Safe Brand Of Brown Rice Flour


Yenni

Recommended Posts

I am very sensitive when it comes to cross contamination. I don't trust Bob's Mill and I wanna find a Brown Rice Flour that is safe. Do you have a brand that you use that you trust and can recommend?

Thanks!

Well I use Bobs but how about Authentic Foods? They are pretty pricey though.

Why don't you trust Bob's Red Mill brand? Have people had problems with their gluten-free flours? We've been using Bob's brown rice, white rice, tapioca, potato, amaranth, sorghum and teff flours.

I thought it would be safe because they test the product to verify that it is gluten-free. Unfortunately, I don't seem to have any noticeable reactions to gluten so I wouldn't know if I'm being glutened or not.

There are some people who have reacted to it.

Even though I am extremely sensitive (rarely eat out bc I get so sick), I have used Bob's Red Mill for the past year or so and absolutely love it. I use many of their products and have not reacted. I personally trust them.

I use Ener-g flours--rice flours and potato starch. Never a problem--

bob's red mill makes their gluten free products in a dedicated facility----so there really should not be a problem with cross contamination.

I haven't had any problems with Arrowhead Mills flours, though I do use Bob's Red Mill flours as well, and so far no problems there either.

I use Lundberg Farms brown rice flour. I buy it in 25 lb sacks from my health food store and get a discount.

I use Kinnikinnick's flours. They are made in a gluten free facility and I've had much better success with them than most other flours. For some reason my baked goods tend to turn out better if I'm using them rather than other brands. Perhaps it has something to do with the texture or something. I don't know. Anyway, you can buy them online at www.kinnikinnick.com or other gluten free websites that sell Kinnikinnick. Many of their items are also dairy free. Each item on the website tells you what it's free of (ie: corn, soy, casein, gluten free). Perhaps you will be able to find something else that your system can tolerate, though I think they use potato starch in most of their baked goods. I might be wrong. Worth checking into if you're really limited.

Thank you everyone for your replies. I have tried some Bob's Mills stuff and somethimes it's been fine but a few times I felt sick after. Not a lot, so I am not sure. I saw other people saying that they reacted to them on here so I thought I'd try something else.

I'll check all of your suggestions. Thanks again.

      Azure Standard (https://www.azurestandard.com/) is one of my gluten-free vendors. I've purchased nuts, "grains", flours, and many other products there. If you are not familiar with Azure, you have to set up an account (no cost) and get your purchases either via shipping (expensive) or "drop" (free if you buy a reasonable minimum). Search their website for a drop location in your area. Each drop location has a local volunteer(?) coordinator who coordinates with the local customers. I go to a drop 4-5 miles from my home that delivers every 2 weeks. We seem to range from 8-18 customers at a given delivery. The downside of the drop is that you have to be there when they say. They give you a few days notice of the precise time, though, and they are punctual. Their pricing relative to other vendors for various products ranges from best price to overpriced, so you have to shop and compare. Quality is mostly good but once in a while you get a dud - however they've been very responsive to giving me a credit on the few occasions when I've complained. In my opinion, they are not as transparent about gluten as they could be. Some products are labeled "gluten free" and so far I trust that. Many products are labeled "Azure Market products are re-packaged by Azure for your convenience in a facility that meets Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) standards, including an approved allergen control program." I've corresponded with them over this and they all but say this means gluten free. I've come to trust this, with a little nervousness, but I wish they would be more explicit. They also sell a lot of gluten-containing products. Frankly, I think they are overlooking a business opportunity to become a trusted source for the gluten-free community by not being more clear about gluten. Among Azure products I've purchased are "Walnuts, Baker's Pieces, Raw", "Cashews, Raw, Large White Pieces, Organic" and "Missouri Northern Pecan Grower Pecans Fancy Native, Raw, Halves". The walnuts and cashews were very good and the pecans were fabulous. For almonds, I've been buying Blue Diamond unsalted when they go on sale (mostly from Safeway). The salted ones are probably fine too but the flavored ones I avoid now that I am gluten-free. I also buy products including nuts from CostCo (cashews, shelled pistachios). Their nuts usually contain a "made in a facility that processes wheat" statement, which is scary. I've contacted customer service about various Kirkland products and they will usually give you a response <<for a specific lot>> whether it really was made in a wheat facility (sometimes yes sometimes no). For the "Kirkland Signature Fancy Whole Cashews, Unsalted, 40 oz" and "Kirkland Signature Shelled Pistachios, Roasted & Salted, 1.5 lbs", I got a "safe" answer and I ate them. I got an "unsafe" answer once for "Kirkland Signature Fancy Whole Cashews with Sea Salt, 2.5 lbs" and "Kirkland Signature Dry Roasted Macadamia Nuts, Salted, 1.5 lbs" and I don't look at these anymore. Again, these answers were given for specific lots only. They will accept an unopened return for cash if you find out you don't want it. Costco also sells "Kirkland Signature Super Extra-Large Peanuts, 2.5 lbs" that are labeled gluten free. My celiac kid eats them all the time. I pretty much only eat food that I prepare myself from scratch. My celiac symptoms are not that overt, so I can't say for certain I could identify a glutening. However, my antibody levels dropped 25 fold (into normal range) since my dx earlier this year. Hope this helps.

      Doterra literally has saved my life hands down.Nateral supplements that really are pure grade and does work organically with ones body. I had to stop all my nateral supplements to be a good puppet for medical so I can get the financial help that my body won't allow me to do more days than not these days, every day with menopause.....Not feeling well.Had to switch " medical team" because I was told I wasn't celiac though I am gluten-free since 1994! I am also positive HLA-DQ2. I think doctors down play it because on quest lab work it states " However 39% of the U.S  general population carry these HLA-DQ variants, as a consequence, the presence of HLA-DQ2 or  DQ8 or both variants is not perse diagnostic of celiac disease". Hintz the down playing of celiac disease......This needs to change because doctors seem to down playe it because when I showed the past 2nd and 3rd  doctors that I waisted my time on this year showed my that line and absolutely down played it.4th pcp this year.I live in Patterson California and would love for a few of us to go to mayors office and make this disease heard

      Back home after the scope.  Dr said as soon as he got in there it was clear signs of celiacs.  Must be a decent amount of damage.  I don’t remember the post procedure conversation as the anesthesia was still wearing off but that’s what my wife says anyway.  Still the biopsy results to come back but pretty definitive and now I get to learn to live gluten free

      There are several blogs where people test different beers using commercially available gluten testing kits. Guinness definitely tests positive for gluten. Something to be mindful of is that in some regions, foodstuffs containing less than 20 ppm gluten can be sold as 'gluten free'. However, due to the volume involved, a UK pint of beer at 19 ppm would contain more gluten than the generally accepted as safe daily limit of 10 mg. I have seen gluten-free beers testing at between "undetectable" and 5-10 ppm. I have also seen a report of a positive home test on Daura Damm, which is sold as gluten-free beer - the manufacturer did not respond to the tester's query.
