:lol::lol::lol: Oops, you didn't get that memo?

I don't eat a lot a bread, but I have found that Kinnikinnick Foods make the best loaf bread and english muffins. You can find them at www.kinnikinnick.com

If you microwave it you might be able to choke it down. My DS actually likes the stuff. I vote for the Kinnikinnick myself.

:lol: :lol: :lol: It's not the best, I agree. But my son likes it, and eats it every day. So I buy it by the case from Amazon. I think it's actually really good for grilled sandwiches. I think Kinnikinnick is the best pre-made bread.

Ah, thanks for the tip. I'll have to look into this Kinikin stuff. Perhaps I can make this into some french toast?

My daughter likes it okay but prefers the rice starch loaf. She hasn't much choice given her food allergies. She likes the bread toasted and topped with faux butter (allergic to the real stuff), cinnamon and sugar.

Just think of it as a rite of initiation. Now you are one of us. :lol:

You may want to go to that thread where people list wretched gluten-free products. I think the worst is Holgrain rice crackers. At least the animals ate the EnerG bread when I put it out. The crackers (which have the consistency and taste of styrofoam) just sat there for weeks. Animals have some standards, I guess. Those crackers didn't even biodegrade. I just buried them under the mulch. Next spring I'll look and see if they are still there in their pristine glory ...

:D:D:D When you do be sure to take a picture. I have no doubt they will be sitting there in all their glory. I tried those once and would rather have eaten the box they came in, at least that would have tasted a bit better.

Ah man, I may have to buy some of those crackers just to try them out. :lol:

I have to agree that stuff is awful. Another good one is the whole foods brand sandwich bread. Haven't actually tried making a sandwich with it but it makes pretty good toast. First time I tried it I didn't like it but it grows on you. I actually kind of look forward to having toast now.

And ridgewalker, great name for your four year old son. :D

The only thing worse than Holgrain cracker is NUworld amaranth cereal. Tastes like pure dirt!!

too true :D

what i did with mine is made it into a turkey meatball dish. actually turned out really good, after soaking the bread in milk. i've got the rest of the loaf freezing until i find another good recipe to use it in.

My aunt actually bought me a loaf of EnerG bread when I went to visit her. I opened it up and took one bite - just couldn't get any more down. My aunt commented that the bread smelled awful and was making her sick. I took it outside and crumbled it up for the birds. They wouldn't even eat it. :D

Yep, not the best bread. Before I found the grainless baker, it was the bread I tolerated....I would toast it which would disguise some of the foul strange taste.

Now I use the grainless baker sandwich bread.

Call me crazy but I don't mind the Tapioca Lite Loaf. Of course, like all of them, I toast it to make it more palletable. My son takes it in school lunches and likes it as well as any - it holds up anyway.

Haha.. I saw the name of this post and I had to check it out..and when I read 'wow this stuff is FOUL' I could not help but laugh. I was SOO excited to try my first gluten free bread (I must have been high on some left over gluten in my system) and that is what I bought. Needless to say, I thought it 'wasn't that bad...maybe' but Im pretty sure I was trying to think reallly positive. I tried it a second time, and I couldnt keep it down! Very disappointing...I have however discovered some glutino english muffins that I find to be soo delicious! They are soft and squishy and taste actually good when toasted! Im still on a search for excellent bread though...

Well - They say one person's trash is another person's treasure. ;)

I hate that bread too. But don't throw it out. You can use it as breadcrumbs or cubes to stuff the holiday turkey with. It works well for that.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.

      I was just diagnosed at 26 after accidental finding. Any simple tips for newbies? Things a non celiac would never think of? I already went through my prescriptions and identified some medications that have gluten. Is there a beginners guide? Celiac for dummies?
    • trents
      Would it be rude to ask your age?
    • pothosqueen
      Wow! Thank you @trents I  really appreciate the responses. This line of diagnosis has me questioning a lot of symptoms over the course of my life. Very validating and very much a bummer at the same time.
