Bread And Corn Tortillas Worth Buying

Hi! We are searching for gluten-free breads and gluten-free corn tortillas that others have found enjoyable. Our 18 month old currently has been eating Kininnick white sandwich bread almost daily. We haven't found any edible gluten-free corn tortillas!

Thanks for your help!

All of the Kinnikinnick breads that I've tried have been wonderful. Our favorite is the cheese bread. It doesn't have a strong cheese flavor at all and makes the BEST peanut butter sandwich of any of the breads I've tried thus far. I lightly toast it to thaw it. It stays soft and spongy like typical white bread.

Mission corn tortillas are really good. Wal-mart sells them. They say gluten free right on the bag. Be sure you warm them in the microwave before topping.

I get the Mission tortilias which are good and I buy Grainless Baker sandwich bread. Yummy!

Wow... I never found a decent bread but almost every gluten-free corn tortilla is perfectly good.

Indeed a hard tortilla shouldn't contain any wheat anyway... if it does its not a real corn tortilla.

We have been using Ener G Foods lite tapioca bread. My son loves it for french toast and grilled cheese. He is not much of a sandwich kid so I don't know how good it is for a sandwich.

I like Food for Life Red Rice and Black Rice bread. It's usually found in the freezer section. Mainstream grocery stores carry it, too, but they usually only have the brown rice bread which I think tastes icky.

I buy the mexican-style corn tortillas. You can get 3-dozen for a buck or two.

mission tortillas are pretty good, if you warm them w/ a damp paper towel on top (to soften). i like to keep some in my freezer :). usually though i try and get out to the local latino market, where they sell 2lb bags of fresh (smell so good!) tortillas for a dollar. they're the best kind! so soft and tasty!

i've not been eating much bread, but the only kind i really like is a recipe from eating gluten free website. mmm, great recipes there!

Hello,

As far as bread is concerned, I haven't found any brand that is similar to the wheat versions, as far as texture, consistency and taste is concerned. However, my whole family and all of the neighbors kids love Mission corn wraps when browned/sauteed in cooking spray (PAM) approx. 1 minute each side and then lightly salted. We fill them with ham, turkey, bologne, taco's, chicken, even tuna or egg salad. We are in the Baltimore area too-

Enjoy!!!

      I agree, there can be contamination at many points--milling is another possible source of contamination for any flours.

      Keep in mind that with manufactured food products, "gluten free" doesn't equate to no gluten. Things that are naturally gluten free can be cross-contaminated with gluten in the field, in shipping and in processing. In the U.S. companies can use the gluten free label as long as the product doesn't exceed 20ppm of gluten. That amount still may cause a reaction in some people.

      Dd10 was tested for celiac four years ago bc two siblings were dx’d (positive labs and biopsies). Her results at the time were positive ema  and ttg (7x the UL), but a negative biopsy. We checked again three months later and her ttg was still positive (4x the UL), but ema and biopsy were negative. Doc said it was “potential celiac” and to keep eating gluten, but we were concerned about harming her growth and development while young and had her go gluten-free because we felt the labs and ema in particular were very suggestive of early celiac, despite the negative biopsies. She also had stomach aches and lethargy when eating it. We just felt it’d be better to be safe than sorry. Now, four years later, she doesn’t want to be gluten-free if she doesn’t “have to be,” so underwent a 12 week gluten challenge. She had labs done before starting and all looked great (celiac panel all negative, as expected.) Surprisingly, she experienced no noticeable symptoms when she began eating gluten again, which we felt was a positive sign. However, 12 weeks in, her labs are positive again (ttg 4x the UL and ema positive again as well). Doc says that since she feels fine and her previous two biopsies showed nothing, she can just keep eating gluten and we could maybe biopsy again in two years. I was looking up the ema test and the probability of having not just one but two false positives, and it seems ridiculously low.  Any advice? Would you biopsy again? She’s old enough at this point that I really feel I need her buy-in to keep her gluten-free, and she feels that if the doc says it’s fine, then that’s the final word — which makes me inclined to biopsy again and hope that it actually shows damage this time (not because I want her to have celiac like her sisters, but because I kind of think she already does have it, and seeing the damage now would save her more severe damage in the long run that would come from just continuing to eat gluten for a few more years before testing again.)  Our doc is great - we really like him. But we are very confused and want to protect her. One of her older sibs stopped growing and has lots of teeth problems and all that jazz from not catching the celiac disease sooner, and we don’t want to get to that point with the younger sis. fwiw- she doesn’t mind the biopsy at all. It’s at a children’s hospital and she thinks it’s kind of fun. So it’s not like that would stress her out or anything.

      Thanks for the replies. I already use a gluten-free brand of buckwheat flakes I occasionally get itchy bumps. I'm still reviewing all my food products. I occasionally eat prepackaged gluten-free crackers and cookies, so I'll stop using those. I use buckwheat flakes and Doves Farm flour as a base for baking. Would you recommend eliminating those as well? It's a constant search.

      Gluten free food is not fortified with vitamins and minerals as regular food is.  Vitamin deficiencies are common especially in recently diagnosed persons,  Get a 25(OH)Vitamin D blood test. And work on raising it.  The safe upper blood level is around 200 nmol/L.    "Low serum levels of 25(OH)D have been associated with increased risk of autoimmune disease onset and/or high disease activity. The role of vitamin D in autoimmune diseases   🏋️‍♂️Good job!   I find the commercial milk will give me mild stomach burn at night, while pasture/grassfed only milk does not bother me at all.  While you are healing, listen to your body.  If it hurts to eat something, eat something else.  You may be able to eat it later, or maybe it is just not good for you.  Lower your Omega 6 to 3 ratio of what you eat.  Most omega 6 fatty acids are inflammation causing.    The standard american diet omega 6:3 ratio is estimated at upward of 14:1.  Thats why fish oil works
