Just got back from a trip to So. Wisconsin and went to the Whole Foods in Madison, the only one in Wisconsin. They now have baked goods baked in their own bakery and shipped in. My guess is that they go through a LOT of it as what I got from the shelf was partly frozen and they probably can't even keep it out there long enough for it to thaw. I passed up the cookies, pies etc. but bought the cinnamon raison bread and it is soooooooooo good, I just can't even tell you how much. It is as good as the best cinnamon raison bread that I have ever had. These people are going be rich just off their gluten-free baked goods alone if the rest is as good as the product that I bought. What a treat to buy something that is of this quality. I also bought Energy pretzles with sesame seeds that are excellent....had never seen them before and I think I will try to see if my health food store will get them in for me. They are dark brown, light and buttery and the sesame seeds add a nice touch. REALLY good pretzles. Just wanted to share these two great products with you.

My dad lives about 4 blocks from there! Awesome, now I can check it out when I visit. I was wondering if they had a bake shop at that store.

Not all Whole Foods stores carry the items from the gluten-free Bakehouse. I checked out the website and was glad I did because the store I was planning to go to does not carry the line. So I am bringing my daughter to a different location tomorrow to stock up. She is really excited! Anyway, just thought I'd let you know it is a good idea to check the website first since some of you have to travel long distances to get to a Whole Foods. Also, someone on Delphi suggested bringing a cooler to those of you who do travel far for your gluten-free food.

Yeah, lots of the Whole Foods things are good. Ever eat some of the things from Wild Oats? Basically, very similar store to Whole Foods. Fortunatly for me, there are about 4 Wild Oats with in 10 minutes of driving and 2 Whole Foods. :> Gotta love Boulder, CO.

If you stop by a Wild Oats, try their own brand of mini chocolate chip cookies, gluten free of course. I think they are the tastiest cookie I have eaten before. That includes non wheat ones, I still remeber other fondly as I just got on gluten free about a month ago.

We went to check out the Bakehouse line today. There was not too much to choose from. Many of the items listed on the website were not available. I did not expect they all would be, but we had about 5 items to choose from.However, there were some brands I had not previously been able to obtain so all was not lost. I did want to say that many of the gluten-free Bakehouse foods are suited more to adults than children. My 11 year old was interested in the cookies but not much else. She did enjoy them though and that is what counts!

I brought the lemon poppyseed cake to a cookout and NO ONe even knew it was gluten-free. And the second best part (the first being the taste) is that it's a dedicated warehouse so you don't have to worry about cross-contagulation (my friend Scott has an album out and that is the name of it so now my husband and I refer to cross-contamination as that instead- more fun!).

I agree..there bakery is awsome!!! :D

We tried the apple pie, I couldn't taste any differencefrom regular, it was fantastic. We got the cornbread, yum. We also tried the banana bread, unbelievably good, but the best for me was the almond scones.

The only kind of cookie that I have really missed is my mother's almond thumbprints, my most favorite cookie in the world. I don't really like scones because they are usually too bland and dry. Whole foods scones tasted more like my mom's thumbprints. Moist fabulous and totally yummy.

My husband did not know the chocolate chip cookie was gluten-free until I told him. This was a first in our house, someone not recognizing food as gluten-free. The food is ridiculously expensive though, but I will spend the money for the taste my daughter loves. We cannot believe how happy she is with those cookies!

I agree, Whole Foods has delicious gluten-free stuff. Even Trader Joes does. These are the two stores I have within walking distance from my place, and I often go there. I prefer Whole Foods to Trader Joes, though. Whole Foods has a chocolate truffle (flourless) cake which is simply divine!

The Bakehouse stuff is fantastic! For New Yorkers-- the 23rd St location does not carry any gluten-free stuff, but 14th St has quite a bit. Not sure about 55th St yet. I have been thoroughly enjoying the peanut butter cookies and cornbread, although, like all gluten-free food, they are outrageously expensive.

      Diagnosed celiac for 1-2 months ago and everything makes me bloated.

      By Beverage · Posted

      I had a very rough month after diagnosis. No exaggeration, lost so much inflammatory weight, I looked like a bag of bones, underneath i had been literally starving to death. I did start feeling noticeably better after a month of very strict control of my kitchen and home. What are you eating for breakfast and lunch? I ignored my doc and ate oats, yes they were gluten free, but some brands are at the higher end of gluten free. Lots of celics can eat Bob's Red Mill gluten-free oats, but not me. I can now eat them, but they have to be grown and processed according to the "purity protocol" methods. I mail order them, Montana Gluten-Free brand. A food and symptoms and activities log can be helpful in tracking down issues. You might be totally aware, but I have to mention about the risk of airborne gluten. As the doc that diagnosed me warned . . Remember eyes, ears, nose, and mouth all lead to your stomach and intestines.  Are you getting any cross contamination? Airborne gluten? Any pets eating gluten (they eat it, lick themselves, you pet them...)? Any house remodeling? We live in an older home, always fixing something. I've gotten glutened from the dust from cutting into plaster walls, possibly also plywood (glues). The suggestions by many here on vitamin supplements also really helped me. I had some lingering allergies and asthma, which are now 99% gone. I was taking Albuterol inhaler every hour just to breathe, but thiamine in form of benfotiamine kicked that down to 1-2 times a day within a few days of starting it. Also, since cutting out inflammatory seed oils (canola, sunflower, grapeseed, etc) and cooking with real olive oil, avocado oil, ghee, and coconut oil, I have noticed even greater improvement overall and haven't used the inhaler in months! It takes time to weed out everything in your life that contains gluten, and it takes awhile to heal and rebuild your health. At first it's mentally exhausting, overwhelming, even obsessive, but it gets better and second nature.

      Protein or fat?

      By Jsingh · Posted

      Hi,  I care for my seven year old daughter with Celiac. After watching her for months, I have figured out that she has problem with two kinds of fats- animal fat and cooking oils. It basically makes her intestine sore enough that she feels spasms when she is upset. It only happens on days when she has eaten more fat than her usual every day diet. (Her usual diet has chia seeds, flaxseeds, and avocado/ pumpkin seeds for fat and an occasional chicken breast.) I stopped using cooking oils last year, and when I reintroduced eggs and dairy, both of which I had held off for a few months thinking it was an issue of the protein like some Celiac patients habe mentioned to be the case, she has reacted in the same fashion as she does with excess fats. So now I wonder if her reaction to dairy and eggs is not really because of protein but fat.   I don't really have a question, just wondering if anyone finds this familiar and if it gets better with time.  Thank you.

      High Cost of Gluten-Free Foods

      By Chanda Richard · Posted

      Hello, My name is Chanda and you are not the only one that gose through the same things. I have found that what's easiest for me is finding a few meals each week that last. I have such severe reactions to gluten that it shuts my entire body down. I struggle everyday with i can't eat enough it feels like, when I eat more I lose more weight. Make sure that you look at medication, vitamins and shampoo and conditioner also. They have different things that are less expensive at Walmart.

      Frequent nausea after gluten-free diet

      By petitojou · Posted

      Thank you so much! I saw some tips around the forum to make a food diary and now that I know that the community also struggles with corn, egg and soy, the puzzle pieces came together! Just yesterday I tried eating eggs and yes, he’s guilty and charged. Those there are my 3 combo nausea troublemakers. I’m going to adjust my diet ☺️ Also thank you for the information about MCAS! I’m from South America and little it’s talked about it in here. It’s honestly such a game changer now for treatment and recovery. I know I’m free from SIBO and Candida since I’ve been tested for it, but I’m still going to make a endoscopy to test for H. Pylori and Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). Thank you again!! Have a blessed weekend 🤍

      Unusual bright yellow but odourless discharge

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Yes, I, too, have osteoporosis from years of malabsorption, too.  Thiamine and magnesium are what keep the calcium in place in the bones.  If one is low in magnesium, boron, selenium, zinc, copper, and other trace minerals, ones bone heath can suffer.  We need more than just calcium and Vitamin D for strong bones.  Riboflavin B 2, Folate B 9 and Pyridoxine B 6 also contribute to bone formation and strength.   Have you had your thyroid checked?  The thyroid is important to bone health as well.  The thyroid uses lots of thiamine, so a poorly functioning thyroid will affect bone heath.
