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.

      Potential celiac need advice

      By itsdunerie · Posted

      Dang......did it again and yeah I should admit I am 63 with clumsy phone thumbs. I started feeling better quickly and a doctor a year later said I had to eat  poison (gluten) every day for a month so he could formally diagnose me and NO FREAKING WAY. I couldn't then and can't imagine putting my body through that crap (no pun intended) on purpose ever again.  Why ingest poison for a month to have some doctor say Hey, All you Have To Do Is Never Eat poison Again..

      15 years ago my best friend 'diagnosed' me as Celiac. Her little nephew had been formally diagnosed and her observations of me dealing with brain fog, stomach problems and other stuff had her convincing me to try going gluten free. Oh my heavens, within 3 days, no lie, I felt human again. Took me about a y

      It seems like you have two choices--do a proper gluten challenge and get re-tested, or just go gluten-free because you already know that it is gluten that is causing your symptoms. In order to screen someone for celiac disease they need to be eating gluten daily, a lot of it--they usually recommend at least 2 slices of wheat bread daily for 6-8 weeks before a blood screening, and at least 2 weeks before an endoscopy (a colonoscopy is no used to diagnose celiac disease). Normally the blood panel is your first step, and if you have ANY positive results there for celiac disease the next step would be to take biopsies of your villi via an endoscopy given by a gastroenterologist.  More info on the blood tests and the gluten challenge beforehand is below: The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:   Not to discourage you from a formal diagnosis, but once you are diagnosed it may lead to higher life and medical insurance rates (things will be changing quickly in the USA with the ACA starting in 2026), as well as the need to disclose it on job applications. While I do think it's best to know for sure--especially because all of your first degree relatives should also get screened for it--I also want to disclose some negative possibilities around a formal diagnosis that you may want to also consider.

      Yes.  Now, if you hit your finger with a hammer once, wouldn't you do your best not to do it again?  You have identified a direct connection between gluten and pain.  Gluten is your hammer.  Now you have to decide if you need a medical diagnosis.  Some countries have aid benefits tgat you can get if you have the diagnosis, but you must continue eating a gluten-normal diet while pursuing the diagnosis. Otherwise the only reason to continue eating gluten is social. There are over 200 symptoms that could be a result of celiac disease.. Celiac Disease and Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity  both cause multiple vitamin and mineral deficiency.  Dealing with that should help your recovery, even while eating gluten.  Phosphatidyl Choline supplements can help your gut if digesting fats is a problem,  Consider that any medications you take could be causing some of the symptoms, aside from gluten.
