I went to Whole Foods to buy some GFB reg. bread but found there are two versions and I don't know what the difference is. I love their sun dried tomato and cin. raisin breads but I'm looking for the plainest flavor bread so I can make sandwiches or toast and such. The two breads in question are the Prairie Bread and the Sandwich bread. Does anyone know what the difference in the two is tastewise?

Tiffany,

The plainer of the two breads would be the Sandwich Bread. I used to eat that, and it's very good.

The Prairie Bread, as I remember, has seeds and possibly other things mixed in. :)

Thanks Patti! I thought it was you that posted about this bread but then I went to look it up and didn't find it.

Our Whole Foods is moving next month. I'm happy that the store is going to be fabulous BUT it's going to be over five miles futher from me now. In any case, the current store is closing mid Sept. and will not open back for two weeks so in case there are others out there who shop at WF/Harry's in Duluth, keep in mind to stock up as you won't be able to shop at that local for about two weeks.

My new fave store is Return 2 Eden and you live in the Metro Atlanta area, do yourself a favor and check it out. So far they have the most gluten-free items of any place I've found around town. Lucky for me it's right off 85 which I have to travel to see clients so I just take a small cooler and shop on the way home from meetings.

Most prices are either lower than WF of the same. The owner decided to try and build their gluten free offerings in hopes to increase business. All the gluten free items are marked with purple tags - it's simply wonderful!

Ooh--we used to love Harry's! (No Whole Foods back then!) We'd go most Sundays, after church :)

We have found that late Sunday afternoon is THE time to visit Harry's/WF. We did to go on Saturday but it's a zoo then and you know with all the label reading it's kind of hard not to be in the way of others. If I must have something for Sat. night then I run over during lunch on Friday and pick up a few things. I'm pretty excited about the new store. I guess it's something similar to one I think nini went to in Orlando but I could be mixing that up. Anyway it will be nice and I guess I'll just have to make new longer trek and be thankful that I have such a store when I know others who drive here from AL to stock up every few months or so.

I didn't go to one in Orlando, it was Sarasota, and it was phenomenal!

I am supposed to be doing something with Dr. Joe Esposito at Return to Eden next month... (a gluten free food demo!)

We are also going to be doing the same food demo at Life Grocery and at Harry's/Whole Foods in Marietta...

I've also been asked to start doing gluten-free tours at Life Grocery

i too have tried them both and they're both excellent. The prairie bread, as mentioned, has sunflower seeds and a bunch of other earthy things, so it has a nuttier taste and a nice crunch. The most simple flavor though is the sandwhich bread.

Oh, and fyi, I'd consider freezing a portion. I find mine usually spoils (even in the fridge) before I get to the end of the loaf...

Thanks everyone. I'm looking forward to getting some GFB sandwich bread soon but I still have Bry's in the freezer so hubby said no more bread until you eat what you have - lol! We have a reg. side-by-side fridge so my gluten-free stuff is taking over the small freezer. Plus I got some awesome Breads from Anna bread yesterday and I'm itching to make that too. Without question that is my FAVE gluten-free bread of all time. But you have to make it and it costs an arm and a leg. So I'll stick with GFB stuff except for special occasions (like when I want to serve others bread without them knowing it's gluten free). Bry's bread is the best bread to travel with since it's vaccuum packed you don't have to freeze it until after you open it. It's not good unless toasted but then, I have a hard time believing it's gluten free.

Whole Foods gluten free bakehouse sandwich bread is the ONLY type of gluten-free bread I like. I usually refrigerate one half and freeze the other. It is very tasty!

The banana bread is also amazing, along with the muffins (although sometimes they can be a bit dry in the middle) and the walnut brownies! :)

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg). Both are gluten free and free of other allergens. I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25". It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA. It's a powder form of Vitamin A. ...

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding. I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose ...

      Gluten free Yogurt suggest

      I would not think store bought yogurt would contain gluten unless it possibly could be through an added flavoring or coloring ingredient. Otherwise, it should be naturally gluten free. Keep in mind that some companies are capitalizing on people's fears and ignorance (nothing personal intended) by labeling foods "gluten free" that are just that way by...

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!

Otherwise, it should be naturally gluten free.  Keep in mind that some companies are capitalizing on people's fears and ignorance (nothing personal intended) by labeling foods "gluten free" that are just that way by the nature of what they are. They are hoping to create a marketing edge over their competitors by adding "gluten free" because they know it may catch attention of those new to the celiac/gluten sensitivity experience without having to cost them anything in the way of changing their manufacturing process or doing testing.
