Hi all,

I'd like to buy them at Whole Foods, but their selection is nill. So I'm looking for your favorite brands of Gluten-free Casein-free bagels, english muffins, and pizza crusts.

I've tried gluten-free products on my own and whoo! Sometimes I get a good one, and others, not so good :)

So before I go shopping online, spending a whole bunch of $$ on stuff that turns out to be in the not so good pot, I really would like recommendations from those who are in the know.

Thanks so much,

Robin

Ener-G Foods Brown Rice Sweet Potato English Muffins are my favorite. They're so thick I often slice them in 4 horizontal slices for sandwiches. They're very nutritionally balanced also, but I'm not sure whether that's a concern for you. I'd recommend you look at www.ener-g.com. They have a WIDE selection of breads, muffins, cookies, brownies, pastas, donuts, snack foods and baking supplies. Although all their products are gluten free, they also indicate in their catalog whether dairy, soy, eggs, yeast, etc. are included in their products.

I love Kinnikinnick and Foods by George products...I know they are gluten free but I am not sure about anything else they are free of.

Does Kinnikinnik ship their items frozen? I want to buy everything in sight, but it will go bad before we can eat all of it. If not, do you buy in bulk and then freeze everything?

Thank you!

Open Original Shared Link has an amazing Poppy Seed Bagel!!! They are vacuum packed and frozen. I buy them locally so I don't know about shipping.

It's about the only bread I eat, but then I've never been a bread lover! ;)

Oh, I also use their Pretzels, crushed in place of bread crumbs! They're perfect for any recipe calling for bread or cracker crumbs! :D

Why didn't I think of that!!!!

I spent almost an hour last night toasting bread, letting it dry out, running it through the food processor, then baking it to make bread crumbs.

(sigh)

Live and learn!!!

:o:rolleyes::wacko::P

I bought a freezer a few weeks ago. Boy is that paying off!

Food Processor??? :blink: Kidding! :lol:

I use my good old solid maple rolling pin and the empty cereal bag saved from gluten-free Corn Flakes, which also make great crumbs, esepcially mixed with crushed pretzels and used as a coating for chicken strips! :rolleyes:

Mmmm, hungry now! :lol:

Sterk's has been my favorite so far. Here are some links:

and for bread crumbs I just cut up little pieces of Sterk's bread and toast them in the oven.

Ordered one of everything (just about) from kinnicknincickicn - you know what I mean :)

Will try Ms. Robsen's too - I think that is funny because someone else recommended Ms Robsen's, I had it up on the web, my machine froze, had to reboot and could not remember the site. Thank you all again!

      Coeliac or not coeliac

      Hi Cristiana Yes I've had the biopsy results showing normal villi and intestinal mucosa. The repeat endoscopy (requested by the gastro doc) would be to take samples from further into the intestine than the previous endoscopy reached.

      Transglutaminase IgA is the gold-standard blood test for celiac disease. Sensitivity of over 90% and specificity of 95–99%. It rarely produces false positives. An elevated level means your immune system is reacting to gluten. Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) does not typically cause high levels of tTG-IgA. Unfortunately the protocols for a diagnosis o...

      Do Antibiotics in Babies Increase Celiac Disease Risk Later in Life? (+Video)

      In Addison’s disease, autoimmmune adrenal cortex disease adrenal glands don't make enough cortisol. At 12, it is usually caused by an autoimmune attack. It has a strong genetic link to the HLA-DQ8 gene.

      Hello @CC90 Can I just ask a question: have you actually been told that your biopsy were normal, or just that your stomach, duodenum and small intestine looked normal? The reason I ask is that when I had my endoscopy, I was told everything looked normal. My TTG score was completely through the roof at the time, greater than 100 which was then the cut...

      Transglutaminase IgA is the gold-standard blood test for celiac disease. Sensitivity of over 90% and specificity of 95–99%. It rarely produces false positives.  An elevated level means your immune system is reacting to gluten.  Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) does not typically cause high levels of tTG-IgA. Unfortunately the protocols for a diagnosis of Celiac Disease are aimed at proving you don't have it, leaving you twisting in the wind. Genetic testing and improvement on a trial gluten free diet, also avoiding milk protein, will likely show improvement in short order if it is Celiac; but will that satisfy the medical system for a diagnosis? If you do end up scheduling a repeat endoscopy, be sure to eat up to 10 grams of gluten for 8 - 12 weeks.  You want  to create maximum damage. Not a medical opinion, but my vote is yes.

      Hello @CC90 Can I just ask a question: have you actually been told that your biopsy were normal, or just that your stomach, duodenum and small intestine looked normal? The reason I ask is that when I had my endoscopy, I was told everything looked normal.  My TTG score was completely through the roof at the time, greater than 100 which was then the cut off max. for my local lab.  Yet when my biopsy results came back, I was told I was stage 3 on the Marsh scale.  I've come across the same thing with at least one other person on this forum who was told everything looked normal, but the report was not talking about the actual biopsy samples, which had to be looked at through a microscope and came back abnormal.

      My bad. I should have reread your first post as for some reason I was thinking your TTG was within normal range. While we are talking about celiac antibody blood work, you might not realize that there is not yet an industry standard rating scale in use for those blood tests so just having a raw number with out the reference scale can be less than helpful, especially when the test results are marginal. But a result of 87.4 is probably out of the normal range and into the positive range for any lab's scale. But back to the question of why your endoscopy/biopsy didn't show damage despite significantly positive TTG. Because they took the trouble to take seven samples, it is not likely they missed damage because of it being patchy. The other possibility is that there hasn't been time for the damage to show up. How long have you been experiencing the symptoms you describe in your first post? Having said all that, there are other medical conditions that can cause elevated TTG-IGA values and sometimes they are transient issues. I think it would be wise to ask for another TTG-IGA before the repeat endoscopy to see if it is still high.  Knitty kitty's suggestion of getting genetic testing done is also something to think about. About 35% of the general population will have one or both genes that are markers for the potential to develop active celiac disease but only about 1% of the population actually develop celiac disease. So, having a celiac potential gene cannot be used to definitively diagnose celiac disease but it can be realistically used to rule it out if you don't have either of the genes. If your symptoms persist, and all testing is complete and the follow-up endoscopy/biopsy still shows no damage, you should consider trialing a gluten free diet for a few months to see if symptoms improve. If not celiac disease, you could have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).
