Against The Grain's Baguettes


Mountaineer Josh

Recommended Posts

Mountaineer Josh Apprentice

I was shopping at Wegmans recently and picked up some baguettes for $7.99. At first, I thought, "why am I wasting $7.99 on gluten free bread that will lead to yet more disappointment." Well, I stand corrected. Wow, just wow! These baguettes were by far the closest thing I've had to real, flaky, chewy bread since my diagnosis. I highly recommend. I was so excited, I must have eaten three sandwiches for dinner that night. The ingredients include: tapioca flour, mozzarella cheese, eggs, water. Nothing fancy, but whatever ever they are doing, it's great. I forgot to mention the big, chewy air pockets like real bread!

Has anyone else had this product?

I found them at Wegman's and had the same reaction as you did - I can't believe how wonderful they are. Same with the bagels. Absolutely wonderful!

Against the Grain also makes bagels and rolls and can be found in the freezer case. They remind me of croissants in texture. I have used only that brand of rolls since I found them at my local health food store about a year ago. They are also available at Whole Foods Markets in the New England area.

I've noticed recently that the rolls I have been buying do not have the huge air pockets, but are rather fluffy and bread like. Do you think they are using Expandex in their products?

Anyone know if Whole Foods or TJ's carries this? I have tried so many different kinds of breads and don't really like any of them. I miss good bread!

AtG is wonderful. No expandex. They are truly the best available for rolls... To get them in your area ask your favorite store to carry this line. They do not ship themselves , only through United Natural Foods Distributors.They have just been approved for Ohio, Ky , Indiana & I think Il. This bun will hold up to a juciy burger, sloppy joes, ham bb'q & much more.

The baguette makes great french toast, garlic bread, we like Italian deli meats, cheeses & put under the broiler... yum.

Also the newest roll is the pumpernickel , oh my extremely delic.

They will stay in the freezer for a year (if you can keep them that long) . Just bring to room temp. & your are ready to dig in... Be sure not to over heat them in the micro, just a few seconds to take the chill off & thaw.......

You can make reubens also by adding some caraway seeds to your other ingredients.....

I used to drive four hours just to buy these gems.....

ENJOY!!!!!

That is great to know. I just saw them for the first time but chickened out on buying them. I guess I will have to make a trip back to buy them.

They now carry them at Lilit Cafe in Bethesda, MD, for anyone in the Maryland/DC area.

They are about $2 more at Lilit as compared to Wegman's, FYI.

Here is a great tip: Against the grain products are basically chebe bread mix. Google it or better yet find it on Amazon for 17.00- you'll receive 8 packages of this stuff. 1 mix will feed a family for one night or one person for several days.

I tried posting the link, but the mod wouldn't let me.

Good luck

All they're doing is using mozz. instead of the suggested cheddar. This stuff is much cheaper and totally AWESOME.

I don't think they are like Chebe....... our taste must be different. I think they have more of a popover taste.

The buns taste even better than gluten buns. I like the baguettes also. The only thing is there are 15 grams of fat in each bun and the baquettes are high also. I am guessing it is because of the mozzarella cheese. When I tried the buns the first time I ate three without stopping lol, they were so good. Now I watch and limit when I eat them but they are so tempting! BTW, mine were available at a store called Bunn's on Street Road in Feasterville, PA.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.

      I had no idea there is a "Louisville" in Colorado!😉 I thought it was a typo because I always think of the Kentucky city--but good luck!
