Review Of Sterk's Gluten Free Italian Bread And Hamburger Buns

Hi everyone

So I consider myself somewhat an afficionado of gluten free bread. With 5 years of solid gluten free eating behind me I have tried most of the breads out there. This week I decided to order toaster covers-and decided to get a few other things from this allergy grocer site I was on. I ordered Sterk's gluten free italian bread and their hamburger buns. I will say that the bread is very tasty--it has that spongy consistency very similar to Kinnininnick bread and seems to hold together pretty well-though when I transported it this AM it split in two, but at least it didn't crumble into a million pieces like other breads I have tried.

The hamburger buns are a different story---I think these would be better used as english muffins, they are far too dense for hamburger buns, not to mention extremly dry and sort of tasteless. I had a hard time swallowing them and the burger at the same time! Maybe they would have improved if I had toasted them but I have come to realize that maybe I don't even like hamburgers with the bun anymore--its just too much food for me. Give me lettuce wraps anyday.

But two thumbs up for the bread despite it being about 5 dollars a loaf! Hey I will pay for non crumbly bread anyday!

      Wheat Straw Dishes

      By SophiesMom · Posted

      I have been looking for new dishes. I was surprised to find dishes made of wheat straw. Are these safe for us? I'm very careful to avoid products that may contain gluten. I never thought I might have to check for wheat in dishes.

      IgA levels - What do they mean?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Hope07! The reference range would refer to what is considered normal in healthy people. So, 7 or less would mean there is no indication of "active" celiac disease. Apparently, you are doing very will in avoiding gluten. The "Tissue Transglutaminase IGA" is the centerpiece antibody test that clinicians run when checking for celiac disease. My only reservation would be that whenever the TTG-IGA test is run, a "total IGA" test should also be run to check for IGA deficiency. When IGA deficiency is present, other IGA tests, such as the TTG-IGA can be artificially low and result in false positives. In the absence of any symptoms indicating your celiac disease is not under control, however, I would take the result you posted at face value.

      Cruise and GliadinX

      By StevieP. · Posted

      Going on a cruise next week and I’m a celiac. Bought a bottle of GliandinX. Should I just take two tablets per day as a precaution? Never tried this before!! Any help is appreciated!!

      By Hope07 · Posted

      Hola! Not sure if I’m asking this in the right place so apologies if not! I just had a full blood count as part of my first check up after being diagnosed with celiac disease 7 years ago!! With Covid lockdowns then living in Spain for 3 years and now back in the UK, I kept getting missed in the system but finally I’ve had a check up! Does anyone know what this means?  Tissu transglutaminase IgA lev:  0.30 U/ml Reference range:  Below 7 Thank you!
