I like either Canyon Bakehouse or Udi'd for already made white bread. Both do have multigrain varities also but I grew up in the pasty white bread era. Canyon Bakehouse also makes a good cinnamon raisen bread that I like for breakfast.  I think most jellies and jams are gluten free but I use either Wegmans or Smuckers. Pamelas Baking mix makes pretty good biscuits, muffins and cookies but check and make sure there isn't any ingredients you need to avoid as it is almond flour with others and has a leavening agent. I like all these brands because they don't have soy. Although that may not be an issue for you. You may also want to check out Grainless Baker. They use tapioca flour and I think I have become addicted to their rolls. They make a french bread style bagutte (sp?) that is great for sub style sandwiches.

So did you like the breads first try or did you have to acquire a taste for them? It seems I've tried lots of gluten-free breads and none I have just been like wow that's good and worth $6 a loaf or that I can eat within 5 days if opening 🙄 i  will have to try the biscuits and the other you mentioned, thanks!

I use Fritz Gluten Free bread which is available here at Costco in 2 loaf packages. It's whole grain and tastes great.

Fratz  (west coast) has great bread. 
Canyon House bread and bagels are delicious too!  Guess it depends on tastes and textures you like.  
Chick-Fil-A  has an awesome hamburger bun too!

I think you mistyped. It’s Franz, not Fratz. It’s my favorite. Canyon House is good too but their loaf bread slices are diminuitive.

My problem with most gluten-free bread is texture. They tend to turn to glue. Could some company slice the bread thin, sort of like half thick as usual? I would love that.

I have been gluten-free for 15 years, and I still don't like a lot of the stuff they feed us. You just have to find what you can live with.

The problem with that is that gluten-free bread doesn't hold together well enough to permit thin slicing. But try Canyon House Bakery's gluten-free bread products. They are smaller and thinner than most.

Agree, Cannon House is good.  Bagels are great too!  If you live on West coast, you have some other brands that are great also.

Refrigerate both and they will last longer.  I freeze bagels and pull out the night before.

I am seeing that as I go along … some things like crackers don’t seem to ever be in my future again

Did you mean "Canyon House?" You typed "Cannon House." Or, maybe there is a Cannon House?

Canyon House Heritage Style Honey White is my favorite for a sandwich. Keep it in the freezer and defrost only the slices you need. About 15 minutes to defrost a slice on the counter or nuke it for 30 seconds if your Lithium is low and you are impatient.  Toasted the texture reminds me of rye bread.

Unfortunately, Lance is not making the gluten free originals right now due to an employee shortage.  Or at least that is what they told me.🥲 Wish Ritz would make them too!

I enjoy Glutino's crackers. They remind me of matza.

The crackers I really like, as opposed to tolerate, are the Schaar ones. The Table Crackers are like real plain crackers and the Entertainment Crackers are like slightly smaller Ritz crackers. I order them. We don't have much available here, either.

Yes I have tried those. I don’t care for the entertainment crackers other than to bake with … they taste weird to me idk why. The table crackers I use for tuna and soup but they crumble so not good for much else lol. Ordering gets expensive and it’s almost always in bulk 🤦🏼‍♀️

      Welcome to the forum, @McKinleyWY, For a genetic test, you don't have to eat gluten, but this will only show if you have the genes necessary for the development of Celiac disease.  It will not show if you have active Celiac disease.   Eating gluten stimulates the production of antibodies against gluten which mistakenly attack our own bodies.  The antibodies are produced in the small intestines.  Three grams of gluten are enough to make you feel sick and ramp up anti-gluten antibody production and inflammation for two years afterwards.  However, TEN grams of gluten or more per day for two weeks is required to stimulate anti-gluten antibodies' production enough so that the anti-gluten antibodies move out of the intestines and into the bloodstream where they can be measured in blood tests.  This level of anti-gluten antibodies also causes measurable damage to the lining of the intestines as seen on biopsy samples taken during an endoscopy (the "gold standard" of Celiac diagnosis).   Since you have been experimenting with whole wheat bread in the past year or so, possibly getting cross contaminated in a mixed household, and your immune system is still so sensitized to gluten consumption, you may want to go ahead with the gluten challenge.   It can take two years absolutely gluten free for the immune system to quit reacting to gluten exposure.   Avoiding gluten most if the time, but then experimenting with whole wheat bread is a great way to keep your body in a state of inflammation and illness.  A diagnosis would help you stop playing Russian roulette with your and your children's health.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @McKinleyWY! There currently is no testing for celiac disease that does not require you to have been consuming generous amounts of gluten (at least 10g daily, about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for at least two weeks and, to be certain of accurate testing, longer than that. This applies to both phases of testing, the blood antibody tests and the endoscopy with biopsy.  There is the option of genetic testing to see if you have one or both of the two genes known to provide the potential to develop celiac disease. It is not really a diagnostic measure, however, as 30-40% of the general population has one or both of these genes whereas only about 1% of the general population actually develops celiac disease. But genetic testing is valuable as a rule out measure. If you don't have either of the genes, it is highly unlikely that you can have celiac disease. Having said all that, even if you don't have celiac disease you can have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which shares many of the same symptoms as celiac disease but does not involve and autoimmune reaction that damages the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. Both conditions call for the complete elimination of gluten from the diet. I hope this brings some clarity to your questions.

      Hello all, I was diagnosed at the age of 2 as being allergic to yeast.  All my life I have avoided bread and most products containing enriched flour as they  contain yeast (when making the man made vitamins to add back in to the flour).  Within the last year or so, we discovered that even whole wheat products bother me but strangely enough I can eat gluten free bread with yeast and have no reactions.  Obviously, we have come to believe the issue is gluten not yeast.  Times continues to reinforce this as we are transitioning to a gluten free home and family.  I become quite ill when I consume even the smallest amount of gluten. How will my not having consumed breads/yeast/gluten for the better part of decades impact a biopsy or blood work?  I would love to know if it is a gluten intolerance or a genetic issue for family members but unsure of the results given my history of limited gluten intake.   I appreciate the input from those who have gone before me in experience and knowledge. Thank you all!

      I know what you mean. When I get glutened I have severe gut cramps and throw up for 2-3 hr. and then have diarrhea for another several hours. Avoid eating out if at all possible. It is the number one source of gluten contamination for us celiacs. When you are forced to eat out at a new restaurant that you are not sure is safe, try to order things that you can be sure will not get cross contaminated like a boiled egg, baked potatos, steamed vegies, fresh fruit. Yes, I know that doesn't sound as appetizing as pizza or a burger and fries but your health is at stake. I also realize that as a 14 year old you don't have a lot of control over where you eat out because you are tagging along with others or adults are paying for it. Do you have support from your parents concerning your need to eat gluten free? Do you believe they have a good understanding of the many places gluten can show up in the food supply?

      Okay went online to check green mountain k cups .It was said that the regular coffees are fine but they couldn’t guarantee cross contamination.with the flavors. im trying to figure out since I eliminated the suyrup so far so good. I’m hoping. thanks it feels good to listen to other people there views.
