Finally, Decent Waffles!

Hey there everyone,

I just made my "big" quarterly order of gluten-free flours and products from several of my favorite companies. Most of what I order is simply to bake with...i.e. flours, etc.

But, this time I splurged and purchased Kinnikinnick gluten-free waffles. Oh my goodness, they were the closest thing to eggos I've had since going gluten-free! I have bought the Vaughn's waffles several times. I'm not that fond of the flavor, and mine always seem to fall apart (literally)...it's like scooping up crumbs.

The waffles from kinninnick were crispy when toasted and had a "waffle consistancy."

Well, I just thought I'd share.

Blessings. :) -Julie

I have heard that Pamelas mix is good too :) I wanted to point out that I originally stated the wrong company...the waffles came from Kinnikinnick not B-R-Mill.

Happy Baking. -Julie

I get Lifestream Wildberry and those are pretty darn good! I was never a fan of Eggos, but since going gluten-free I was looking for some different breakfast ideas. I tried Vans and they were good. Then my healthfood store had Lifestream, so I bought those. Yummy!! Nice and crunch on the outside, but soft on the inside. Mmmm! I've got two in my toaster as I type :P !

Rosebud, I am with you! Those Lifestream waffles are pretty darn good!! I discovered them yesterday and had them for breakfast this AM. It was such a nice change from my regular cold cereal, and it felt so good to finally eat waffles again and know that I wouldn't pay for it later!!

I love both van's and lifestream waffles, though they are a bit crumbly. I haven't tried their waffles, but kinnikinnick's frozen stuff like that tends to be really good! the donuts and bagels are to DIE for! Plus they're not as loaded with fat and sugar as a lot of gluten-free baked goods are, and theyre each 260 calories. And they have 5g of protein and fiber (both the donuts and the bagels) so i don't even feel guilty :-) ok only a little guilty...lol but they're worth it

as my brother put it, if it doesnt make you sick, it's good for you :-)

I'm from CT and get kinnikinnick products at pricechopper (which has a very impressive gluten-free section) or a big health food store like whole foods. We also have a local grocery store chain here called geissler's, and my celiac friend's sister works there so they special ordered a bunch of stuff :-) so try asking at your local grocery store and see if they'll order stuff

I love the lifestream waffels. I was amazed to find them in the freezer section at Vons of all places. I like their texture and taste better than Vans. No more going to the organic store for waffles, LOL.

I had asked my local health food store about Kinnickinnic's waffles and they would see if they can get them. I've been there since then and no waffles (they are pretty good about getting things customers ask about). I've looked at Whole Foods (they have Lifestream) and nothing <_< !

I've had K's donuts and they are wonderful!! I love that they aren't as fattening as gluten donuts!

      There is a 10 year old post in this forum on Edy's and Dreyer's ice cream. The information is somewhat outdated and the thread is closed to further comment, so here is a new one. Edy's And Dreyer's Grand Vanilla Bean Ice Cream - 1.5 Quart is labeled "Gluten Free". This is a different answer than years gone by. I don't know the answer for any other flavor at this moment. On 1 May, 2026, Edy's website says: "As a general rule, the gluten in Edy's and Dreyer's® frozen dessert products is present only in the added bakery products, such as cookies, cake or brownies. We always label the eight major food allergens on our package by their common name. We recommend to always check the label for the most current information before purchasing and/or consuming a product. The exception to this rule is our Slow Churned French Silk frozen dairy dessert, which contains gluten in the natural flavors." https://www.icecream.com/us/en/brands/edys-and-dreyers/faq It seems that Edy's and Dreyer's are more celiac-friendly than they were 10 years ago. Once I found enough information to make today's buying decision, I stopped researching.

      probably not your situation @Mimiof2, but allow me to add one more to @trents list of celiac-mimics: "olmesartan-induced sprue-like enteropathy"

      My dad had an Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.  Fortunately, it was discovered during an exam.  The doctor could feel my dad's heart beating in his stomach/abdomen.  The aneurysm burst when the doctor first touched it in surgery.  Since he was already hooked up to the bypass machine, my dad survived ten more years.  Close call! Triple A's can press on the nerves in the spinal cord causing leg pain.  I'm wondering if bowing the head might have increased the pressure on an aneurysm and then the nerves.   https://gulfcoastsurgeons.com/understanding-abdominal-aortic-aneurysm-symptoms-and-causes/ Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Presenting as a Claudication https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4040638/

      You have an odd story there. To me, the mechanical trigger suggests a mechanical problem and lower leg pain is a classic sciatica symptom. The fact that the clear mechanical linkage is no longer there does not take away from the fact that it was - maybe something shifted and the simple alignment is no longer there. There's also a good chance I am wrong and it's something else entirely. @Scott Adams's mention of shingles is interesting. It seems possible but unlikely to me, but who knows. However, I am writing here to reinforce the idea of getting the shingles vaccine. Ask anyone who has ever had shingles and they will bend your ear telling you how bad it is. I watched my wife go through it and it scared the bejeebers out of me. Even if you had the chicken pox vaccine, you really want to get the shingles vaccine.

      Oddly this effect has gone now, just happened yesterday evening, the nerve pain is now back to its usual "unpredictable" random self again - but that was the only time I ever had some mechanical trigger for it, don't know why! There's no (or wasn't) actual pain in my neck - it was inside the leg, but when I looked down, now though, the leg pain just comes and goes randomly as before again.
