On My Way To Gluten-Free Bakery

Again~ Still waiting on my diagnosis, but I am starting to prepare myself, and learn about my diet options.

Someone just told me a few weeks ago about a bakery that opened a few months ago that is gluten-free. It gets rave reviews and is about 3 miles from my house. I'm not even sure what I'm going to get, but I want to take a look. Yesterday, there happened to be a big article in the paper about it.

Any suggestions on some staples I should try? I'm at least going to buy a loaf of bread. I also hear she makes great ravioli.

You know I wish everyone had a city or even a state on their profile. Sometimes I read about a gluten-free place/item and then spend time researching only to find it is in a state 5 states away :( I am north of Dallas....

When I first got on this forum, the box with your picture, dates, post # , etc used to say where you were from ( if you wanted). Hopefully, T will come back and post.

Hi everyone! Sorry! I live in Central NJ. I guess I'm allowed to post the name??? It's in Ford's NJ and it's called "Fallon's Gluten Free Bakery." If you Goolge it, there was an article in thnt.com yesterday. It took me probably about 8 minutes to get there. I just got a loaf of bread which was $7. Seemed a bit expensive, but I think you can pay that much for "regular" bakery bread. I tasted just the end piece and it was really good! Though I'm new to trying out gluten-free, so I don't have much to compare. I would totally eat it, gluten issues or not.

She also gave me a sample of crumb cake, which was yummy. Next time I go back, I want to try ravilois.

I also must admitt since I'm not gluten-free yet, I also stopped at McD's for a cheeseburger. :huh: I'm livin' it up until I get tested. :P (Luckily, I don't get violently ill like some of you.)

Fallon also has a website if you happen to live in the area.

Tara

P.S. Promise to get working on my profile.

If you live in Kansas City area, I think I could help! Have some connections you will need. However, we have 3 commercial gluten-free bakers here. No walk up bakery. They sell to restaurants and grocery stores.

I'm in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Wish I was closer. I think it could work here...I just need to find a business person to advise me.

      Bob red mill gluten free oats

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified...

      Disaccharide deficient, confusing biopsy results, no blood test

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you...

      High TTG-IgG and Normal TTG-IgA

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease...

The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.

      Let me suggest an adjustment to your terminology. "Celiac disease" and "gluten intolerance" are the same. The other gluten disorder you refer to is NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which is often referred to as being "gluten sensitive". Having said that, the reality is there is still much inconsistency in how people use these terms. Since celiac disease does damage to the small bowel lining it often results in nutritional deficiencies such as anemia. NCGS does not damage the small bowel lining so your history of anemia may suggest you have celiac disease as opposed to NCGS. But either way, a gluten-free diet is in order. NCGS can cause bodily damage in other ways, particularly to neurological systems.
