Gluten Bread Weird Taste/smell

Hello,

Just tried 1st gluten-free bread: UDIS WHITE.

What ingredient gives gluten free bread an off greeny/metalic/raw flour flavor. I've recently tried UDIS white bread, and could not stand the smell/taste. I'm wondering: is it the rice flour, tapioca starch/products, potato starch, or canola oil?

Mariposa bagels has a similar smell/taste, but not as strong (more palatable). So I'm wondering which grain could be causing this odor/flavor?

Thank you!

Welcome to the board. How long have you been gluten free? I ask because it can take a while before our taste 'memories' of bread fade. For some gluten free breads can have a strange taste at first. Some people find it helps to go a couple months without bread before trying the gluten free ones. Most of our breads are also better toasted or warmed.

Not everyone likes the same breads, for example, I can't stand ones with flax or bean flour and don't tolerate ones with soy. Others can't stand the plain white Udi's that I like the best. All we can do is try different ones until we find one we tolerate and like.

Funny you post this. Someone posted about Rudi's having an odd smell - and I hadn't noticed it.

Well, the last loaf I bought had a smell to it. I think the new one does, too.

Luckily, I found it dissipates and doesn't affect the taste.

It is a weird smell, though. And Rudi's is my favorite.

I haven't noticed it in any of the plain flours I've bought, so I cant pinpoint it.

I have allergies, haven't smelt in years, lol. But I did have to stop bread for quite a while before going back. Now I like Udi's white breads the best.

I can't stand any of them. I use a romaine lettuce leaf. No smell there. lol. :P

I'm not a fan of Udi's either. :blink: It had a weird texture to me. I suppose it's better than the other store bought ones, but I'm not a huge fan. I just make my own... but I really got over the bread thing. Go with the romaine, better for ya! ;)

Try the Udi's whole grain. It has a more normal taste to me. The suggestion to go off bread altogether is a good one. After a while, I forgot what "egular" bread tasted like. Donuts... not so much!

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By trents · Posted

      Your DGP-G is also high. The thing to do now would be to trial the gluten-free diet for a few months to see if there is improvement in symptoms.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Roses8721! How long were you off gluten before getting the celiac blood testing done? The testing is not valid after having been gluten free for a significant period of time. Many of your symptoms align with celiac disease.

      High DGP-A with normal IGA

      By rei.b · Posted

      Hello, I am feeling frustrated. I have hEDS and lifelong digestive issues but my GI PA is very focused on my celiac panel and I just want to make sure that she should be focused on that because completely changing my diet seems to have worsened my symptoms.  Symptoms are constipation, diarrhea, and acid reflux with spicy foods and certain foods like tomatoes, bell peppers, and onions. I also don't have a gallbaldder as it was removed almost a year ago. This also exacerbated my symptoms. I did have joint pain from hEDS but that was already treated with low dose naltrexone about 4 months prior to going completely gluten free. Endoscopy was abnormal but inconclusive; basically showed some inflammation - which common with hEDS. I don't have any vitamin deficiency.   Celiac Panel Results: TTG-A <0.5 U/ML Reference Range: 0.5-14.9 U/ML NEGATIVE: <15 POSITIVE: =>15 DGP-A 72.0 U/ML Reference Range: 0.2-14.9 U/ML NEGATIVE: <15 POSITIVE: =>15 TTG-G <0.8 U/ML Reference Range: 0.8-14.9 U/ML NEGATIVE: <15 POSITIVE: =>15 DGP-G 24.0 U/ML Reference Range: 0.4-14.9 U/ML NEGATIVE: <15 POSITIVE: =>15 IgG-A-M Results: IMMUNOGLOBULIN A, QN, SERUM 165 MG/DL Reference Range: 87-352 MG/DL IMMUNOGLOBULIN M, QN, SERUM 164 MG/DL Reference Range: 26-217 MG/DL   What are your thoughts, internet? Are there any questions I should be asking the PA? Thanks!

      By Roses8721 · Posted

      Help. I’m spiraling. Years of extensive symptoms:  What could this be? Years of: Mildly elevated alk and alt Fatty liver Random days of feeling like I’m coming down w flu but no fever and nobody else in house sick Intermittent diarrhea Severe abdominal distension Long history of cavities and enamel deficiency Sound sensitivity Anxiety and depression Low libido Sun skin allergy Frequent fatigue ended up seeing PCP because I looked 8 mo preg. Started gluten-free diet then celiac serology negative. SW GI Dr dx me w celiac as I had been in bed for 3 days after eating gluten after cutting. GI said not to do biopsy because it was clear what was going on and added to chart. My spiral is not seeing anywhere this is done and want to see if anyone else has dealt w this. If not celiac idk what else I will do. Family history or celiac as well as a death related to this.
