I like Ener-g brand.

They make potato starch flour, tapioca flour, and rice flour.

The bean flour, I can't help you with--I don't use it (legume intolerant)

Lister, I make my own bread out of the same things. You can buy all of them in bulk at lifesource, I know were around the samish area, do you guys have one down there? If not I would check some of your health food stores for a bulk area, its cheaper to buy that way.

I prefer the flours at www.kinnikinnick.com. They're relatively inexpensive and the shipping is set at $10 flat rate. Plus, I don't think there's any chance for cc with them.

i use Ener-g, Bob's and Nu-World Amaranth.

i do NOT recommend bulk flours. the same scoops/carelessness + flour in the air will definitely result in cross-contamination. i have seen employees using the same cloth to wipe each one.

it's not worth the risk to save a few bucks.

I agree with the cc risk of buying in bulk just anywhere. This particular store I recommended lister to is a very allergy friendly store, as far as I have seen the bulk area is extremely clean, scoops slide into the plastic bins they aren't just hanging on the side. Still the risk is always there, yes. On another note the employees there are very knowledgeable of their gluten free products. I had an employee print me out 7 pages of gluten free items in the store, I thought that was very helpful.

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

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.

      Thanks a lot for your response! Can you maybe specify which kind of cheeses I should be cautious about? Camembert/Brie and blue cheeses (the molds of which are nowadays mostly grown on gluten-free media, though, so I've read, right?) or other ones as well? Also, I was under the impression that yeast is generally gluten-free if not declared otherwise. Is that false?
