Barry Farm

I was looking on Amazon and saw many Barry Farm products for ridiculously cheap. I'm definitely interested. I was wondering if anyone has bought their products before. I just want to make sure the stuff isn't infested with bugs or anything. A one pound bag of flour for $1.99? Crazy. Is this a normal price? I've seen millet flour, sorghum flour, white rice flour, tapioca flour, potato starch-even xanthan gum for all around that price. What do you think?

I have never heard or seen that brand before. I looked it up on the internet and they have a website, so you can look at the About Us page and look into the brand a little that way too. The website is just their name (barryfarm) .com

GOOD LUCK

I have ordered directly from them. This was prior to food allergies. I got some of the soup, jams and fruit butters, beans and dried vegetables. Probably some other things I can't remember. It was all very good.

I order from them all the time and I highly recommend them. They are great. I get xanthan gum, cheddar cheese powder (for mac & cheese), sweet dairy whey, and some other specialty stuff. I only had one minor problem woth them, and they took great care of it right away! They are amazing. Try them out. That is the cheapest place I have found online ever.

I order from Barry farms all the time, usually through Amazon. I've never had a problem with them. Their customer service is great and their mailing and packaging is excellent. I can't say the same about some other Amazon stores I've ordered gluten-free flour from.

You also have to realize how small 1 lb of flour is. A pound is roughly four and a half cups I believe. I think the smallest bag of wheat flour you see in the supermarket is a 5 lb bag. But then most gluten-free flours come in smaller bags.

I have never ordered from them, but I wouldn't let their cheap prices worry you. I go to an Asian market and get rice and tapioca flour for $1.50 a pound. I think places like Bob's just charge too much because they can. I am going to order from them for sure.

      Thanks for the reply.

      What you’re describing is actually very common, and unfortunately the timing of the biopsy likely explains the confusion. Yes, it is absolutely possible for the small intestine to heal enough in three months on a strict gluten-free diet to produce a normal or near-normal biopsy, especially when damage was mild to begin with. In contrast, celiac antibodies can stay elevated for many months or even years after gluten removal, so persistently high antibody levels alongside the celiac genes and clear nutrient deficiencies strongly point to celiac disease, even if you don’t feel symptoms. Many people with celiac are asymptomatic but still develop iron and vitamin deficiencies and silent intestinal damage. The lack of immediate symptoms makes it harder emotionally, but it doesn’t mean gluten isn’t harming you. Most specialists would consider this a case of celiac disease with a false-negative biopsy due to early healing rather than “something else,” and staying consistently gluten-free is what protects you long-term—even when your body doesn’t protest right away.

      Yes, I meant if you had celiac disease but went gluten-free before screening, your results would end up false-negative. As @trents mentioned, this can also happen when a total IGA test isn't done.

      I found at Disney springs and Disney they have specialist that when told about dietary restrictions they come and talk to you ,explain cross contamination measures tsken and work with you on choices. Its the one place I dont worry once I've explained I have celiac disease.  Thier gluten free options are awesome.

      Have you tried Pure Encapsulations supplements? This is a brand my doctor recommends for me. I have no issues with this brand.
