Just Ate A Real Sandwich! Udi Bread

I will say I didn't think I missed sandwiches. I never was a fan of them before giving up gluten.

I am in heaven. I just ate a sandwich with lunch meat and cheese on that wonderful white Udi bread. I am in love!

I've also been just grabbing a slice of it plain for a snack. Bad Bad Bad habit. This is the first gluten free bread that tastes good without heating. Maybe I'll go make some toast. Will have to be sure it's good warm. With cinnamon and sugar.

Good to know! I tried their blueberry muffins and they were to die for! I had wondered about the bread.

Thanks for posting!

I love UDI's bread. Both the white and the "whole grain" version. I have to lock it up, as my non-gluten free wife and kids would eat it all for me. ;)

I am new to this. My daughter was just diagnosed this week. What is UDI and how can I get that brand?

I am still trying to get this bread. I was told via email from Whole Foods that I could special order this. So I did last Thursday. I called to see if it was in and they had no record that I had ordered it. So I decided to call a different Whole Foods which is actually closer to me. The girl I spoke to was very nice and took my order. She called me back to say she couldn't order it. I told her about my email from corporate and she said she would check with her coordinator. I'm hoping they will do this. I really want this bread and am excited to try it. Everyone seems to love it. Thinking good thoughts!!

If Whole Foods can't (or won't) get it for you, you can order direct.

I've eaten more sandwiches this week than in my whole life. I'll be out of bread by the weekend and I doubt if the store has any more this soon. I'm ordering some tomorrow! Have yet to try anything but the white.

OMG. We SO have to get some of this! Bread is the only thing we're really having issues with switching to this diet. My son and I would actually like to switch as well, just because we are both stressing about our crumbs from our bread becoming a cross contamination issue for Raven. :( I just can't choke down the Kinnikinnick. lol

I think going to a gluten free kitchen it a good way to go. It is not like going gluten free is bad for anyone. It certainly won't hurt and you might see improvements in health and mind.

I can't get Kinnikinnick bread down either. The only other bread that I can eat is Glutino's Flax seed bread. Only if it's toasted. It's still not real bread tasting but it does ok in a pinch. But now that I've tried Udi I'll probably toss the Flax seed.

I was actually just in the store yesterday staring in the freezer at the Glutino bread wondering if it was worth spending my money on and whether Raven would actually eat it. <_< I left the store without it! lol The only one she's liked so far is the Kinnikinnick was the raisin one. Although, she seems to not mind the others if I make grill cheese with it. I hate that I haven't been able to make her any peanut butter sandwhiches though as with having CF, she supposed to be on a high protein diet and it is SO hard to get her to eat any meat! Peanut butter sandwhiches were sort of our ''back up'' bedtime snack to get some protein into her if she didn't eat her meat at supper. :(

Udi's is the best! The bread makes an wonderful grilled cheese sandwich on the skillet. My mother in law actually prefers it over her regular bread:)

I made a run to pick up more bread a few days ago. I went ahead and grabbed one of the Udi's Whole Grain Bread loaves. Also excellent. I used it to make Patty Melts and Monte Cristo Sandwiches this weekend. Hmmm, Patty Melts think that's what I'll have for lunch today using the ends of the loaf since that's all that's left.

I have also been on a sandwich binge since finding this bread. I love both kinds. My problem is that I can never find more than one loaf at a time. I asked the store if they only put out one loaf at a time, because that is all I ever see. Well, actually a lot of the time they are out completely.

Now that I know I love it, I may just have to try ordering it directly.

I finally got to try this bread and all I can say is pure heaven! I ate the first slice plain, nothing on it and not toasted. Absolutely wonderful. I don't think I will be able to eat any of the other gluten-free breads again.

I still can't get it in Arizona yet but was lucky that my husband had a business trip with a layover in Austin. My niece who lives in Austin, met him at the airport with four loaves of bread. My husband lugged that bread around with him even though his boss was with him. He took very good care of it.

Sadly, I don't think they'll last very long. I've been thinking of everything I want to make, like cinnamon toast, grilled cheese and PB&J. This bread actually has less calories and fat than the bread I was eating so not only does it taste great, it's better for me! :D

Again, I want to thank all of you for mentioning this bread.

I just wanted to chime in about Udi's bread. We're on our third case, it is absolutely wonderful. The whole grain is as good as the white, and both are as good/if not better than regular bread. The blueberry muffins "taste like gluten" according to my 6yo, they were gobbled up in one sitting for breakfast. We used up the last of our Kinnik brand bread on French toast (which was really good-the denser actually worked great for it), but sorry I don't think we'll be reordering after trying Udi's. I ordered it direct (despite high shipping costs), luckily we have an extra freezer to keep a large backstock, it's really awesome!!

For those of you out there who refuse to pay the shipping or can't find the product around here. Here is a great copycat of Against The Grain Gourmet. Check out this link, from the baking section on this forum, for a recipe that is really, really easy and tasty. Makes great rolls.

And I used the recipe from her blog.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      By Lkg5 · Posted

      Thank’s for addressing the issue of mushrooms.  I was under the impression that only wild mushrooms were gluten-free.  Have been avoiding cultivated mushrooms for years. Also, the issue of smoked food was informative.  In France last year, where there is hardly any prepared take-out food that is gluten-free, I tried smoked chicken.  Major mistake!

      results from 13 day gluten challenge - does this mean I can't have celiac?

      By catnapt · Posted

      my IGG is 815 IGA 203  but tTG-Iga is   <0.4!!!!!!!!!!!!!   oh my god- 13 days of agony and the test is negative?  I don't even know what to do next. There zero doubt in my mind that I have an issue with wheat and probably more so with gluten as symptoms are dramatically worse the more gluten a product has   I am going to write up the history of my issues for the past few years and start a food/symptom diary to bring with me to the GI doctor in March.   I googled like crazy to try to find out what other things might cause these symptoms and the only thing that truly fits besides celiac is NCGS   but I guess there are some other things I maybe should be tested for ...? like SIBO?   I will continue to eliminate any foods that cause me distress (as I have been doing for the past couple of years) and try to keep a record. Can anyone recommend an app or some form or something that would simplify this? I have a very full and busy life and taking the time to write out each symptom name in full would be tedious and time consuming- some sort of page with columns to check off would be ideal. I am not at all tech savvy so that's not something I can make myself ... I'm hoping there's some thing out there that I can just download and print out   do I give up on testing for celiac with such a low number? I am 70 yrs old I have been almost completely off gluten for the most part for about 2 yrs. I had a meal of vital wheat gluten vegan roast,  rolls and stuffing made from home baked bread and an apple pie- and had the worst pain and gas and bloating and odd rumblings in my gut etc - almost went to the ER it was so bad. I was thinking, since I'm spilling a lot of calcium in my urine, that perhaps this was a kidney stone (never had one before but there's always that first time, right?)    Saw my endo on Jan 20th and after hearing the story about the symptoms from eating that holiday meal, she suggested doing a gluten challenge. She said 2 weeks was fine- she said stopping it in the middle if symptoms got bad was fine- In the meantime I'd read that 2 weeks was not enough- called and argued with the nurse about this, but ultimately decided to stop the gluten on the 13th day and get the test done because I was in too much pain and almost suicidal and knew I could not continue.   so.............. that's where I am now I have had no bread since Sunday. I did have some rolled oats today and had some gas and bloating afterwards I did have some wheat germ in a smoothie on Tuesday and had a stomach ache later that night.   but overall I feel so much better! all the joint pain is gone! the nausea is gone. The stomach pain and gas and bloating are going away. Still a bit gassy but no more of that horrible odor. wow, that would clear a room if I was out in public!  I see a GI nurse March 4th  I hope she'll be able to help sort this out! can you think of what my next steps might be?

      Is it gluten?

      nothing has changed

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      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.
