Trader Joe'S gluten-free French Rolls

So, I'm mourning the loss of my beloved Trader Joe's gluten-free French Rolls. When I discovered them nearly a year ago, I was skeptical, but upon tasting (more like devouring) one, I drove the 45 minutes back up to the store and bought the last three packages they had on their shelves. I made the trek up to the store weekly for the sole purpose of buying those delicous rolls, only to find out several months ago that they are no longer making them, but this should just be a temporary glitch until they are able to find another baker/distributor/whatever. So, I'm here in Limbo calling my local store once a week to hear of any news about the matter and I get the same story over and over- they have no idea when they will be getting any more of these delicious baked rolls in any of there stores any time soon. So, again, if anyone has heard anything to the contrary on this matter, PLEASE LET ME KNOW ASAP!! As this is the only bread I have had and actually enjoyed AND can eat because of my severely limited fat intake (due to pancreatitis). I have to have faith that somewhere out there, someone knows what is going on and can get my hands on these delicious things again! Any great is GREATLY appreciated and I thank y'all in advance.

Have you tried Gillian's French Bread Rolls? They come in the same size and shape as TJ's but are lighter since they use rice and not sorghum flour like TJ's. A little crumbly as a result but light and nice flavor.

The TJ's here in Charlotte said it is a problem in their Atlanta facility, they are trying to get some other site to make both our rolls and our english muffins!

Thanks so much! Where do you find Gilliam's French Bread Rolls? And do you happen to know the fat content of them? Thanks in advance!

Here's some info. Open Original Shared Link

We can get them at Whole Foods and a large grocery that has many sections, including a large gluten-free section. Look around, you never know where you'll find things. Most places I've seen them in keep them frozen.

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
