensitive to oat CC, and this is the only company whose products seem not to bother me. I really like their breads, but they are quite dense which may be off-putting to some (gluten-eating-me liked dense breads too).

It's a smaller company, and mostly only available in Canadian stores (unless you order online?). They don't use preservatives in their stuff, so you have to eat it fast (or freeze it)!

I wonder if Udi's knows how many customers they are losing. I have been a loyal Udi's consumer for years and now have to search for a replacement.  I wonder if a bigger company has bought them out? That happened with a favorite lotion and soap I loved.  There is an old saying 'if it ain't broke don't fix it' I wish companies would think of that with our prodcts and not 'gee I wonder how we can make this cheaper'.  Rant over.....

Udis was was bought  by Smart Balance over five Years ago.

gluten-free sorghum is not a cheap ingredient.  Not sure why they changed it, but they had  a lot of problems with the white bread having big air pockets.  Might  have just wanted to make a " healthier" bread  with more  whole grains?

Thanks for that info. I checked & there's no way for me to get it down here in FL, USA

Bad news for me.  I checked both of the stores that normally have the original Udi's in the freezer and nothing.  Just the new bread. :(

Out of curiosity I did the same at 2 whole foods and a natural grocers down here, only the new one....side note I found the only store bought bread I can stomach in stock. They actually carry Julian Bakery Paleo Bread now...starch free, gum free....I was tempted to get one of the almond ones again since I can make the coconut one in my own bakery.

That's too bad... I try not to rely on pre-made stuff as it's expensive, but as I am sure you're well aware it is super inconvenient to have to make all your stuff from scratch, especially when traveling/without a kitchen. Yayyyy rice grits<_<.

Although I have some doubts about the absolute safety of avenin based on my readings the current scientific literature, it's pretty indisputable that the gluten-free food industry has let down celiacs who have obvious reactions/immediate to it. IMHO allowing oats was a mistake, and the previous situation (allowing oats to be labelled as "wheat free") was better for everyone. Yes, this limits processed foods a bit, but celiacs who tolerate oats could still buy wheat free oats for use in oatmeal, baked goods, granola etc. I don't exactly think this is a hardship, considering that pre-celiac diagnosis I only ever bought plain bags of oats, despite being on a completely unrestricted diet ;).

Sorry for tangent! Resume discussion of Udi's lol.

      @xxnonamexx, There's labeling on those Trubar gluten free high fiber protein bars that say: "Manufactured in a facility that also processes peanuts, milk, soy, fish, WHEAT, sesame, and other tree nuts." You may want to avoid products made in shared facilities.   If you are trying to add more fiber to your diet to ease constipation, considering eating more leafy green vegetables and cruciferous vegetables.  Not only are these high in fiber, they also are good sources of magnesium.  Many newly diagnosed are low in magnesium and B vitamins and suffer with constipation.  Thiamine Vitamin B1 and magnesium work together.  Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine has been shown to improve intestinal health.  Thiamine and magnesium are important to gastrointestinal health and function.

      Welcome to celiac.com @sha1091a! Your experience is a very common one. Celiac disease is one the most underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed medical conditions out there. The reasons are numerous. One key one is that its symptoms mimic so many other diseases. Another is ignorance on the part of the medical community with regard to the range of symptoms that celiac disease can produce. Clinicians often are only looking for classic GI symptoms and are unaware of the many other subsystems in the body that can be damaged before classic GI symptoms manifest, if ever they do. Many celiacs are of the "silent" variety and have few if any GI symptoms while all along, damage is being done to their bodies. In my case, the original symptoms were elevated liver enzymes which I endured for 13 years before I was diagnosed with celiac disease. By the grace of God my liver was not destroyed. It is common for the onset of the disease to happen 10 years before you ever get a diagnosis. Thankfully, that is slowly changing as there has developed more awareness on the part of both the medical community and the public in the past 20 years or so. Blessings!

      @EndlessSummer, You said you had an allergy to trees.  People with Birch Allergy can react to green beans (in the legume family) and other vegetables, as well as some fruits.  Look into Oral Allergy Syndrome which can occur at a higher rate in Celiac Disease.   Switching to a low histamine diet for a while can give your body time to rid itself of the extra histamine the body makes with Celiac disease and histamine consumed in the diet.   Vitamin C and the eight B vitamins are needed to help the body clear histamine.   Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?

      I found out the age of 68 that I am a celiac. When I was 16, I had my gallbladder removed when I was 24 I was put on a medication because I was told I had fibromyalgia.   going to Doctor’s over many years, not one of them thought to check me out for celiac disease. I am aware that it only started being tested by bloodwork I believe in the late 90s, but still I’m kind of confused why my gallbladder my joint pain flatulent that I complained of constantly was totally ignored. Is it not something that is taught to our medical system? It wasn’t a Doctor Who asked for the test to be done. I asked for it because of something I had read and my test came back positive. My number was quite high.Are there other people out here that had this kind of problems and they were ignored?

      Welcome to celiac.com, @EndlessSummer! Do you react to all vegetables or just specific kinds or families of them? What you describe with green beans sounds like it has an anaphylaxis component. Like you, walnuts are a problem for me. They will often give me a scratchy throat so I try to avoid them. Does it matter if the vegies are raw or will-cooked in how you react to them?
