We make our own bread using Pamela's mix. It's our absolute favorite. I was never able to find a store bought bread that we liked. I'd love to know what the lactose free American cheese is. What is the brand and where did you find it? Thanks!

Kinnikinnik bread isn't too bad, but it's spongy if it's not toasted, so it'd be perfect for grilled cheese.

Whole Foods also has a white bread that's not bad.

You have to look in the frozen food section for both of these breads. Kinnikinnik is only availabe at certain stores (I found one near me from their website) and Whole Foods bread is obviously at Whole Foods. ;)

I like the Tapioca Loaf...I think it's Ener-G brand, but I really can't remember for sure...it's the only tapioca loaf I've ever seen. Kind of expensive, but I grill it on top of the stove and make grilled cheese (I use fake, casein-free cheese), peanut butter/jelly, all kinds of sandwiches (after grilling the slices first), and even French toast. We've liked it pretty well.

The Whole Foods Sandwich Bread has milk in it :(

On the rare occasion I eat bread, I like the Gluten Free Pantry French Bread Mix. It's super simple to make--just mix it up in a big bowl, and bake it in the oven :D

Ener-G Foods' Corn Loaf is gluten, dairy, soy, egg and sugar free. and fantastic. My husband tried an Ener-G foods bread sampler pack and loved Corn Loaf much more than other NRG bread products. He's not even celiac, but avoids gluten to avoid arthritis symptoms. We're lucky in the Seattle area to not only have Ener-G but also a local gluten free bakery/restaurant 'Da Vinci's' whose owner features an 'EDS' (egg, dairy, soy, gluten free) bread which looks like a white bread but tastes great. She sometimes adds sweet potato flour and pecans (my favorite) to her EDS recipes. Kinnikinnick also has some great 'white' breads.

My favorite is the navy bean white bread from Celiac Specialties. Celiac Specialties is based in Michigan, but you can order from there website.

Kinnikinnick white bread is OK when toasted. Otherwise, as someone said above...it tastes like a sponge.

Whole Foods bread is alright. It's fairly thick and is about 500 calories for 2 small slices. I believe it is rice based.

ebrbetty, is it the lactose in dairy that's a problem for you or the casein?

I think it tastes like a good sour dough bread and makes great sandwiches. It's low carb, low calorie and high fiber ... just what I want in a sandwich bread so I can load up on fillings. LOL

Sterks sandwhich bread.

Sterks sandwhich bread.

never heard of it, where do you find it?

Carriefaith Enthusiast

Sterk's is hard to find. I used to be able to buy it in health food stores on Prince Edward Island.

I did a search on google and found this:

Go to breads, buns and mixes and then look for Sterk's Sandwich bread. It should be on the second page.

I tried grilled cheese with the Kinnikinnik... I thought it was disgusting... shoulda put tomato or something on it to flavor it a little... I'm soooo looking forward to getting my bread from gfbreadbasket... I heard on here that it is waaaaay better than what we're used to tasting in our gluten-free bread...

Robina Contributor

Got my order from gluten free breadbasket today... I bought the country white bread, crusty rolls, bagels and bread crumbs...

Tested out a slice of the country white with peanut butter... toasted... and it's not too bad... I mean it's not as tasty as regular glutenous breads obviously but it will do the job... the texture and taste of this bread is the closest to regular bread as I've tried... it is definitely waaaaay better than the different brands I've tried... including Kinickkinicks or whatever the heck it's called... anyway I'm trying out a crusty roll tonight when the family has italian sausage sandwiches...

      I was not taking any medications previous to this. I was a healthy 49 yo with some mild stomach discomfort. I noticed the onset of tinnitus earlier this year and I had Covid at the end of June. My first ‘flare-up’ with these symptoms was in August and I was eating gluten like normal. I had another flare-up in September and then got an upper endo at the end of September that showed possible celiac. My blood test came a week later. While I didn’t stop eating gluten before I had the blood test, I had cut back on food and gluten both. I had a flare-up with this symptoms after one week of gluten free but wasn’t being crazy careful. Then I had another flare-up this week. I think it might have been caused by Trader Joe’s baked tofu which I didn’t realize had wheat. But I don’t know if these flare-ups are caused by gluten or if there’s something else going on. I am food journaling and tracking all symptoms. I have lost 7 pounds in the last 10 days.

      Welcome to the forum, @Hmart! There are other medical conditions besides celiac disease that can cause villous atrophy as well as some medications and for some people, the dairy protein casein. So, your question is a valid one. Especially in view of the fact that your antibody testing was negative, though there are also some seronegative celiacs. So, do you get reactions every time you consume gluten? If you were to purposely consume a slice of bread would you be certain to develop the symptoms you describe?

      I only went on the multi vitamin AFTER a couple of year of high dose, targeted supplementation resolved most of my deficiencies.  I was on quite a cocktail of vitamins that was changed every 6 months as my deficiencies resolved.  Those that were determined to be genetic are still addressed with specific doses of those vitamins, minerals and amino acids. I have an update on my husband and his A Fib.  He ended up in the hospital in August 2025 when his A Fib would not convert.  He took the maximum dose of Flecainide allowed within a 24 hour period.  It was a nightmare experience!  They took him into the ER immediately.  They put in a line, drew blood, did an EKG and chest Xray all within minutes.  Never saw another human for 6 hours.  Never got any results, but obviously we could see he was still in A fib by watching the monitor.  They have the family sign up for text alerts at the ER desk.  So glad I did.  That is the only way we found out that he was being admitted.  About an hour after that text someone came to take him to his room on an observation floor.  We were there two hours before we saw another human being and believe it or not that was by zoom on the TV in the room.  It was admissions wanting to know his vaccine status and confirming his insurance, which we provided at the ER desk.  They said someone would be in and finally a nurse arrived.  He was told a hospitalist was in charge of his case.  Finally the NP for the hospitalist showed up and my husband literally blew his stack.  He got so angry and yelled at this poor woman, but it was exactly what he needed to convert himself to sinus rhythm while she was there.  They got an EKG machine and confirmed it.  She told him that they wanted to keep him overnight and would do an echo in the morning and they were concerned about a wound on his leg and wanted to do a doppler to make sure he did not have a DVT.  He agreed.  The echo showed everything fine, just as it was at his annual check up in June and there was no DVT.  A cardiologist finally showed up to discharge him and after reviewing his history said the A Fib was due to the Amoxicillan prescribed for his leg wound.  It both triggers A Fib and prevents the Flecainide from working.  His conversion coincided with the last dose of antibiotic getting out of his system.  So, make sure your PCP understands what antibiotics you can or cannot take if susceptible to A Fib.  This cardiologist (not his regular) wanted him on Metoprolol 25 mg and Pradaxa.  My husband told him that his cardiologist axed the idea of a beta blocker because his heart rate is already low.  Sure enough, it dropped to 42 on the Metoprolol and my husband felt horrible.  The pradaxa gave him a full body rash!  He went back to his cardiologist for follow up and his BP was fine and heart rate in the mid 50's.  He also axed the Pradaxa since my husband has low platelets, bruises easily and gets bloody noses just from Fish Oil  He suggested he take Black Cumin Seed Oil for inflammation.  He discovered that by taking the Black Seed oil, he can eat carbs and not go into A Fib, since it does such a good job of reducing inflammation.   Oh and I forgot to say the hospital bill was over $26,000.  Houston Methodist!

      The symptoms that led to my diagnosis were stomach pain, diarrhea, nausea, body/nerve tingling and burning and chills. It went away after about four days but led me to a gastro who did an upper endo and found I had marsh 3b. I did the blood test for celiac and it came back negative.  I have gone gluten free. In week 1 I had a flare-up that was similar to my original symptoms. I got more careful/serious. Now at the end of week 2 I had another flare-up. These symptoms seem to get more intense. My questions:  1. How do I know if I have celiac and not something else? 2. Are these symptoms what others experience from gluten?  When I have a flare-up it’s completely debilitating. Can’t sleep, can’t eat, can’t move. Body just shakes. I have lost 10 pounds since going gluten free in the last two weeks.
