Udi's Update

I went to Colorado to see my 102 and 1/2 year old mother, I am sure she was never a Celiac. Anyway when I was there I visited an Udi's store and asked questions. It turns out around 6 months ago they moved their gluten free products to a new and much larger bakery. The demand for their products was increasing so rapidly that they had to make a move. Prior to that they made all their baked goods in the same bakery. They have gluten and gluten free products.

Having said that, before I left on my trip some people had complained about the quality of their product being inconsistent for a few months. It is my guess that the move and the demand may have affected that. I would bear with them. I was not able to visit the bakery because it was in a new location but I did buy several of their products at one of their stores. They have a new chocolate/chocolate chip muffin that is really good and they said they will be coming out with new cookies.

At the Denver (Jeffco fairgrounds) gluten-free fair a few weeks ago, they said their hamburger and hotdog buns are almost ready for sale. They are working on packaging. :D

I haven't found a good hamburger or hot dog bun yet so I will be ready to buy them when they come out. I had a sandwich at their store twice and they were soooo good.

I had my credit card out and was all set to order a few things from their web site (loaf of whole grain bread, package of 2 pizza crusts, package of cinnamon rolls, package of bagels and a package of one of their granolas. But then I saw the shipping charge. Over $25 for 5 items. I know it's 2-night air delivery but I just can't spend that much on shipping. :( The only Udi item I've been able to find in any grocery store is the white sandwich bread and I love it and would like to try other things they make too. Our local health food store doesn't sell any Udi items. :( Very disappointing.

Have you tried asking them to carry more items? I have had good luck getting my stores to start carrying certain gluten free foods by requesting it. If they are able to get the Udi's white bread then they should be able to get other Udi's items as well.

I agree with GlutenFreeManna. Udi's built a new bakery because of high demand and they want to keep up with it and expand, so I would ask store about it and tell them you will buy several of the products they stock. Their bagels are good too.

Ask your local health food store to carry Udi's. Tell them you will buy it. Ask them for a case price. It will probably be cheaper then ordering direct. Use this link for a store near you Open Original Shared Link

      Celiac attack confusion and anxiety

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
