New Fabric

Opinions anyone? Are they soft? Are they durable? Do they only come in blah institutional colors (drab green, greyish blue, greenish yellow?)

Has anyone seen bamboo fabric yet in clothing?

Pros and cons?

This stuff IMHO is great. It is soft and comfy. I haven't had any products long enough to know how well they hold up but for me this fiber is a winner for sheets and t-shirts.

I have noticed that sheets and blankets made with a cotton/bamboo blend are appearing everywhere all of a sudden.

I know nothing about them, but would love to hear.

I wondered if they would be soft too :lol:

I have a pair of mauve colored pillowcases made from bamboo. They are very soft. I think I've had them for over a year now. Wendy

I have some made from Birch that are the softest most wonderful sheets I've ever had!

What is the direction for laundering them? regular hot wash and cotton setting for dryer? Or do they have to be air dryed or partially dryed? I would imagine they are delicate setting (?)

Where are Birch sheets sold?

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
