Any commercially made bread that doesn't contain soy, agave sweetner and/or seed oils?

[pabolden]

Hello Everyone,

This is a bit of a mission impossible, but is anyone aware of a commercially made bread that doesn't contain soy, or seed oils like corn, cottonseed, canola, sunflower, or safflower oil, etc.  Also, HFCS and agave nectar would be a big negative.   I am not much of a cook but may have to learn to bake my own...I'm okay with that if necessary.

Thanks,

Paul

Hi pabolden

Welcome to the forum!

That certainly sounds like a challenge!  As you say, it might be time to start home baking - if that is the case, it would probably be worth investing in a break making machine, which I gather are very good.

Before anyone answers, can you tell us where in the world you live as what is on offer will vary.   I'm a UK coeliac so if you are posting from the States or Oz, for example, others will need to help.

Check out Grind Stone bakery in California. I haven't gone through their Web site chapter and verse as pertains your questions, but it may be worth looking through it, and failing that, give them a call. Good luck!

I will admit that I had no idea there was an island in Ohio...with its own winery!

Scott, there are about 40 islands across 10,000 square miles of sea.  About a third of the islands are inhabited.  While not the Napa Valley, wine production has been going on here for a couple of centuries.  The residents of Isle St. George (about two nautical miles north of Put In Bay and about twenty or so nautical miles south of the Canadian coast) are exclusively involved in the cultivation of grapes and wine production.  The archipelago where I currently live is a chain of 22 of those 40 islands...FYI.

Sadly, I'm hearing that Grinstone Bakery (in Calif) is looking for a new owner.

Oh no...their web site is down! I love Grindstone. Their bread was already on the high end in terms of cost per loaf for gluten-free products, and this was before the huge recent inflation. I suspect that their cost of goods soared, and pushed their retail costs per loaf too high...but who knows. Sad to see another great gluten-free company go out of business.
