Breads By Anna Question

I was off yeast as well as gluten and dairy for several months, and I've been happily eating Anna's yeast-free bread mix. But now it seems that my tolerance for yeast is improving, so I'm wondering if the Anna's mix with yeast would be significantly better than the yeast-free one. Has anyone tried both?

I actually really like to convenience of just mixing it up and sticking it in the oven without waiting for it to rise, so unless the one with yeast is significantly better, I'm inclined to stick with the yeast-free one.

I am certain I'm Anna's greatest fan, but I've never tried the yeast free bread... only the yeast bread. Sorry I can't help.

I'm sorry, you're wrong I'm Anna's greatest fan ( :P ) I've not tried the yeast free one either.

I eat Anna's breads, but haven't tried the yeast free bread. Can you give us an idea of what it is like. Texture wise and weight wise. Maybe that will help us to know if there is a difference. The regular is pretty light, but not the crust for me and I make mine in a bread maker.

I like her bread, but use another one too. I alternate them, Gluten Free pantry mix.

Well, I've modified the instructions slightly (I cook it slightly longer on a lower temperature, and I add some lecithin in addition to the oil to make it moister), but the texture is really very nice - soft and light and makes a very nice sandwich. But it's definitely best fresh; after 4 or 5 days it gets kind of dry and crumbly.

Anna sure has alot of fans out here because I thought I was her best PR person!!! I love her and her breads. I use the reg mix and have tasted the yf one. I like them both but I use the reg mix all the time... I do mine in a bread machine always As I don't have time to make from scratch... Lazy is what I should honestly say......Either way you can't go wrong with Anna's mixes.

      Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      There is a 10 year old post in this forum on Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream. The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one. Edy's And Dreyer's Grand Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 1.5 Quart is labeled "Gluten Free". This is a different answer than years gone by. I don't know the answer for any other flavor at this moment. On 1 May, 2026, Edy's website says: "As a general rule, the gluten in Edy's and Dreyer's® frozen dessert products is present only in the added bakery products, such as cookies, cake or brownies. We always label the eight major food allergens on our package by their common name. We recommend to always check the label for the most current information before purchasing and/or consuming a product. The exception to this rule is our Slow Churned French Silk frozen dairy dessert, which contains gluten in the natural flavors." https://www.icecream.com/us/en/brands/edys-and-dreyers/faq It seems that Edy's and Dreyer's are more celiac-friendly than they were 10 years ago. Once I found enough information to make today's buying decision, I stopped researching.

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/

      Terrible Neurological Symptoms

      By Aretaeus Cappadocia · Posted

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes and goes randomly as before again.
