Franz makes gluten free bread. YES you read it right gluten free bread by Franz. I have been gluten free for more then 10 years now and have tried about every kind of bread there is to try I think. But there is NOTHING to compare to Franz. It is the most wonderful soft, tasty gluten free bread you have ever had. I buy it at the out let store here in Longview. I have not seen it in any major store as of yet though. It is $4.99 a loaf. They are also doing hamburger buns that I have not gotten to try yet. But when I do I will report it here. They are also suppose to be doing a gluten free cereal again have not been able to try it yet. Hope there is some where near you so you can try it also.

There's an outlet store not too far from me, in Spokane. I might have to check it out, but could you advise what the ingredients are? If it has corn syrup or corn starch, and probably potato starch I would have to pass.

I did not see any of those things in there. Would really be worth your time to go see it they carry it.

So last night I was able to try the hamburger buns for the first time. I will NEVER have to worry about getting buns again. I just found the best that there is. They are so soft and have such a great flavor. I would really really recommend these buns and bread for any one looking for great bread. You will not be sorry.

I was at a local store today, and they had some of this bread, and it was $0.90 off, for a total $5.69 (after the discount). Figured I'd splurge and try it, since it doesn't have corn starch or syrup or potato starch. They had 2 varieties, mountain white and a 7 grain, I got the mountain white. Here are the ingredients:

brown rice flour, water, tapioca flour, whole grain sorghum flour, agave syrup, eggs, xanthan gum, extra virgin olive oil, yeast, cultured brown rice flour, sea salt, whole grain amaranth, enzymes.

The package also has a symbol with words: Gluten Free Facility, which is nice!

It will be really nice to have something bread-like without having to bake it myself. I toasted a couple of slices as soon as I got home, the flavor is not bad. It will also be my first time testing amaranth -- and hopefully a good way to celebrate my 1 year of being gluten-free which was yesterday!

I also looked at the ingredients on the 7grain, and they're similar to the white except it also has teff (which I also haven't tested yet) and quinoa and maybe millet also.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Bev in Milw · Posted

      Scott is correct….Thank you for catching that!      Direct link for info  of fillers.    http://www.glutenfreedrugs.com/Excipients.htm Link is on 2nd page  of www.glutenfreedrugs.com   Site was started by a pharmacist (or 2) maybe 15-20 yrs ago with LAST updated in  2017.  This makes it’s Drug List so old that it’s no longer relevant. Companies & contacts, along with suppliers &  sources would need to be referenced, same amount effort  as starting with current data on DailyMed      That being said, Excipient List is still be relevant since major changes to product labeling occurred prior ’17.           List is the dictionary that sources the ‘foreign-to-us’ terms used on pharmaceutical labels, terms we need to rule out gluten.    Note on DailyMed INFO— When you look for a specific drug on DailyMed, notice that nearly all of companies (brands/labels) are flagged as a ‘Repackager’… This would seem to suggest the actual ‘pills’ are being mass produced by a limited number of wholesaler suppliers (esp for older meds out of  patent protection.).      If so, multiple repackager-get  bulk shipments  from same supplier will all  be selling identical meds —same formula/fillers. Others repackager-could be switching suppliers  frequently based on cost, or runs both gluten-free & non- items on same lines.  No way to know  without contacting company.     While some I know have  searched pharmacies chasing a specific brand, long-term  solution is to find (or teach) pharmacy staff who’s willing help.    When I got 1st Rx ~8 years ago, I went to Walgreens & said I needed gluten-free.  Walked  out when pharmacist said  ‘How am I supposed  to know…’  (ar least he as honest… ). Walmart pharmacists down the block were ‘No problem!’—Once, they wouldn’t release my Rx, still waiting on gluten-free status from a new supplier. Re: Timeliness of DailyMed info?   A serendipitous conversation with cousin in Mi was unexpectedly reassuring.  She works in office of Perrigo, major products of OTC meds (was 1st to add gluten-free labels).  I TOTALLY lucked out when I asked about her job: “TODAY I trained a new full-time employee to make entries to Daily Med.’  Task had grown to hours a day, time she needed for tasks that couldn’t be delegated….We can only hope majorities of companies are as  conscientious!   For the Newbies…. SOLE  purpose of  fillers (possible gluten) in meds is to  hold the active ingredients together in a doseable form.  Drugs  given by injection or as IV are always gluten-free!  (Sometimes drs can do antibiotics w/ one-time injection rather than 7-10 days of  pills .) Liquid meds (typically for kids)—still read labels, but  could be an a simpler option for some products…

      Food Allergies

      By Ginger38 · Posted

      So I recently had allergy testing for IGE antibodies in response to foods. My test results came back positive to corn, white potatoes, egg whites. Tomatoes, almonds and peanuts to name a few.  I have had obvious reactions to a few of these - particularly tomatoes and corn- both GI issues. I don’t really understand all this allergy versus celiac stuff. If the food allergies are mild do I have to avoid these foods entirely? I don’t know what I will eat if I can’t  have corn based gluten free products

      Bread choice for a newbie

      By Kris2093u4 · Posted

      Geography makes a difference.  I'm in the West and Trader Joe's gluten-free bread tastes great and is a better price than most gluten-free breads sold elsewhere in my area.

      7yo struggling!

      By JForman · Posted

      We have four children (7-14 yo), and our 7 year old was diagnosed with NCGS (though all Celiac labs were positive, her scope at 4 years old was negative so docs in the US won't call it celiac). We have started her on a Gluten Free diet after 3 years of major digestive issues and ruling out just about everything under the sun. Our home and kitchen and myself are all gluten-free. But I have not asked my husband/her dad or her other siblings to go completely gluten-free with us. They are at home, but not out of the home. This has led to situations when we are eating out where she has to consistently see others eating things she can't have and she has begun to say "Well, I can't have <fill in the blank>...stupid gluten."  How have you supported your gluten-free kiddos in the mental health space of this journey, especially young ones like her. I know it's hard for me as an adult sometimes to miss out, so I can't imagine being 7 and dealing with it! Any tips or ideas to help with this?

      By Fayeb23 · Posted

      I’ve recently had bloods test due to fatigue. Iron was found to be low Serum ferritin level 4 ug/L so doctor sent for Coeliac test. Results have come back TTG ABS NUMERICAL > 250.0 U/mL is this a high reading? Am not waiting a Gastroenterology referral but this could take 10 weeks! This is all total new to me, didn’t think for a second I would have coeliac disease. Been advised not to change diet until seen by specialist
