Wow! So far this week I've tried Kinnikinnick Foods' white bread hamburger and hotdog buns and guess what?....

THEY ARE AWESOME!!! Just like regular bread and rolls!

Tonight I'm trying the pizza crust. Haven't had a pizza a months!

Yipeeeee!!! I'll let you know how the pizza is!

Hi donna - I also love the Kinnikinnick pizza crusts - best I've tasted to date, and so easy - from freezer to plate in 10-15 minutes. Last night I made Chebe bread into garlic bread - it was awesome! (my first try with chebe was when i was first diagnosed, and I didn't like the dense chewiness of it...this time I added a tsp of baking powder to the dry mix and followed directions for the rest, and it came out beautifully) I'd love to use Chebe for hamburger buns, etc. but it is dairy, and we don't mix meat and milk foods at the same meal (we keep kosher) but for those of you who don't care....try it !

OH YES! The pizza is EEEXXXCellent! If only I could get in nice and greasy like the pizza place does ;) . Where do they put all that oil anyway? The crust first, or on top of everything?

Sara, thanks for the tip. I'm not one to bake much though, but I've a feeling all of that is about to change soon. I doubt I'll be able to afford buying everything in the mail like this!

no coments on these items yet- haven't tried any and won't until I actually go gluten-free... but as to the oily crust.. pizza places place oil in the pan in large quantity then the crust, then top and bake!

I worked at a Pizza Hut for a few years as a second job when I was younger...

Does anyone know of a Gluten Free Bread that tastes edible to pack a sandwich? I noticed that most of these breads are great if you eat them immediately after cooking them. My son has to pack his lunch for school, and after a hour or so, most of the breads taste like cardboard. Any ideas/suggestions? Thank you!

Food for Life's breads, I find to taste just fine - but I've only ever tried their fruit juice sweetened breads with peanut butter and jelly.

Try Kinniknick's lemon cranberry cookies, they are wonderful. They used to have an anise cookie that was great also. Also try Hagman's recipe for tapioca bread and make bread sticks. I formed aluminum foil into creases and just dropped the dough into bread sticks after spraying the foil with Pam. Then I painted the breadsticks with garlic oil before raising and after they were in the oven for about 10 min. After about 15 minutes or when they are properly browning roll them out of the foil onto the cookie sheet and paint them again with garlic oil. Labor intensive but well worth the effort. Shirley

Kinnikinnick is my favourite brand. The cinnamon buns, cinnamon and sugar donuts, and english muffins are all great!

I use the Kinnikinnkck breads for my son. It's only been a week so I'm no expert - but they toast great, hold together for a sandwich and keep well with PB&J in an airtight container for lunch :)

MySuicidalTurtle Enthusiast

You should try some of their other products for your son. I am sure he'd love them. I stopped getting the bread and just stick with the english muffins and slice them up and toast them for everything. Their bageled are pretty yummie, too. I always buy a bunch of their products then freeze them.

I really enjoy Kinnkinnick's bread as well (as long as it is toasted).

Otherwise, I really like Whole Foods Gluten Free Sun Dried Tomato Bread - YUMMY!

I just bought a breadmachine, but I haven't the foggiest idea how to use it.

I hope to gain some courage in 2007 and go buck wild while baking bread!

:)

Rebecca,

try www.kinnikinnick.com

or go to Wild Oats - they just signed a huge national contract with Kinnikinnick to carry their stuff..

Yeah, Kinnikinnick is my second favorite kind of bread. My favorite is homemade in the oven (in less than half an hour) with a pizza crust recipe. Yum.

Finally I have heard someone else give Props to Kinniniki they have the best breads out there.Their sandwich bread is awesome. This year Thanksgiving was awesome thanx to the turkey sandwich I had the next day.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.
