Kinnikinnick Plain Bagels

I have been eating these bagels for 2+ years. Back in the winter of 2007, they became hard to find. I found out that they were having production issues and opening a new plant. 3-4 months later I found the bagels again and now they taste different and it is not a good different. I know they are the "new" ones b/c there is a sticker over the old nutrition info on the bag. Not only are they higher in calorie, they really don't taste good. Anyone else have this issue? I won't continue to buy these at $5/pack for 4 bagels if this is a permanent thing. I guess I will have to try to make bagels out of the Pamela's bread mix. I have been meaning to do this for a while anyway.

I tried those bagels last year before I knew what I was reacting to (tapioca flour/starch) but I did not care for them, the taste.

I made my own bagels last week from the book The Gluten-Free Kitchen by Roben Ryberg. They were easy to make and tasted good/okay. I am hoping they taste even better the next time I make them, thinking about trying a flavor instead of just plain.

I never had the old kinnikinnick bagels, but I have had the new ones and Joan's Great Bakes (Open Original Shared Link) are the most delicious bagels (or any bread product for that matter) gluten-free item I've tried. The nutritionals aren't posted online but they are similar to the Kinnikinnick bagels. I think it's close to 270 cal and 4g fat per good sized bagel.

Their chocolate dipped doughnuts used to be fantastic last year, but I tried them again this spring and they were god awful.

Totally a shame. I definitely had hope for that company, and if you've noticed they actually switched to more expensive packaging and stuff thinking they would make it. But with their product tasting the way it is now, I don't think they'll do so hot.

Thanks for the warnings on the donuts. They are $7+ for a package here.

What?! I was mad that I wasted $5 something on them.

I wonder if they are jacking up prices to deal with losing a bunch of fans.

Again I have only tried the donuts recently (not the older recipe) and liked them. Maybe if I tried the older ones I wouldn't by comparison. I agree they are super pricy. My favorite donuts are the maple and the cinnamon sugar.

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.

      That sounds so very likely in my case! I will absolutely ask my doctor on my next bone check coming up in March... Thanks a lot!

      Calcium levels as measured in the blood can be quite deceiving as the body will rob calcium from the bones to meet demands for it by other bodily functions. Also, supplementing with calcium can be counterproductive as it tends to raise gut pH and decrease absorption. More often than not, the problem is poor absorption to begin with rather than deficiency of intake amounts in the diet. Calcium needs an acidic environment to be absorbed. This is why so many people on PPIs develop osteoporosis. The PPIs raise gut pH. And some people have high gut PH for other reasons. Low pH equates to a more acidic environment whereas high pH equates to a more basic (less acidic) environment.

      Kind thanks for all this valuable information! Since my Folate was/is low and also my Calcium, there IS a chance I am low in B vitamins... My doctor only measured the first two, oh and Zinc as I has twisted her arm and guess what, that was mega low too. So who knows, until I get myself tested properly, what else I am deficient in... I did a hair mineral test recently and it said to avoid All sources of Calcium. But this is confusing for me as my Ca is so low and I have osteoporosis because of this. It is my Adjusted Ca that is on the higher side and shouldn't be. So am not sure why the mineral test showed high Ca (well, it was medium in the test but relative to my lowish Magnesium, also via hair sample, it was high I was told). But anyway, thanks again for the VitB download, I will look into this most certainly!

      Allergy medication: cetirizine by the HealthA2Z is it gluten free?

      By ElisaAllergiesgluten · Posted

      Hello good afternoon, I was wondering if anyone has ever brought their anti-allergy pills? I have been wanting to use their Cetirizine HCI 10mg. They are called HealthA2Z and distributed by Allegiant Health.I’m also Asthmatic and these allergies are terrible for me but I also want to be sure they don’t have any sort of gluten compound.    I have tried calling them but to no avail. Has anyone ever used them? If so, did you had any problems or no problems at all?    thank you
