Ener G Light Tapioca Bread

I didn't like the regular tapioca bread, it felt like I had a brick in my stomach but the new "light" bread is really good! It has only 7 grams of carbs per slice and it tastes light but substantial. It's probably the best gluten free bread I've had so far.

Didn't know if anyone had mentioned it on here yet or not. Thought I'd share another good gluten free product!

I agree; this is the first bread I have tried that I considered edible. I either make a reuben or other grilled sandwich with it or toast it in a dry skillet first.

Where can you get it and how many calories per slice?

I got it at Akins.

It has 45 calories, 1.5 fat gram, 7 carb, 1 dietary fiber and 0 protein per slice.

I haven't tried dry toasting it but tomorrow I'm going to put 1 slice under some slow-cooked bbq pulled pork and see how that tastes.

Yes, the light tapioca is good. Reminds me of "real" white bread. But I like EnerG light brown rice bread even more. Tastes more like "real" wheat bread. I think even the light tapioca has a tinge of strange taste and smell to it like the other tapioca loaf, but I don't find this at all with the brown rice. And I think the brown rice is probably healthier too (?)and less dry. The biggest problem I have had with the light varieties is that sometimes whatever lightening agent they use causes too much air in the loaf and you get some fairly big holes in the slices. They aren't kidding when they say they are light! :lol: But I'd never go back to the "brick" varieties!

thank you for the information on the brown rice bread. I haven't tried it. Yeah, the light tapioca does have an odd after-taste. It is SO much better than the brick bread though :)

I noticed I had a lot of big holes in it. I tried to toast and butter some one morning and I think I got butter on the crust and a spot here or there where there was actual substance inside the crust!! At least it's something. I miss toast and tea on a cold morning.

I'm going to look for the brown rice bread tomorrow.

thanks again!

Ann

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .

      Thanks. Since the back and forth and promises of review and general stalling went on for more than six months, the credit company will no longer investigate. They have a cutoff of maybe six months.

      Is this the same restaurant? https://www.facebook.com/TheHappyTartFallsChurch/ Is it too late to take this up with your credit card company? Normally you have a few months to do a chargeback with them. It seems very odd that they are taking this approach with someone who is likely to be a regular customer--not a good business-minded way of handling things!

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal. This article may be helpful: The most common nutrient deficiencies associated with celiac disease that may lead to testing for the condition include iron, vitamin D, folate (vitamin B9), vitamin B12, calcium, zinc, and magnesium.  Unfortunately many doctors, including my own doctor at the time, don't do extensive follow up testing for a broad range of nutrient deficiencies, nor recommend that those just diagnosed with celiac disease take a broad spectrum vitamin/mineral supplement, which would greatly benefit most, if not all, newly diagnosed celiacs. Because of this it took me decades to overcome a few long-standing issues I had that were associated with gluten ataxia, for example numbness and tingling in my feet, and muscle knots--especially in my shoulders an neck. Only long term extensive supplementation has helped me to resolve these issues.

      Welcome to the forum. Is the nausea associated with eating certain foods, or anything else in particular?  Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months.
