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.

PEI is beautiful, with probably some of the nicest beaches in North America. Are you talking about Anne of Green Gables?

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...

      Hello all! My life in the last five years has been crazy. I got married in 2020 at the age of 27, pregnant with our first child almost two months later, gave birth in 2021. We had another baby in April of 2023 and our last baby this March of 2025. I had some issues after my second but nothing ever made me think, "I should see a doctor about this." After having my last baby this year, my body has finally started to find its new rhythm and balance...but things started to feel out of sorts. A lot of symptoms were convoluted with postpartum symptoms, and, to top it all off, my cycle came back about 4m postpartum. I was having reoccurring migraines, nausea, joint pain, numbness in my right arm, hand and fingers, tummy problems, hives. I finally went to my PCP in August just for a wellness check and I brought up my ailments. I'm so thankful for a doctor that listens and is thorough. He ended up running a food allergy panel, an environmental respiratory panel, and a celiac panel. I found out I was allergic to wheat, allergic to about every plant and dust mites, and I did have celiac. I had an endoscopy done on October 3 and my results confirmed celiac in the early stages! I am truly blessed to have an answer to my issues. When I eat gluten, my brain feels like it's on fire and like someone is squeezing it. I can't think straight and I zone out easily. My eyes can't focus. I get a super bad migraine and nausea. I get so tired and irritable and anxious. My body hurts sometimes and my gut gets bloated, gassy, constipated, and ends with bowel movements. All this time I thought I was just having mom brain or feeling the effects of postpartum, sleep deprivation, and the like (which I probably was having and the celiac disease just ramped it up!) I have yet to see a dietician but I've already been eating and shopping gluten-free. My husband and I have been working on turning our kitchen 100% gluten-free (we didn't think this would be so expensive but he assured me that my health is worth all the money in the world). There are still a few things to replace and clean. I'm already getting tired of reading labels. I even replaced some of my personal hygiene care for myself and the kids because they were either made with oats or not labeled gluten-free. I have already started feeling better but have made some mistakes along the way or have gotten contamination thrown into the mix. It's been hard! Today I joked that I got diagnosed at the worst time of the year with all the holidays coming up. I will just need to bring my own food to have and to share. It will be okay but different after years of eating "normally". Today I ordered in person at Chipotle and was trying not to feel self-conscious as the line got long because they were following food-allergy protocols. It's all worth it to be the healthiest version of myself for me and my family. I would be lying if I said I wasn't a little overwhelmed and a little overloaded!  I am thankful for this community and I look forward to learning more from you all. I need the help, that's for sure!

      On the AIP diet, all processed foods are eliminated.  This includes gluten-free bread.  You'll be eating meats and vegetables, mostly.  Meats that are processed, like sausages, sandwich meats, bacons, chicken nuggets, etc., are eliminated as well.  Veggies should be fresh, or frozen without other ingredients like sauces or seasonings.  Nightshade vegetables (eggplant, potatoes, tomatoes, peppers) are excluded.  They contain alkaloids that promote a leaky gut and inflammation.  Dairy and eggs are also eliminated.   I know it sounds really stark, but eating this way really improved my health.  The AIP diet can be low in nutrients, and, with malabsorption, it's important to supplement vitamins and minerals.

      Thank you for responding and for prayers.  So sorry for your struggles, I will keep you in mine.  You are so young to have so many struggles, mine are mild by comparison.  I didn't have Celiac Disease (celiac disease) until I had my gallbladder removed 13 years ago; at least nothing I was aware of.  Following surgery: multiple symptoms/oddities appeared including ridges on fingernails, eczema, hair falling out in patches, dry eyes, upset stomach constantly and other weird symptoms that I don't really remember.  Gastro did tests and endoscopy and verified celiac disease. Re heart: I was born with Mitral Valve Prolapse (MVP) and an irregular heartbeat, yet heart was extremely strong.  It was difficult to pick up the irregular heartbeat on the EKG per cardiologist.  I had Covid at 77, recovered in 10 days and 2 weeks later developed long Covid. What the doctors and nurses called the "kickoff to long Covid, was A-fib.  I didn't know what was going on with my heart and had ignored early symptoms as some kind of passing aftereffect stemming from Covid.  I was right about where it came from, but wrong on it being "passing".  I have A-fib as my permanent reminder of Covid and take Flecainide every morning and night and will for the rest of my life to stabilize my heartbeat.

      When I accidentally consume gluten it compromises the well-being of my heart and arteries. Last time I had a significant exposure, about six months ago, I had AFib for about ten days. It came on every day around dinner time. After the ten days or so it went away and hasn't come back.  My cardiologist offered me a collection of pharmaceuticals at the time.  But I passed on them. 
    • klmgarland
      So I should not eat my gluten free bread?  I will try the vitamins.  Thank you all so very much for your ideas and understanding.  I'm feeling better today and have gathered back my composure! Thank you kitty kitty   I am going to look this diet up right away.  And read the paleo diet and really see if I can make this a better situation then it currently is.
