I Have Just Discovered Udi's Cinnamon Raisin Bread

My Target has started carrying Udi's cinnamon raisin bread, the first store I've found it in. And there is a big problem with this bread!

The BIG PROBLEM is that it is SO good and I'm eating it too much! I just ate practically half a loaf, with cream cheese. :ph34r: First of all, I am supposed to be on Weight Watchers. I don't even want to know how many points that is. And second, what kind of a dinner is that? :lol:

My new love, Udi's Cinnamon Raisin bread. :wub:

I have heard its great so I haven't tried it. I have too many things I shouldn't be eating already (calorie-wise). I have also heard it freezes well and makes great toast - 1 piece at a time. :o

This is what my daughter does . . . then she butters it and puts MORE cinnamon and sugar on it . . . because when you're 10, there is no such thing as too much cinnamon and sugar . . . also, no such thing as too much cinnamon and sugar when you're in your 40's either :P

Sounds great, waiting till they get it here. Then after I eat 1/2 a loaf I will feel guilty with a big smile on my face and my hand on my ever expanding tummy.

This bread is most definitely a treat for me - I love it when I'm craving something sweet and don't want to give in to the calories for a full on dessert. ;)

I love Udi's millet-chia bread. Unfortunately so does my non-Celiac husband - he ate half the loaf last time! (though in his defense, we have no regular bread in the house)

Lol... so, if two slices of regular bread is 4 points then how many points is half a loaf, with each piece slathered in cream cheese?? :o:ph34r::blink:

oy. :P

This thread has cracked me up! It's good to see people enjoy their food! :lol:

I feel the same way about Canyon cinnamon raisin bread. I stopped buying it for awhile because I made a piggy of myself. Thank God we have people who make the effort to develop good gluten-free bread!

Well....It does have raisins for much needed fiber. And Calcium from the cream cheese. Cinnamon is very good for you.....

So I think we can rationalize that there was some real health benefits.

This is what we have the 49 bonus points for. I know this is not WW either but try it with Nutella.

I like the way you think! I always try to think up some random healthy reason to be eating the sweets I love. I've been eying that bread every time I stop in the store and now I think I'm going to have to buy it.

      how much gluten do I need to eat before blood tests?

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after eating them. If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.

      Under the circumstances, your decision to have the testing done on day 14 sounds very reasonable. But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      After the birth of my daughter nearly 6 years ago, my stools changed. They became thin if they happened to be solid (which was rare) but most of the time it was Bristol #6 (very loose and 6-8x a day). I was on various medications and put it down to that. A few years later I went on this strict "fruit and meat" diet where I just ate meat, fruit, and squash...

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

But I think by now you know for certain that you either have celiac disease or NCGS and either way you absolutely need to eliminate gluten from your diet. I don't think you have to have an official diagnosis of celiac disease to leverage gluten free service in hospitals or institutional care and I'm guessing your physician would be willing to grant you a diagnosis of gluten sensitivity (NCGS) even if your celiac testing comes up negative. Also, you need to be aware that oats (even gluten free oats) is a common cross reactor in the celiac community. Oat protein (avenin) is similar to gluten. You might want to look at some other gluten free hot  breakfast cereal alternatives.

      After the birth of my daughter nearly 6 years ago, my stools changed. They became thin if they happened to be solid (which was rare) but most of the time it was Bristol #6 (very loose and 6-8x a day). I was on various medications and put it down to that. A few years later I went on this strict "fruit and meat" diet where I just ate meat, fruit, and squash vegetables. I noticed my stools were suddenly formed, if a bit narrow. I knew then that the diarrhea was probably food related not medication related. I tried following the fodmap diet but honestly it was just too complicated, I just lived with pooping 8x a day and wondering how I'd ever get and keep a job once my children were in school.  This past December I got my yearly bloodwork and my triglycerides were high. I looked into Dr. William Davis (wheat belly author) and he recommended going off wheat and other grains. This is the first time in my life I was reading labels to make sure there was no wheat. Within 2 weeks, not only were my stools formed and firm but I was only pooping twice a day, beautiful formed Bristol #4.  Dr. Davis allows some legumes, so I went ahead and added red lentils and beans. Nervous that the diarrhea would come back if I had IBS-D. Not only did it not come back, it just made my stools even bigger and beautiful. Still formed just with a lot more width and bulk. I've also been eating a lot of plant food like tofu, mushrooms, bell peppers, hummus etc which I thought was the cause of my diarrhea before and still, my stools are formed. In January I ran a genetics test because I knew you had to have the genes for celiac. The report came back with  DQ 2.2 plus other markers that I guess are necessary in order for it to be possible to have celiac. Apparently DQ 2.2 is the "rarer" kind but based on my report it's genetically possible for me to have celiac.  I know the next step is to bring gluten back so I can get testing but I am just not wanting to do that. After suffering with diarrhea for years I can't bring myself to do it right now. So that is where I am!
