Kinnikinnick White Sandwich Bread

I have tried a lot of breads since going gluten free. In my pre-dx days I always preferred white breads, wonder sponge types. Kinnikinnick has THE BEST white bread substitution! I generally buy things directly from them in major bulk since they have flat rate $10 shipping. Actually, my husband bought me a huge upright freezer for the basement for Christmas just so I could stockpile frozen foods. Anyway, my most recent order I ordered a huge amount of bread, all different kinds... We've had most of them before, but not all. I never really liked this white sandwich bread before because it always burns in the toaster... I figured out why. If you toast it until it's warm, but not darkened, still soft and moist, then it tastes FABULOUS! It feels like a regular sandwich! I warm it in the toaster and then let it cool down before topping. This makes the absolute best sandwich I've had since going gluten free! Enjoy!

I'm happy you found it too, I always used to eat pepperidge farm white bread, and was so sad bc i'd never eat it again, this is so close, I practically had a little party when I tasted my first piece=D They also make bagels that are great (obv gluten-free) and some other yummy bread-like products =D

He he he... Yeah, I buy Kinnikinnick everything. Even their flours are way better than some others that I've tried. Plus, I trust them 100%. I love all of their bread products that I've tried thus far, bagels included, and I really like their ginger snap cookies. My husband can't keep his hands off of them either. Have you tried their cinnamon rolls yet? They're very good. I could sit down and eat almost a whole tray at one sitting if I didn't stop myself. The only things that I've had from them and didn't like were the animal cookies (weird texture) and hot cross buns (maybe I just don't like hot cross buns, never had them before). Everything else I've tried is perfect! Have you experimented with their cake mixes? I generally don't buy mixes as I make everything from scratch, but this year I think I'm going to try to make an actual cake for my daughter's birthday instead of cupcakes. I bought the white cake mix. I'm praying it turns out. I may make yellow cupcakes the day before just to be safe. I really want her to not feel left out as this is her first gluten free birthday. Everyone will be eating gluten free, they just won't know it. :) And I'm not volunteering the info unless someone comments on the fact that DD and I are eating the stuff. :)

I just had a peanut butter and banana sandwich out of their white bread :P I've been using their product for years.

Their angel food cake is awesome ... I buy the egg whites by those little cartons for it. One of those little cartons say that it is equivilant to 8 egg whites, however I always add another two egg white to get it to raise better.

We use either whip cream and crushed pinapple, or whip cream and strawberries for icing on angel food cake. Yummy!

My daughter (now 40) has had an angel food cake every year since her first birthday. It used to be the gluten ones, but now she loves the Kinnikinnick ones just as well.

This is not a Kinnickinnick bash :rolleyes:: I really like Kinnikinnick and I think it's an amazing product for most celiacs. However, Kinnikinnick products give me some pretty crazy allergic reactions. I think my body can't tolerate some of the chemicals in that stuff. I'm sure it's gluten-free. I don't think it's a gluten issue. I just want to throw that out there for the people who suffer from mysterious symptoms and eat a lot of kinnickinick. It might be something to consider.

My family also loves Kinnickinnick. Our favorites are Tapioca Rice Cheese bread and K-toos cookies. I also use their graham cracker crumbs and chocolate cookie crumbs. Just used them last weekend to make Rum Cream Pie and Chocolate Mousse Pie for family and friends, most of whom are not celiac. Everybody loved them!

I found it a few days ago while out of town. I haven't had a grilled cheese in over a year and a half.

Pretty darn good. :)

If you like the sandwich you have to try the italian. I have celiac teeth so I zap it first but if you just toast it or put garlic butter on it an put it in the oven it actually has a wonderful crust. My fav part of the bread. I love this companies products. Their sandwich cookies are great also.

We just bought the frozen Kinnikinnick white bread and my son liked it. I was wondering if you are talking about the frozen one or the bread mix. I haven't tried the bread mix yet and was wondering what people thought of the mix?

I haven't seen any of their products around here. Checked the website and your right , there are some unusuall ingredients in there. Only white rice flour (I've got to try that). Xanthan gum substitutes. Baking soda in addition to yeast. Bunch of other stuff. They're obviously on to something.

best regards, lm

One nice thing they do though is have an 'Answer Section' if you go into it it explains what some of the weird stuff is and what it is derived from. I wish all food companies would do that.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg). Both are gluten free and free of other allergens. I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25". It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA. It's a powder form of Vitamin A. ...

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      I wouldn't consider this lucky. I can NOT tolerate the symptoms. And I googled it and I was not even getting 10 grams of gluten per day and I was extremely ill. They'd have to put me in the hospital. I'm not kidding. I will have my first appt with a GI dr on March 4th I will not eat gluten again - at least not on purpose ...

      Gluten free Yogurt suggest

      I would not think store bought yogurt would contain gluten unless it possibly could be through an added flavoring or coloring ingredient. Otherwise, it should be naturally gluten free. Keep in mind that some companies are capitalizing on people's fears and ignorance (nothing personal intended) by labeling foods "gluten free" that are just that way by...

      I take Now B-1 (100 mg) Thiamine Hydrochloride, and Amazing Formulas L-Tryptophan (1000 mg).   Both are gluten free and free of other allergens.  I've taken them for a long time and haven't had a problem with them. I take Vitamin A from BioTech called "A-25".  It's gluten and allergen free and made in the USA.  It's a powder form of Vitamin A.  I was having trouble digesting fats at one point, but found I tolerated the powder form much better and have stuck with it since.   Tryptophan and Vitamin A help heal the intestines as well as improves skin health.  I get Dermatitis Herpetiformis and eczema flairs when my stomach is upset.  So I'm healing the outside as well as the inside.   I take one 1000 mg Tryptophan before bedtime.   With the Thiamine HCl, take 100 mg to start.  If you don't notice anything, three hours later take another. You can keep increasing your dose in this manner until you do notice improvement.  Remember not to take it in the evening so it won't keep you too energized to sleep. When I first started Thiamine HCl, taking 500 mg to 1000 mg to start was recommended.  If you've been thiamine insufficient for a while, you do notice a big difference.  It's like the start of a NASCAR race: Zoom, Zoom, turn it up!   This scared or made some people uncomfortable, but it's just your body beginning to function properly, like putting new spark plugs in your engine.  I took 1000 mg all at once without food.  It kicked in beautifully, but I got a tummy ache, so take with food.  I added in Thiamine TTFD and Benfotiamine weeks later and felt like I was Formula One racing.  So cool.  You may feel worse for a couple days as your body adjusts to having sufficient thiamine.  Feels sort of like you haven't cranked your engine for a while and it backfires and sputters, but it will settle down and start purring soon enough.  Adjust your dose to what feels right for you, increasing your dose as long as you feel improvement.  You can reach a plateau, so stay there for several days, then try bumping it up again.  If no more improvements happen, you can stay at the plateau amount and experiment with increasing your Thiamine TTFD.  It's like being your own lab rat.  LoL Yes, take one Benfotiamine at breakfast and one at lunch.  Take the B Complex at breakfast. Take the TTFD at breakfast and lunch as well.  I like to take the vitamins at the beginning of meals and the NeuroMag at the end of meals.   You may want to add in some zinc.  I take Thorne Zinc 30 mg at breakfast at the beginning of the meal.   Are you getting sufficient Omega Threes?  Our brains are made up mostly of fat.  Flaxseed oil supplements, sunflower seed oil supplements (or eat the seeds themselves) can improve that.  Cooking with extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil, or coconut oil is also helpful.   @Wheatwacked likes phosphotidyl choline supplements for his Omega Threes.  He's also had dramatic health improvement by supplementing thiamine.  You're doing great!  Thank you for sharing your journey with us.  This path will smooth out.  Keep going!

Otherwise, it should be naturally gluten free.  Keep in mind that some companies are capitalizing on people's fears and ignorance (nothing personal intended) by labeling foods "gluten free" that are just that way by the nature of what they are. They are hoping to create a marketing edge over their competitors by adding "gluten free" because they know it may catch attention of those new to the celiac/gluten sensitivity experience without having to cost them anything in the way of changing their manufacturing process or doing testing.
