Udi Bread- No More Chiseling

My new favorite bread is Udi. I've gotten it at Whole Foods and at Sprout's. It does come in the frozen section, but all you do is thaw the entire loaf and LEAVE IT OUT on the counter all week to eat whenever you want!

NO MORE CHISELING!!!!

Because it's not frozen and it's like "normal" bread---I take it with me EVERYWHERE. To work. On vacation, I brought it (it thawed on the way there) and brought a piece with me to every restaurant for 6 days!

The texture is good-soft and springy, it has lots of air holes, more like glutenated bread.

It is not chalky in the least.

I can just make a sandwich and take it along without worrying about it becoming hard or inedible.

After being gluten-free for four years, this is a dream come true.

Udi's is the best. I am lucky to live in Colorado where Udi's was born and "bread" and we even have Udi's cafes here. I got a gluten-free sandwich (I don't have to eat gluten-free, my daughter does) and I had to double check that it was actually made on gluten-free bread it was THAT good. The muffins are good, too, although I still prefer the Kinnickinnick pizza crusts.

Here in north Dallas, they sell the Udi bread in the bakery department of Whole Foods. I am in love with the bagels. I use them for burger buns, grilled chicken sandwiches, even had leftover grilled salmon on them. I also buy the bread, freeze it on a cookie sheet and then put it into a ziplock so I can take out one or two slices at a time. I haven't tried their sweets but their lemon muffins look great.

I would love to try Udi's, nothing but good stuff I hear from all of you...*sigh* my whole foods doesn't carry it nor will they according to the rep I spoke too. I am in Vegas, so I don't know why they won't carry it, but I am sad. :( Maybe one day.

You can mail order Udi's bread from this site! Your 'someday' may be sooner than you think. :)

I know, but it's so expensive. :(

I might break down one day and order it.

      Gluten exposure when trying to conceive

      By trents · Posted

      My reaction to a gluten bolus exposure is similar to yours, with 2-3 hours of severe abdominal cramps and intractable emesis followed by several hours of diarrhea. I don't necessarily equate that one large exposure to gluten with significant intestinal lining damage, however. I think it's just a violent reaction to a what the body perceives to be a somewhat toxic substance that I am no longer tolerant of because I have quit exposing myself to it regularly. It's just the body purging itself of it rather than an expression of significant damage. Before diagnosis, when I was consuming gluten daily, I had little to no GI distress. I was, for the most part, a "silent celiac". The damage to my small bowel lining didn't happen all at once but was slow and insidious, accumulating over a period of years. The last time I got a big shot of gluten was about three years ago when I got my wife's wheat biscuits mixed up with my gluten-free ones. There was this acute reaction after about two hours of ingestion as I described above. I felt washed out for a few days and fully recovered within a week or so.  Now, I'm a 74-year-old male. So, I'm not worried about being pregnant. And I don't want to contradict your physicians advice. But I just don't think you have done significant damage to your small bowel lining by one episode of significant gluten ingestion. I just don't think it works that way.

      Gluten exposure when trying to conceive

      By Skydawg · Posted

      Wondering about some thoughts on how long to wait to try to get pregnant after a gluten exposure?  I have been diagnosed for 10 years and have followed the diet strictly. I have been cross contaminated before, but have never had a full on gluten exposure. I went to a restaurant recently, and the waiter messed up and gave me regular bread and told me it was gluten free. 2 hours later I was throwing up for the whole evening. I have never had that kind of reaction before as I have never had such a big exposure. My husband and I were planning to start trying to get pregnant this month. My dr did blood work to check for electrolytes and white blood cells, but did not do a full nutritional panel. Most of my GI symptoms have resolved in the past 2 weeks, but I am definitely still dealing with brain fog, fatigue and headaches. My dr has recommended I wait 3 months before I start to try to get pregnant.   I have read else where about how long it can take for the intestine to fully heal, and the impacts gluten exposure can have on pregnancy. I guess I am really wondering if anyone has had a similar experience? How long does it take to heal after 1 exposure like that, after following the diet so well for 10 years? Is 3 months an okay amount of time to wait? Is there anything I can do in the meantime to reduce my symptoms?

      Gluten Free Cannabis Edibles

      By ShadowLoom · Posted

      I’ve used tinctures and made my own edibles with gluten-free ingredients to stay safe. Dispensary staff don’t always know about gluten, so I double-check labels or just make my own.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It's great to hear that there are some good doctors out there, and this is an example of why having a formal diagnosis can definitely be helpful.

      Damage after 13 years gluten free

      By RMJ · Posted

      Update: I have a wonderful new gastroenterologist. She wants to be sure there’s nothing more serious, like refractory celiac, going on. She ordered various tests including some micronutrient tests that no one has ever ordered before.  I’m deficient in folate and zinc and starting supplements for both. I’m so glad I decided to go to a new GI!
