Vincent -- we have Wild Oats here -- haven't gone there because I'm afraid of the prices! Are they very expensive? I know that Kroger's organic section is pretty high -- but that's where we're buying from right now. I'm also afraid that if I go into Wild Oats that I'll spend a fortune! We also have (what I think is) the Whole Foods Market -- something like that. Just wanting to know how expensive it is compared to regular stuff. Kind of on a REALLY tight budget. . . Lynne

Its a mix. Some of the stuff, like the Panda Puffs are cheaper then Kroger, other stuff is more pricey. Its the only place around here htat carries some of the more special stuff. Like my wife loves the amartha cereal and thats the only place to get it. Some times my son loves the gluten-free Chicken Nuggest they carry, and thats the only place to get them. Plus they have a nice selection of gluten-free junk food, which Kroger realy does not have.

Just gotta know your prices, and shop around.

Only real complaint I have is the isles are way to narrow theres now place to push the stroler that toddler hands cant reach out and grab stuff.

We do not have a Whole Foods. Thier web site says we will get one soon, but its been saying that for over a year.

Ha! Definitely time for new pants! :lol::lol::lol:

Maybe if the other products do well, they'll realize that they should get the K-Toos as well. I haven't had them (like oreos, right?), but I'm sure I'll get there sooner or later. Enjoy the donuts!

ahhh, enjoy the donuts! I've found that ONE donut usually satisfies me now! My kid can usually only eat 1/2 a donut, so I cut them in half for her, good thing too since they are so pricey! My current fave (just had this morning) is the cinnamon sugar coated donuts! YUM!

Yep! They are rumored to be extremly good, but cant find them here LOL. I sure hope their gluten-free stuff sells well, its a very extensive selection now! I saw a shelf lable for "gluten-free Family Pack Prestels" but they were out of them. Would have gotten some if they were there though. Wife is looking for gluten-free prestles hehe.

I saw those, but before going gluten-free I had a real weakness for the cholate doughnuts at Dunkin Doughnuts, so I got these and I grabbed some Cininoman RASIN begals too, but I think they were enjoy life brand. Forget right now. (Yea I know big shock on the raisins! LOL) Also picked up some tinkyada pasta... still need but a colander. LOL saw one at Kroger for 12.99!!! It was filthy too like it been on the shelf for years, at that price I would not dobut it! Was small too, prbly only fit a 1/4 pound or so of pasta.

I took 2 of the doughnuts out and put them in baggies on the counter to thaw, and tossed rest in fridge. Figure can have one after diner and one tommorow, and take out more as needed.

Hi Vincent,

I saw gluten-free pretezels at the Turnip Truck in Nashville (on Woodland) the last time I was there. They had only the small packages of the seseame covered ones. It's been a couple of months or more, but that might be where your wife can find some.

Actually ordering by the case is the way to go as they usually give you a 15% discount. And a case of the donuts is only 2 packages. So not too bad! Have you looked on the Kinnikinick site to see where they sell their products in your area?

Yes and the only list wild oats. I think they said there was 6 in a case. But they siad there would be no discout for the case, it would be the shilfprice times number of pieces.

They make Gluten-Free Chicken Nuggets??????? :D Okay, I'm going . . . I'm geting tired of Puffins, smoothies and junior mints for junk food!

Vincent, I didn't even read that you were from Nashville -- we get down that way every once in awhile -- Dave has some friends there that we visit. Next visit, I'll have to PM you so that my husband and I can meet up with your family and I can see that cutie Tymber in person! We're in Louisville, KY

I had to laugh about the narrow aisles -- I hated that when my kids were little -- I'd get to the checkout, and I'd have all this stuff -- expensive cereals, gummies, fruit roll-ups -- in my cart. I'd just look at them, and then give the stuff to the cashier with a sheepish look on my face and say "we really didn't want these -- I'm sorry." When Brandon was REALLY little, he used to sit and reach back into the cart -- I can't tell you how many times he poked holes through the meat packages if I put them on the top. It was really FUNNY in retrospect!!

At any rate, I feel a long trip to Wild Oats coming on . . . . :lol:

Talk to you guys soon . . . . Lynne :)

Lynne,

Yea, these:

Open Original Shared Link

Tymber likes them, but they are a bit spicier then I expected. Not hot, just a touch spicy. They make the normal Tyson chicken nuggguts seem bland! LOL

As for your Nashville trips... sounds good! :)

GO FOR THE CASE! They are sooooo good. You can always hide them in the cupboard and open them for special occasions. I ate way too many around Christmas and am waiting to order more until I get my weight back under control, but I will get more. They are extra yummy crushed up and mixed in with coconut sorbet.

Acording to Kinikinicks website, they are the only ppl in Nashville that carrie thier products. :( Not seen thier stuff elsewhere, so I am forced to guess that is right.

That sucks!! Do you have any co-ops near you or a whole foods where you could request they sell them? Whold foods will give you a discount on cases. I contacted the Mpls Whole foods and she said she was working on geting Kinnikinick there and that some other cities already had them. So it is worth a shot!

Yeah, I was going to suggest that you go to other stores in your area (or call them) and request that they consider carrying Kinnickinick products. I just asked my local Publix about it, and the asst. manager was going to look into seeing if he could order them. It's worth it to ask, the worst they can say is NO!

Over a year ago whole foods annoicned they were comming to Nashville, but theres no sign of them yet. Thier site still says comming soon.

I guess I could ask at my Kroger, but realy not had good luck with them ordering anything. They can only order it if its in thier computer, and I doubt this will be. The nearest publics ia quite a hike so would not bother there. Maybe if my Astronomy Business does not work out I can open a gluten-free store LOL

Well, I get most of what we need from Kroger (normal food store), so its not bad. If Wholefoods ever comes to town that could make things a bit nicer. :D

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      Hello all! My life in the last five years has been crazy. I got married in 2020 at the age of 27, pregnant with our first child almost two months later, gave birth in 2021. We had another baby in April of 2023 and our last baby this March of 2025. I had some issues after my second but nothing ever made me think, "I should see a doctor about this." After...

      On the AIP diet, all processed foods are eliminated. This includes gluten-free bread. You'll be eating meats and vegetables, mostly. Meats that are processed, like sausages, sandwich meats, bacons, chicken nuggets, etc., are eliminated as well. Veggies should be fresh, or frozen without other ingredients like sauces or seasonings.

      When I accidentally consume gluten it compromises the well-being of my heart and arteries. Last time I had a significant exposure, about six months ago, I had AFib for about ten days. It came on every day around dinner time. After the ten days or so it went away and hasn't come back. My cardiologist offered me a collection of pharmaceuticals at the time...

      New Celiac Mama in My 30s

      By tiffanygosci · Posted

      Hello all! My life in the last five years has been crazy. I got married in 2020 at the age of 27, pregnant with our first child almost two months later, gave birth in 2021. We had another baby in April of 2023 and our last baby this March of 2025. I had some issues after my second but nothing ever made me think, "I should see a doctor about this." After having my last baby this year, my body has finally started to find its new rhythm and balance...but things started to feel out of sorts. A lot of symptoms were convoluted with postpartum symptoms, and, to top it all off, my cycle came back about 4m postpartum. I was having reoccurring migraines, nausea, joint pain, numbness in my right arm, hand and fingers, tummy problems, hives. I finally went to my PCP in August just for a wellness check and I brought up my ailments. I'm so thankful for a doctor that listens and is thorough. He ended up running a food allergy panel, an environmental respiratory panel, and a celiac panel. I found out I was allergic to wheat, allergic to about every plant and dust mites, and I did have celiac. I had an endoscopy done on October 3 and my results confirmed celiac in the early stages! I am truly blessed to have an answer to my issues. When I eat gluten, my brain feels like it's on fire and like someone is squeezing it. I can't think straight and I zone out easily. My eyes can't focus. I get a super bad migraine and nausea. I get so tired and irritable and anxious. My body hurts sometimes and my gut gets bloated, gassy, constipated, and ends with bowel movements. All this time I thought I was just having mom brain or feeling the effects of postpartum, sleep deprivation, and the like (which I probably was having and the celiac disease just ramped it up!) I have yet to see a dietician but I've already been eating and shopping gluten-free. My husband and I have been working on turning our kitchen 100% gluten-free (we didn't think this would be so expensive but he assured me that my health is worth all the money in the world). There are still a few things to replace and clean. I'm already getting tired of reading labels. I even replaced some of my personal hygiene care for myself and the kids because they were either made with oats or not labeled gluten-free. I have already started feeling better but have made some mistakes along the way or have gotten contamination thrown into the mix. It's been hard! Today I joked that I got diagnosed at the worst time of the year with all the holidays coming up. I will just need to bring my own food to have and to share. It will be okay but different after years of eating "normally". Today I ordered in person at Chipotle and was trying not to feel self-conscious as the line got long because they were following food-allergy protocols. It's all worth it to be the healthiest version of myself for me and my family. I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little overwhelmed and a little overloaded!  I am thankful for this community and I look forward to learning more from you all. I need the help, that's for sure!

      Thank you for responding and for prayers.  So sorry for your struggles, I will keep you in mine.  You are so young to have so many struggles, mine are mild by comparison.  I didn't have Celiac Disease (celiac disease) until I had my gallbladder removed 13 years ago; at least nothing I was aware of.  Following surgery: multiple symptoms/oddities appeared including ridges on fingernails, eczema, hair falling out in patches, dry eyes, upset stomach constantly and other weird symptoms that I don't really remember.  Gastro did tests and endoscopy and verified celiac disease. Re heart: I was born with Mitral Valve Prolapse (MVP) and an irregular heartbeat, yet heart was extremely strong.  It was difficult to pick up the irregular heartbeat on the EKG per cardiologist.  I had Covid at 77, recovered in 10 days and 2 weeks later developed long Covid. What the doctors and nurses called the "kickoff to long Covid, was A-fib.  I didn't know what was going on with my heart and had ignored early symptoms as some kind of passing aftereffect stemming from Covid.  I was right about where it came from, but wrong on it being "passing".  I have A-fib as my permanent reminder of Covid and take Flecainide every morning and night and will for the rest of my life to stabilize my heartbeat.
