Found A New Bread!

[K8ling]

It was a little dry around the edges, but I liked it more for sandwiches than the Kinnikinnik (or however that's spelled). It has no info about shared processing and I couldn't find anything, but I ate some a few hours ago and it seems to be ok. I will look it up again later. Made a great PBJ and my son seemed almost as thrilled to see it as he is about Udi's.

I never liked the Kinnikinnick bread (but the hot dog rolls are OK). I like the Udi's whole grain. How does the Nature's Own compare? Is it less expensive?

For me, it is easier to obtain. My son gets carsick and downtown macon is about 25 minutes away (on a good day) so I have to cut back on food, give him dramamine, wait for it to kick in, get downtown, get the bread, and make it back before it thaws (never happens, all my bread is crumbly from being frozen and refrozen) and occasionally clean out the car when the dramamine doesn't work. So for me, in terms of cost of time it was MUCH cheaper (and $2 cheaper is real money lol).

The kid and I had PB and J for lunch and it was reeeally good! We are going to make grilled cheese tomorrow and see what it's like. For kids, I would definitely suggest cutting the crusts. It made great dinos for lunch though (my son likes his sandwiches cut like brontosaurs). All in all? 4/5 stars (only a 4 because of the crust issue).

Where did you find it? In a regular store? I can only get Udi's at Whole Foods so if I could find a good bread at my regular store that would be great! I really don't like going into Whole Foods because I'm am totally incapable of just going in for one thing and coming back out again. lol... I think it's Nature's Own that makes a really high-fiber regular bread. I used to eat that when I was doing Weight Watchers because you could get two slices for one WW point.

I bought it at Kroger (our local store). I didn't see it at Publix or the commissary. We made toast with it this morning and my son asked for more! I think I still prefer Udi's but this is a good second

Drat, we don't have Kroger around here. I'll check though, just in case there might be one in the next town. And in my regular store (Giant). Thanks!

I was excited to see a new bread option, but sad to see it has soy.

Oh well, at least it's one more mainstream company making gluten free stuff. Those that can eat it, buy lots if it's good so they will see it as a success. Once the word gets out among the mainstream companies that they really is a market for gluten-free stuff more will join in hopefully.

Yeah, I think they might be tackling one allergen at a time. I have a friend who is allergic to Soy and I understand the frustration. Even at my allergy friendly house she has to read labels like a madwoman.

But for those of us who can eat soy, it IS a blessing because the bread is the hardest thing, I think.

I think I saw where this bread is only available in the Florida, Georgia area at first. My boys (14 & 17) would love if I cut sandwiches into dinos. Oldest still puts sprinkles on his pb toast!

We have a Whole Foods here, but it is about 45 minutes away and sometimes I go over and get a load of bagels and pizza shells, but for bread I prefer to order the Katz gluten free Challah loaf online. The shipping is a little expensive, but I order 8 at a time. The come fresh, double wrapped and I then freeze them. I take a few slices out at a time to take to work for a sandwich or just to munch on. The texture of the Katz bread is moist, soft, nutty and a little sweet. It is absolutely addictive. They make several items that I could not do without. Their large challah buns are great for burgers or a mini-sub. Their rugelach is totally decadent. It is a little more inconvenient to order on line, (I'm trying to get some local stores to carry this product), but if taste and texture is important to you as it is to me, it is worth it.
