Incredible gluten-free Breads & Bagels

I went to the Suffolk County Celiac Vendor Fair today and I found 2 amazing products. Both a gluten-free Bread (actually 2 different kinds) and gluten-free bagels that taste incredible. But one of the best parts is that they taste great without toasting or adding a ton of stuff to make them edible.

The bread I tried is made by the Gluten Free Bread Basket. I had both the Mock Rye and Country Sandwich Bread. Yummy!! I just had a roast beef sandwich on the country sandwich bread. I didn't toast it, didn't add any condiments - and it was a delicious normal sandwich!

The website is www.gfbreadbasket.com

The bagel I tried was from Joan's gluten-free Great Bakes. It was incredible! I didn't even have anything on the bagel. Just tried a piece of the plain bagel and OMG it tasted like a normal bagel!!! (And I'm from NY so I have a high standard of what a bagel should taste like). They had other varieties besides plain but that was the only sample I tried. Unfortunately they were all sold out but I will definately be ordering them.

If you want to try them the e-mail address is: gfgreatbakes@yahoo.com or the phone number is (516) 680-7923.

There were some other great products there but this is the first time I have found great breads that I can eat like a normal person and not have to toast to make slightly edible never mind actually enjoyable, so I wanted to share.

that sounds wonderful, I wonder how long (or if) before they make it to the general market... I would really like a bagel that really tastes like a bagel and sandwich bread that doesn't need to be toasted to be edible!

I know you can definately order the products to be shipped from both vendors. I think they are both to small scale to end up in like a Whole Foods in the near future. But I would definately reccomend ordering. Whatever the shipping cost may be it is definately worth it!

So jealous about the fair--sounds like fun! I never did make it to the Bread Basket on my trip. It sounded really good though!

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.

      Been off this forum for years. Is it that important that you get an official diagnosis of something? It appears like you had a trigger (wheat, gluten, whatever) and removing it has resolved your symptom. I can't speak for you, but I had known what my trigger was (gluten) years before my diagnosis I would just stay gluten-free and get on with my symptom free condition. I was diagnosed over 20 years ago and have been symptom free only excluding wheat, rye and barley. I tolerate all naturally gluten free whole foods including things like beans which actually helps to form the stools.

      No coincidence. Recent revisions to gluten challenge guidelines call for the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten (about the amount in 4-6 slices of wheat bread) for a minimum of 3 weeks. If possible, I would extend that two weeks to ensure valid testing.

      Thank you both for the replies. I decided to bring back gluten so I can do the blood test. Today is Day #2 of the Challenge. Yesterday I had about 3 slices of whole wheat bread and I woke up with urgent diarrhea this morning. It was orange, sandy and had the distinctive smell that I did not have when I was briefly gluten free. I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the brain fog is back and I feel very tired.

      @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.
