Ener-g Foods

I have a package of Ener-G pizza crusts (they come packed in 3s). I'm only one person, so 3 pizza crusts would last me a long time. Has anyone ever tried freezing them after they open the package? Or does anyone know how long they'll keep once the package is opened?

Same goes for the bread/English muffins, etc. Thanks guys!

As far as the bread is concerned (and the Muffins), they will last a little while longer than the usual gluten-free bread (around a week or more) once opened...

FYI,

Make sure you toast the Energ Bread -- it might be the kost disgusting piece of food on the planet when it is not toasted

You have been warned!

I haven't tried them, but I imagine freezing them would be ok... If you like you could go ahead and put your sauce and cheese on them before freezing them, and then when you pull it out of the freezer just put your toppings on!

Whoops,

I didn't answer the question correctly -- my bad!

They should keep while frozen after they have been opened (as long as they are in a freezer bag or air tight)

The pretzels are great...but watch the fat content in the foods...it is usually really high so I only eat them when I really want a snack that tastes like the ones I used to know!!!! I usually toast the bread and then slice it down the middle making two whole slices of bread. It doesn't taste too bad that way....

I put my EnerG bread in the freezer once I have openned it because it don't eat it very quickly.

I have to recommend the Ener-g Tapioca light bread. It tastes like real bread. It isn't graining like the others. The regular tapioca bread has to be toasted or it isn't really edible. Try the 'light".

Anyone try their Rice English Muffins, Choc. Iced Donuts or the Melba Toast?

Overall, Ener-g not too tastey?

I just tried the hot dogs buns and it was pretty good (although I haven't had a "real" bun in six months!). I did try their bread (plain rice I think) and thought it was styrofoam w/ a label - I did not care for it and have not tried it again.

The only way I've found to make the rice bread taste halfway decent is to spread it with garlic butter and cook it on the pancake griddle - flip it over to lightly toast the back side. It isn't too bad this way. It's also edible made into grilled cheese if you use enough butter and cook it until it's browned. Of course, I haven't had any "real" bread for about 10 years, so I might not be the best judge of taste ;) .

      There is much helpful 'truth' posted on this forum. Truths about Celiac Disease are based on scientific research and people's experience. Celiac disease is inherited. There are 2 main Celiac 'genes' but they are variations of one gene called HLa - DQ What is inherited when a person inherits one or both of the DQ2 or the DQ8 is a predisposition to develop celiac disease after exposure to a environmental trigger. These 2 versions of the DQ gene are useful in diagnosing  celiac disease but there are about 25 other genes that are known to influence celiac disease so this food intolerance is a multigenic autoimmune disease. So with so many genes involved and each person inheriting a different array of these other genes one person's symptoms may be different than another's symptoms.  so many of these other genes.  I don't think that much research on these other genes as yet. So first I wrote something that seem to tie together celiac disease and migraines.  Then you posted that you had migraines and since you went gluten free they only come back when you are glutened. Then Scott showed an article that reported no connection between migraines and celiac disease, Then Trents wrote that it was possible that celiacs had more migraines  and some believed there was a causal effect. You are each telling the truth as you know it or experienced it.

      Another annoying thing about trying to figure this Celiac life out is reading all of the labels and considering every choice. I shop at Aldi every week and have been for years. I was just officially diagnosed Celiac a couple weeks ago this October after my endoscopy. I've been encouraged by my local Aldi in that they have a lot of gluten free products and clearly labeled foods. I usually buy Milagro corn tortillas because they are cheap and are certified. However, I bought a package of Aldi's Pueblo Lindo Yellow Corn Tortillas without looking too closely (I was assuming they were fine... assuming never gets us anywhere good lol) it doesn't list any wheat products and doesn't say it was processed in a facility with wheat. It has a label that it's lactose free (hello, what?? When has dairy ever been in a tortilla?) Just, ugh. If they can add that label then why can't they just say something is gluten free or not? I did eat some of the tortillas and didn't notice any symptoms but I'm just not sure if it's safe. So I'll probably have to let my family eat them and stick with Milagro. There is way too much uncertainty with this but I guess you just have to stick with the clearly labeled products? I am still learning!

      Thank you all for sharing your experiences! And I am very thankful for that Thanksgiving article, Scott! I will look into it more as I plan my little dinner to bring with on the Holiday I'm also glad a lot of research has been done for Celiac. There's still a lot to learn and discover. And everyone has different symptoms. For me, I get a bad headache right away after eating gluten. Reoccurring migraines and visual disturbances were actually what got my PCP to order a Celiac Panel. I'm glad he did! I feel like when the inflammation hits my body it targets my head, gut, and lower back. I'm still figuring things out but that's what I've noticed after eating gluten! I have been eating gluten-free for almost two months now and haven't had such severe symptoms. I ate a couple accidents along the way but I'm doing a lot better

      @Mari, did you read that second article that Scott linked? It is the most recently date one. "Researchers comparing rates of headaches, including migraines, among celiac patients and a healthy control group showed that celiac subjects experienced higher rates of headaches than control subjects, with the greatest rates of migraines found in celiac women.  Additionally, celiacs had higher rates of migraine than control subjects, especially in women. In fact, four out of five women with celiac disease suffered from migraines, and without aura nearly three-quarters of the time."

      As far as I know and I have made severalonline searches, celiac disease disease has not been recognized as a cause of migraines or any eye problems. What I wrote must have been confusing.
