Aaron, Im a three hour drive north of you, so don't really know what is specifically in London. What I do know, though, is that really the only places you can get things like good rice bread are usually health food stores.

This is a link to a site with the addresses of two health food stores in London. The Canada 411 site is down right now, I tried to check there. You might want to check it tomorrow.

I couldn't find anything in St. Thomas, again, because Canada 411 is down.

Also, if you have a Garden IGA, or a Sobeys, they carry Tinkyada pasta (cheaper than in the health food store), and may even have gluten-free breads. They do have Bob's Red Mill products as well, which will enable you to bake your own stuff. Just make sure you only buy their gluten-free products (they produce food that isn't gluten-free as well). And they have cookies. Check out their health food section, or ask a manager or one of the people who work in the bakery department.

The health food store will also have all kinds of mixes, and gluten-free flours, and probably gluten-free cookbooks.

Aaron, do you have a Loblaws Superstore? They usually have gluten-free items. Also, the Great Canadian Superstore near me has a huge selection of gluten-free items..... do you have one of those in your area?

Be sure to look in the frozen sections of your supermarket - the Kinnickinnick breads and stuff are always in the frozen section......

try the good ol' world wide web....amazon .com usually has some good deals :) good luck!

also, don't forget about regular grocery store items (rice, meat, veggies, etc...) that are naturally gluten-free!!!

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
