The ones I have tasted are terrible. Do you know of any brands that actually taste good?

I love the mix from The Gluten-free Pantry for their favorite sandwich bread. It is easy to make and the closest to real bread that I have had.

Their White and Brown Breads are excellent IF YOU TOAST them !!!!!!

Pretty much the best ones on the market...

REMEMBER TO TOAST THEM

Chebe is the only bread I make a point to eat.

Mango has a good point.

The difference is you have to "make" chebe

Kinnkinnick comes in a loaf.

Chebe is the bomb though....

Just tried kinnikinnick (however you spell it) white sandwich bread. YUM! Couldn't wait to try it, and was at my mom's without gluten-free toaster.......broiled it with cheese in oven - terrific. Went home and had another piece with PB.

I like Chebe, too, but only for stromboli -- when it's plain with no "stuffings" I can't take the aftertaste.

I dislike most gluten-free breads. Call me a bread snob, but they don't meet my expectations. The kinnikinnik brown bread is decent for a sandwhich bread, though.

Hi. We order from Kinnikinnick all the time. Pretty sure they're a Canadian company. I've seen some of their products (like cake mixes) in Wild Oats, but not their breads. We order ours online.

Soft Corn tortillas (be sure to read the label...preaching to the choir here) are a good quick substitute for bread.

I have to second the Anna's vote. I buy their mixes and make them in my bread machine. It's the best gluten-free bread around.

My current favorite gluten free bread is the navy bean plain bread from Celiac Specialties @ www.CeliacSpecialties.com .

I like "Food For Life" brand Raisin pecan, but it is a sweet bread; also very dense, can give you heartburn if you're not careful. I am glad to hear the recommendations for regular bread - I miss having some toast to soak up my poached eggs!

I'm from the Midwest originally and Kinnikinnick seems to remind me of the name of a town there. Lots of native american named places around there. Lots of gluten-free companies are from Wisconsin, since there are lots of Vikings and Scandinavians there. Northern Europeans are the major celiac population from what I gather. Happy Syttende Mai!

Do you guys make your bread in a bread machine (mine does not have a gluten-free setting like some do) or int he oven? I have a mix of the gluten-free Pantry bread but haven't made it yet - just wondering which works better.

I used to make the GFP bread--I would mix it up in my Kitchenaid mixer, and then bake it in a loaf pan in the oven. It always came out fine.

HA! I was thinking all of that myself. I live right off of Kinnickinnic (spelled differently) in Milwaukee, WI.

I have yet to find a gluten-free bread that does not contain rice flour- either frozen or a mix. Maybe the Cebe mix doen't have rice. I'll have to check next time I head to Sun Harvest. Is there such a bread out there that is gluten-free and rice free?

Have a good day!

haven't tasted it, but found it on the internet. Hope this helps. I was hoping the food for life millet bread was rice-free, but no go. I'm going to give it a try anyway, and let others know how it is.

The glutenevolution also has rice/corn/soy/etc/gluten free banana bread mix.

I also love the Breads by Anna / Gluten Evolution. What I love about her breads are that they TASTE GOOD and that they have such WONDERFUL ingredients! It is a fabulous choice when you compare it with the ingredients in some other gluten-free premade breads. I was lucky enough to attend one of her classes and her recipe for stuffing was just delicious with her bread mix!

I make my own from scratch, too, that is very good. I think it tastes as good as Anna's, but her texture is better. And her pie crust mix...mmmm.....

Oh my gosh! You've GOT to try Whole Food Market's Sun-Dried Tomato Garlic Bread. Toasted with butter or margarine.

It's WONDERFUL! They sell it in the freezer section.

Even my father-in-law, who makes his OWN bread and has been pretty snitty lately, said it was okay, but then went back for two other pieces. :lol::D

      Thanks @trents I'll keep that in mind.

      One thing to be aware of is that reactions to gluten can sometimes be more severe after having been gluten free for a significant period of time. Something to think about in connection with a gluten challenge.

      Hi @trents Thanks for your reply and the clarification on terminology—most appreciated. My GP has referred us to a Paediatric Gastroenterologist, and we're waiting for an appointment. She mentioned they might want to do an endoscopy or run further testing. But that often with children they try to avoid scoping them.  She also said it could take months to get an appointment, which is why she recommended starting a gluten-free diet immediately to see if there's any improvement in his symptoms, growth, and blood tests. I have an appointment in 5 weeks with the Paediatrician (who ordered all the tests)—not the Gastroenterologist. I expect the Paediatrician will also recommend a Gastroenterologist referral for further testing and diagnosis. I understand the reasons for confirming with biopsies. I'm just eager to help him feel better and I don't want to keep him eating gluten for months while waiting for a specialist when it's clearly affecting him. I really appreciate your input on this, especially your thoughts about this pointing to celiac rather than NCGS. Intuitively, it feels that way—he's always been incredibly healthy and strong, but he's suddenly wasting away. We're in Australia, so I'm not sure about benefits, etc. and needing a formal diagnosis. I’ll have to investigate.  If necessary to do a gluten challenge down the track for confirmation I'm happy to cross that bridge when I come to it. Thanks so much for your advice!

      Welcome to the forum, @cococo!  So. let me first clarify some terminology. Gluten intolerance is a general term that can refer either to celiac disease or NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity or "gluten sensitivity" for short). Having said that, in common, informal usage there is still a lot of mix up in the use of the terms "gluten sensitivity" and "gluten intolerance".  Elevated DGP-IGG can certainly indicate celiac disease but the IGG tests are considered not quite as specific for celiac disease as are the IGA tests, especially the TTG-IGA. If it were the TTG-IGA that gave a 250 score it would have been grounds for declaring an official diagnosis of celiac disease without further testing in the UK and many European countries. With children, however, because their immune systems are immature, we often see their celiac disease show up in the IGG tests rather than the IGA tests. Has their been any talk about an endoscopy with biopsy of the small bowel lining to confirm or disprove a diagnosis of celiac disease? The endoscopy/biopsy is considered the gold standard of celiac disease diagnosis. Physicians are not eager to do scoping on pediatric patients, however, and try to avoid that unless there is a very good reason for it.  I think to proceed with a gluten free diet experiment at this time is a reasonable approach. If there is improvement in labs, symptoms and growth then it is reasonable to assume that there is celiac disease to blame or at least NCGS. At the end of the day, both conditions require a gluten free diet anyway. But I would also have to say that when looking at the total body of evidence you present, it looks much more like celiac disease than NCGS.  One caution, however, and that is if you are in the UK there are certain government provided benefits that incur from a formal diagnosis of celiac disease. I mention that because some of your spelling suggests that to me.

      Hi all, I'd love some feedback on my 11 year old son who is waiting for a diagnosis. He has been unwell for about 6 months. His symptoms include: early morning (4/5am) nausea and vomiting, loose bowels, fatigue, headaches, aching legs, persistent dermatitis on cheeks. Recently, I noticed he wasn't growing as expected. After measuring him, we found his height had dropped from above 50th percentile to 25th, and weight from 50th percentile to 5th. I took him to our GP who confirmed he only grew 2cm in the past year and lost weight, and subsequently referred us to a paediatrician. We saw the paediatrician who ordered extremely comprehensive tests (including urine and poo testing, x-ray on wrist, hormones, thyroid, liver, kidney, diabetes checks, etc). While waiting for all results, our GP received some preliminary findings indicating coeliac disease. The GP recommended starting a gluten-free diet and referred us to a paediatric gastroenterologist. Most test results are normal except: Iron levels:  18 (normal range 20-200) Anisocytosis and Microcytosis (abnormal sized red blood cells indicating iron deficiency anaemia) Coeliac-related results: DGP IgG:     >250 (normal <15) DGP IgA:      8 (normal <15) Tissue IgA:   1 (normal <15) Tissue IgG:   1 (normal <15) Genetic markers are present for coeliac A comment was made on the blood tests that total serum IgA would be tested and commented on if below 0.07. There was no comment so I assume it wasn’t that low. While I understand it could be coeliac disease, gluten intolerance, or wheat allergy, his significant growth issues suggest coeliac. The paediatrician won't see me for 5 more weeks (because he's waiting for one more test he did on his chromosomes), but I'm concerned about waiting that long given his symptoms. Clearly he shouldn't be eating gluten regardless of the diagnosis, and I'm keen to help him feel better and start growing again, especially with puberty approaching. The blood tests were extremely comprehensive and ruled out everything except coeliac disease or a strong gluten intolerance. My GP is adamant it must be coeliac because of his symptoms. My GP said, "Don't worry about the chromosome test—that's just precautionary. His blood tests, weight loss, lack of growth, iron deficiency, fatigue, dermatitis, and other symptoms all point to coeliac." Would starting a gluten-free diet now and doing a gluten challenge later be unreasonable? (I do understand the reason to wait for a clear diagnosis, I just want him to feel better. Also, he is homeschooled so I can very much be in control of his food to ensure no cross contamination, etc) Also, does anyone have experience with highly elevated DGP IgG (but normal other results) and testing positive for coeliac? For what its worth, I personally have had many checks for Coeliac over the years and the results are always "unclear". Apparently I'm a complicated case, so I just eat gluten-free. Thanks!
