Best Websites To Purchase Food That's Hard To Find In Stores

What are your favorite websites to purchase hard to find food brands/items? Also, I want to try some of Schar's products. I hear they are awesome. Where can I buy them retail? Online for decent prices?

This one is good! But honestly I have not found one website where I can get all that I need. I always wind up ordering from several.

One of the problems I am encountering (on sites such as Am a zon dot com ) is that they

now require that you buy in "bulk". You have to purchase a "case" of whatever

it is that you want. You can't just buy one or two. I can't do that. This is

too much money at one time and too much product that will get stale before it

all gets used and I have no where to stow it.

I would never buy Schar, they use(d) CODEX standard "gluten-free" wheat starch in many of their products (or certainly did last time I checked).

So far as I'm concerned any company making gluten-free products knowingly containing gluten @<200ppm are simply not to be trusted.

Schar cookies taste like chalk. The bread is okay, but not exceptional.

In terms of ordering products, I think ordering directly from the company website is best, if possible. It's usually cheaper that way, but if you can't find what you want, glutenfreemall.com (this website) is good too.

I have had luck at gluten free trading company- they have a dot com shopping site. Just do a search for it, it should come up right away- they are a retail store based in Milwaukee WI. Their shipping rates are reasonable and they have a lot of stock. Good luck!

Bought some Schar's pasta locally here in NJ. There is no wheat starch in either type of pasta. In reviewing many products on the company's website, they specifically state that no wheat starch is used.

Thanks for all the tips..a friend of mine's mother just left for italy and gave me all of her schar products that she had before she left because she spends half the year in italy and the items would go bad..I have yet to find these items on websites..I think it is only sold in Italy and not imported. It is the duo lunch rolls and panini burger buns.

Schar products are sold in a lot of places. You can get them online at www.allergygrocer.com

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.

      Has anyone experimenced enlarged lymph nodes with celiac? Both in the neck and groin area. Imaging of both areas have said that lymph nodes are reactive in nature. However, they have been present for months and just wondering how long this may take to go down. Been gluten-free for about two months. Blood counts are normal.

      Hmm interesting I just assumed that any “IGA” tests including the DPG iga would be negative in a person who is IGA deficient but maybe that is not the case for the DPG test.

      If you were just diagnosed I can say that if you go 100% gluten-free should should see dramatic improvement of your symptoms over the next few months, but the hard part is to stay gluten-free. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
