WOW!

I went to our local health food store today. The guy was really great, and really helpful. He gave me a FREE loaf of Kinickkinnick (am I spelling that right?) Whole Grain Bread. it was REALLY dark brown and looked yummy. It was!!! Wow. It's $7 at the store, so it was a great free gift! WOW.

Anyway....I bought xanthum gum too but it was REALLY expensive there....so i won't be getting it there again, BUT it balanced out b/c of the free bread.

Did I mention that the bread was really good? I had a real live grilled cheese sandwich today and it TASTED like a grilled cheese sandwich.

Glad you got a free loaf. Seven dollars is $2 more than I pay at our local Wild Oats, so it seems that their bread is expensive, too!

BTW, I also like Kinnikinnick's donuts!

I'm going to check if our Whole Foods carries it. I mean, I hate to take the business elsewhere, BUT $2 bucks IS $2 bucks! LOL :D

I found a new bread for me. It's called energy, but it may be spelled differently. Light Tapioca. It is really soft and tastes wonderful. It's not in the freezer section, it's just on a shelf. The bad part, it has a short shelf life once opened; only a week, but it was only 3.80.

I disagree and i think that ener-g bread is disgusting. ew. Kinnikinnick bread is the best stuff out there by far. I have recently tried their donuts and they taste like real donuts! And i now order their mixes in bulk from the kinnikinnick website.

I wish I could find the Kinnickinnick (sp?) bread near me. I agree with Adam, I really don't like the Ener-G bread - it smells like alcohol or something in the bag, and then there is an even worse smell when toasting - BUT, my sister loves it, so to each their own.

I really enjoy the Food For Life gluten-free Rice Bread, but like many gluten-free breads - only toasted (The only kind of bread that I like without toasting is homemade!).

I like this Food For Life Bread when they don't sell it frozen. At my local Whole Foods they sell it frozen, but down the street at Trader Joe's they sell it on the shelf - it's cheaper, and for some reason, when not frozen, has a better texture. So at TJ's this bread is only about $3.80.

I've had the Kinnick bagles & donuts & they're both excellent.

      confirmed via biopsy, quite depressed

      By cristiana · Posted

      We've definitely all had such thoughts.  But as Scott says, it does get easier with time.  I'm not sure where you are posting from but in England where I live, over the last ten years or so most things I missed at first now have gluten free substitutes.   I still miss Twix bars, and chocolate Penguins (a type of biscuit) but I'm hoping sooner or later someone will create a decent substitute for them! One thing that I remember my husband said to me when I was feeling down one day  was: "Why don't you try to think of all the things you can still eat, rather than the things you can't?"  The list is long, and it did help - sort of!

      Quaker Instant Grits, gluten-free?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It looks like they are naturally gluten-free, but not labeled gluten-free. https://www.quakeroats.com/products/hot-cereals/grits/instant-grits-plain

      confirmed via biopsy, quite depressed

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I’m so sorry you’re feeling this way—your emotions are completely valid. A celiac diagnosis, especially at your age, is a huge adjustment, and it’s okay to grieve the foods and conveniences you’ve lost. Even with a supportive partner (which is wonderful!), the mental toll is real. Many of us have been there, staring longingly at ‘forbidden’ foods while feeling isolated or frustrated. It does get easier with time, though. The initial shock fades, gluten-free substitutes become more familiar, and you’ll find new favorites. But please be gentle with yourself now. If the sadness feels overwhelming, talking to a therapist or joining a celiac support group (online or in-person) might help. You’re not alone in this—we’ve all had those ‘why me?’ moments. Sending hugs (and solidarity) your way.

      Waiting on biopsy after positive bloodwork, but also not really believing this is real

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Gluten-Free Drinks

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While some radlers are made with gluten-free beer, many traditionally contain wheat-based beer, so it’s definitely good you double-checked. It’s surprising you didn’t have symptoms, but reactions can vary widely among celiacs. Some people are asymptomatic or have delayed reactions, while others feel effects immediately. Even if you didn’t notice symptoms, there could still be internal damage occurring, so it might be worth verifying the brand’s ingredients or contacting the manufacturer for clarity. In the future, sticking to certified gluten-free options or cider-based radlers could be a safer bet. Glad you’re feeling okay, but always better to err on the side of caution!
