Grocery Depression Be Gone!

Hey y'all, what are the yummy gluten free products I can find at Whole Foods?

I'm going to try this whole "shopping" thing again for the first time since my one post- hospital meltdown.

Words of encouragement appreciated much!

Stop at the front desk and ask them for their list.

My faves:

Van's Gluten Free Flax Waffles (I know some have problems with Van's but I never have)

Tinkyada Brown Rice Pasta

365 Rice Sesame Crackers

Health Valley Rice Crunchems and Corn Crunchems

Milk

Cheese (check)

Thai Kitchen Soups (check, not all are gluten free).

Of course...there are SOOO many foods that are naturally gluten free...so I stick to those A LOT.

I have had to cut milk, casein, acidic fruits, and fatty foods as well. Especially with the fatty and sugary foods, I get very ill.

My Doc says it is from the damage done, and will gradually get better. Until then, I have to be good. Or ninja my meals past my intestines and stomach. Oooohh... IV ice cream!

You can make a great "chex" mix with healthy valley rice and corn crunch ems!!!!! Good Luck with shopping. I don't have a whole foods in my area! But at our food co-op they have gluten-free lists at customer service!!!!

Open Original Shared Link

select your store, and then select gluten free.

Depending on your local stores, you might be surprised to find what your regular grocery store carries. I only go to WF to supplement with "special treats." I, of course, now can't live without those treats, but still . I did it for two years before I moved to a place with a WF. (I swear, we didn't move just for the WF. Really.)

Open Original Shared Link is info on their products that WF makes themselves in a gluten-free facility.

If there was one special product to recommend, it would be their pizza crusts. So yummy, so quick and easy. So nice to have on hand...we ALWAYS have them in our freezer. We actually cut them in half, because sometimes I just need a little bit....this way I don't have to use a whole crust...I can just pull out a "half" from the freezer.

Also like their biscuits, and apple pie.

I was actually amazed today while shopping at my "local" store, I found "bob's red mill" stuff on their shelves, normally I just had avoided that aisle, who needs flour anyways right, well DUH! there it was plain as day, not any I had tried as yet, but will see.
