Flying Toast!

My daughter eats Ener-G bread. Yeah, she actually likes it. Which is good because she needs to eat a somewhat low carb diet. Currently she is eating the light tapioca. I think that is what it is called. The problem? The slices are so light, the toaster literally hurls them into the air and often we have to search around to find them. It's getting really annoying. You can't just put your hand over the toaster and try to catch them either. Because they are so hot coming out of there.

The image of this just made my morning. I understand it is a real problem, but I can just picture the daily ritual of trying to "catch the toast" every morning. Maybe this is the type of bread that would be better toasted in a toaster oven instead of a pop-up. Good luck! Maybe wear an oven mitt (catcher's mitt...lol) when attempting to place your hand over the toaster. Happy Monday! :D

Butterfly net? Little parachutes for your toast?

It IS an amusing image that you've conjured up . . . hide-n-seek with the morning toast. :P

Sounds like your toaster has a good spring in it.

If my dog were in your kitchen he would sit patiently & wait (like a bear waits for a salmon upstream) for the toast to magically pop in his mouth (& he wouldn't care if its too hot :o ) lol.....

That was the obvious solution but we have no toaster oven or a place to put one.

I will look for a butterfly net. They should be out in the stores soon.

As for the spring, that could be it! My toaster doesn't seem to do that but I put wheat bread in it. Hers is a cheap one.

I like Ener-G Tapioca bread, too. When I tried the light version, the same thing happened, although my slices just popped up high enough to end up flat on the top of the toaster.

The light wasn't my favorite. It was like eating air. Also, the loaf was so light, I felt like I was being overcharged.

:D

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      There are eight essential B vitamins. They are all water soluble. Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys. Thiamine is Vitamin B 1. Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses. Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily. The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is...

      Thanks very interesting I have to see if I should take these 2 vitamins along with my multi and super Vit B complex or if its too much or would hurt me. I don't have any other health issues but would love to see if this improves anything especially to feel stronger build muscle.

      There are other Celiac genes. HLA DQ 2 and HLA DQ 8 show up in people from Northern European descent.   People of Mediterranean descent have HLA DQ 7.  People of Asian descent have HLA DQ 9.   There's other Indigenous populations that have other HLA genes that code for Celiac disease.   Are you still having symptoms?   What do you include in your diet?  Are you vegetarian? Are you taking any prescription medication?  Omeprazole?  Metformin?   Do you have anemia?  Thyroid problems? Are you taking any vitamins or herbal supplements?

      There are eight essential B vitamins.  They are all water soluble.  Any excess of B vitamins is easily excreted by the kidneys.   Thiamine is Vitamin B 1.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Benfotiamine and TTFD are forms of Thiamine that the body can utilize very easily.   The form of Thiamine in the supplements you mentioned is Thiamine Mononitrate, a form that the body does not absorb well and does not utilize well.  Only about thirty percent of the amount on the label is actually absorbed in the small intestine.  Less than that can actually be used by the body.  Manufacturers add thiamine mononitrate to their products because it's cheap and shelf-stable.  Thiamine and other B vitamins break down when exposed to light and heat and over time.  Thiamine Mononitrate is a form that does not break down over time sitting on a shelf waiting for someone to buy them.  What makes Thiamine Mononitrate shelf stable makes it difficult for the body to turn into a useable form.  In fact, it takes more thiamine to turn it into a useable form.   Gastrointestinal Beriberi is a localized shortage of Thiamine in the gastrointestinal tract.  High carbohydrate meals can result in gastrointestinal symptoms of Gastric Beriberi.  Fiber is a type of carbohydrate.  So, high fiber/carbohydrate snacks could trigger Gastric Beriberi.   Since blood tests for Thiamine and other B vitamins are so inaccurate, the World Health Organization recommends trying Thiamine and looking for health improvement because it's safe and nontoxic.
