Has Anyone Tried The Ener-g Tapioca Dinner Rolls?

My parents have been calling me the last couple days to tell me about the gluten-free meals they have had a Disneyworld and how good they are. One place brought them rolls and according to my dad they were so good they asked for the package to see if they could find them to buy. All they told me was they were Ener-g brand so I looked on the website and the tapioca rolls were all I see.

The nice thing is if we find really good products the lady at the health food store I go to wants to know what they are so they can order them because they have had so many people asking for gluten free foods lately!

So, does anyone know if the rolls are really that good?

OMgoodness!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I sell them in my store so I try to taste everything before I sell it so I can give an honest opinion. I took a bag home, took one out and nuked it for about 20 seconds, when I took it out I smelled it and I actually started to cry. I had not had a dinner roll for 9 months and it smelled and tasted wonderful. I put a little butter and honey on it and ended up eating three. Several of my customers have come back for more. I did have one person who thought they were a little grainy but she hadn't nuked it first. I know we all have differing tastes but I love them.

I have not tried the tapioca rolls but I did just try Whole Foods bakery dinner rolls that were gluten-free and they were sooo good!!!! I haven't had a roll in over a year.

My daughter isn't thrilled with them. I've bought them twice for holiday dinners at the request of my mom. I think it would have been easier if we'd just skipped all the rolls but since others insisted on rolls, it is hard for my daughter to sit and watch them eat rolls with none for her. Both times she merely picked at a roll, eating little more than a few nibbles. But on the way home she asked for a roll to eat in the car and she did eat it. Both times the rest of the package got thrown away after having sat until the rolls spoiled. She just didn't want any more. I should add that she has additional food allergies and can not have any butter or margarine. That might make a difference.

I have tried the rolls and like them very much. They are small but very nice to just pull out of the freezer when you want one or two. I'm not such a great baker so they great for me.

      So sorry to hear you are going through this!   What OTC med did you take?

      Yep,yep,yep, called it from experience.  I've lived through SIBO and Candida myself.  I get a different sorts of reactions to dairy, high sugar consumption, and gluten.  I react to Casein, the protein in dairy.   Try the AIP diet.  Dr. Sarah Ballantyne designed it and is a Celiac herself.  Her book, the Paleo Approach, has been most helpful.

      Yes, I know.   Without sufficient Folate, Cobalamine, and Pyridoxine, the body can't get rid of high homocysteine levels.  High homocysteine levels make one restless, interferes with sleep and resembles ADHD symptoms.  High homocysteine levels occur in Celiac Disease.  Chronic high histamine levels lead to high homocysteine levels.

      You called it @knitty kitty.  I went to another health care provider for another opinion, and based on some tests they did, they suggested I might also be dealing with a fungal issue (candida and/or mold).  I saw that you mentioned before in this chain that some people on this forum also get Candida infections.  So it seems that I am possibly dealing that issue in my gut as well. I think some of the symptoms that I've been not able to understand now make a lot of sense within this context (such as why eating dairy and sugar sometimes causes me to get headaches, joint pain, chills, feel like I have the flu... if these things are making the candida infection worse by feeding the candida, and then my body responds by trying to fight it off, then I basically am fighting off an infection, which is exactly what it feels like).  The flu-like reaction that I get when I eat dairy is a distinct reaction than the one I get from getting glutened (which is also bad, but different: headache, sharp abdominal pains, gas, diarrhea). That's what made me think there was something else at play.

      I'm concerned about calcium.  I don't think I'm getting enough especially since I ended up having to get off dairy when I went gluten free.  However, if you have too much calcium, it can deposit in the wrong places and you can get thinks like bone spurs.  I'd like find a decent supplement for that.  Was thinking of looking into the algae based calcium supplements since they're more natural than some of the others available, but seem rather expensive.  When possible, I try supplement with food sources.  One or two Brazil nuts usually have the full RDA for selenium.  One Barbados cherry has the daily RDA for vitamin C.  I also use seaweed to help supplement iodine since I don't use iodized salt.
