Great Sandwich Bread

I don't often sign up to post about a product, but this is an exception. Yesterday we stopped by the Krogers in Willis Texas. We picked up a loaf of Gluten Free Houston's sandwich bread in an orange colored wrapper. I could not believe how good this bread was. The bread is in the frozen section but after thawing a piece in the microwave it was soft and the crust was even good. It was as close to regular gluten white sandwich bread as any breads we had tried so for and believe me we have tried a bunch (and thrown away a bunch). The slices are bigger then Udi's so it can make a full size sandwich and it is better tasting then Udi's which is now our second favorite bread. Udi's is good but mainly as a toast but Gluten Free Houston's bread is good just plain. I hope this company expands into buns like Udi's has because they are doing bread great!

Thanks Hootie,

I googled it and you can order it online. I don't know if they ship frozen or not. I don't see that listed. International shipping is almost $30 so it's a no go for me but anyone in the states interested in trying it you can order it here...

Along with some of their other products. Enjoy

Good to know! I also agree about Udi's and toast. Yum!

Update on my above post.

I made my post before checking to see if Gluten Free Houston had a web site. After making my post I looked for their site and they did indeed have a site.

They had everything a celiac person could ask for. So we decided to drive over today. We met the founders of the company and they are really nice people. We proceeded to load up on the goodies.

We bought more sandwich bread, dinner rolls, hot dog buns, hamburger buns, chicken pot pies, mini carrot cake muffins, vanilla pound cake, blue berry muffins, and cookies. We are full from taste testing, but have found everything to be excellent and worth the trip. The carrot cake minis are to die for. I was so impressed with everything I ordered my wife an Italian cream cake for her upcoming birthday which is one of her favorites.

I picked up her cake Thursday and it was a big hit for everyone. No one could tell that it was Gluten Free. It quickly disappeared and was enjoyed by everyone.

Wow!! Thank you for the info Hootie!!

Good to know, as I have only tried one rice bread and hated it!

I will definitely look for this bread from Gluten Free Houston or order on their website.

Also, the "Against the Grain" company makes a FANTASTIC Baguette.

Best "hero" bread I've had AND it's great as a side with Italian..

Find it. Order it. Love it.

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      Hey @Butch68, I also have dermatitis herpetiformis but don't suffer from it anymore. I used to drink Guinness too but I drink Cider now when out on social occasions. I assume you are in Ireland or the UK. If it's any good to you ... 9 White Deer based in Cork brew a range of gluten-free products including a gluten-free Stout. I'm not sure if they...

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley...

      Gluten Issues and Vitamin D

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease. Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too. is this everyone’s experience? Can I drink it? I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant react...

I'm not sure if they are certified though. https://www.9whitedeer.ie/ I haven't come across any certified gluten-free stouts this side of the pond.

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
