Has anyone seen the new hemp tortillas at whole foods?

They are blue and say wheat free gluten free. I felt them and they feel

soft. I wonder if they are any good.

I don't know if these are the same or not. They didn't come from Whole Foods. The ones I bought are green. Daughter loved them!

Are these the ones from French Meadow Bakery? I hope my Whole Foods starts carrying them. I have a freezer full of them which I ordered directly.

Obviously, I like them. I've heard others say they like these too. I did run across one person who didn't like them & DID like EnerG bread -- so tastes can differ :lol:

I like the corn shells but they dont fold worth a darn. Is there any thing out there that is like the flour ones I use to eat? You know big, soft, and foldable.

I don't know if they are like what you used to eat, but there are gluten-free flour tortillas out there. Trader Joes has one, but it is apparently only sold on the west coast. Food for Life has one -- of two packages I've tried (only comes frozen at my local store), one had dry crumbly edges and the other seems to be fine. Gluten Free Pantry sells teff tortillas -- OK flavor, but seemed a little stiff.

In terms of flexibility, the hemp ones seem best. (I use them as my sub for injera when I make Ethiopean -- the teff tortillas just fell apart.) But their flavor is not like a regular flour tortilla. I guess I will be going with the Food for Life tortillas for wraps, etc., at least until I get the gumption to try to make my own.

I've had them - they're an aquired taste and, in my opinion, work far better with savory food rather than sweet, but I like them. :)

I really like these. What do you all put in them though? So far all I've tried is smoked turkey with lettuce and carrots. It was good but the flavor of the tortillas, with the nutmeg and cayenne, is so distinctive that I'm not sure what else would be good in them. Maybe veggies and hummus? Hmmm I'll have to try that next....

I haven't seen these but I have heard great things about the new gluten free Teff Tortillas from La Tortilla Factory. I might take a walk to a health food store during lunch tomorrow to pick them up and give them a try.

jkm,

Those look promising. We eat a lot of soft tacos (or fajitas), and I'm not entirely satisfied with only corn.

best regards, lm

Usually veggies & hummus (or refried beans, etc.) -- then again, I eat vegan, so this is what I always put in wraps.

I've also used these tortillas when I make Ethiopean food. I haven't heard of anyone being successful in making injera at home and I haven't found a wheat-free version available online. I've tried teff tortillas, but they didn't seen to have either the flexibility, texture, or flavor that worked well with the food.

      Alcohol

      By Suze046 · Posted

      Hey! I’m recently gluten free and yes I really struggle with alcohol now. I haven’t really drank in 2 months as it just made me feel awful the next day in terms of stomach ache mainly. I’ve had a couple of glasses of white wine here and there (mainly low sulphate) but every time it gives me a gut ache. I think it’s because but guy is so damaged from my journey to discovering my gluten intolerance and hopefully this will improve but honestly I’m just not bothered about having a drink now. I can’t even touch Prosecco or champagne I think the bubbles really upset me!

      Work friends & food

      I just wanted to share my support for you. Rant away. We all know that, and have experiences like that at some point. I am sorry for that very unpleasant, and emotionally isolating reminder of your medical condition. Which always is exacerbated by the hunger. I will admit many of my family friends, and coworkers found it easier to exclude me than to accommodate me. I also have to be very strict with cross contamination so in hindsight they did me a favor.  The sting however can often still be unearthed when I read experiences like yours.  I am sorry you had that occur. I hope you, and the coworkers can find the easy more accommodating experiences again after this unfortunate incident. Best wishes.

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      By Awol cast iron stomach · Posted

      "...hemorrhoids, constipation and diarrhea" . Heard of indeed. Experienced too. In hindsight, I can remember from age 2 having, and trying to convey my issues. I went 38 years misdiagnosed. So yes one can have these issues. I did have to go back on gluten for a gluten challenge. I failed that challenge and 6 days in they give me permission to stop, and I proceed with my scopes as scheduled. Post those 6 days I had gained 13 intolerances. I had to remove many foods, and reintroduce them back in. Nine years later I have two that remain gluten, and corn. I found it helpful to follow a whole foods diet. I also found autoimmune (AIP) protocol diet/recipes, and Paleo diet/recipes helpful. I still enjoy many of those homemade version recipes. I still continue to make my own salad dressings even if I can find a gluten-free store bought version. Fresh taste best to this palate now.  I did give up many grains I was off many and reverted to coconut flour and almond flour as work arounds .  I still remember the first time my gut experienced the reintroduction of quinoa. It wasn't sure if it wanted to flare or not. In 30 minutes it reported back ok this will pass. Many foods were removed post gluten challenge for me for 2 years and 4 months. At the 2 year 4 month mark is when my body said ok let's eat again, but don't ever feed me gluten again! I wish you the best.

      if you have already learned that Gluten is the cause of your symptoms, of course there is no need to add it back into your diet— your decision could save you a lot of needless suffering. One thing to consider is that if you do have celiac disease, your first- degree relatives may also need to get screened for it, because, like diabetes the disease is genetic, although many of its triggers seem to be environmental factors. You may want to consider getting a genetic test for celiac disease, so you can at least warn your relatives if it turns out that you do carry a celiac gene.
