Kinnikinnick

I read here so many people buying from Kinnikinnick.

I went to the website and found that they are not compatible with Mac computers. They say you can use a basic version but I found that I could not. It wouldn't allow me to do anything.

Quite amazing. I have had a Mac for years and years and never encountered a website I couldn't use. Too bad. Sounds like they make good stuff.

Anyone else share my disappointment? :( Claire

Check your local health food store. Alot carry the kinnikinnick bread. If they don't they may order it in for you. Having said that the only way it is at all edible is toasted. I does make good BLT's

Claire,

I just ordered from it today and some of it is pretty good. Here's their toll free number- I bet they'll let you do a phone order.

Call Us Toll Free:

1-877-503-4466

If you need help with the items, i don't mind if you p.m me and i can tell you what they have.

The bagels, donuts, pizza crust, bread and chocolate chip cookies are great. Cinnamon raisin bagels are NOT tasty.

Is the cinnamon raisin bread decent? I just ordered some... I hope it's not gross. Someone on here suggested trying the English Muffins instead of the buns, because I thought the buns were like a hockey puck.

I like the cinnamon raisin bagels too. I don't care for the tapioca cinnamon raisin bread though. It is sliced too thin and burns easily. I am also not happy with the texture. I love so many of the other foods they make that I can live without the cinnamon raisin bread. I want to try the festive bread, but I don't think it is late enough in the fall for them to start making it.

I was disappointed with my last order. My friend and I purchased a total of 7 bags of bagels, and they were ALL out of stock, so they didn't send ANY! So I have been anxiously waiting to place my next order. I want a bagel badly...

They do take phone orders too.

God bless,

Mariann

Our local health store just starting with gluten free foods. Likewise local Giant. No Kinnikinnick anything, Whole Foods may have something - will see when I go again. I don't care about bread/ Woud; like to find a good scone.

I didn't care for the cinnamon raisin bagels. I didn't try their cinnamon bread. I really like the tapioca rice bread. The pieces are large and thinly sliced. Great for my kids who have loose teeth. My kids prefer it slightly toasted. The donuts are great. We add frosting. I think it's Pillsbury double chocolate that we're using. If you find what you like at Kinnikinnick, order tons to save on shipping. Shipping is a flat $10 fee for each order up to $200. It's best to do it that way and keep the extras in a freezer. I have an extra freezer in the garage for this reason.

Warning: The worse pizza crust I've ever (in my life)had was from the gluten free pantry.

If you know someone with a computer or go to public library where they have public computers or internet cafe(?) go to website and download an order form and review site to see what you want to order, write it down on order form and mail into/fax into or call into Kinni's for an order....

Their Italian bread is really good--so much better than Energie's (which feels like sawdust in your mouth). I like Kinninnicks made into sandwiches/am real pleased with it. Barbara

My local (southern california) Whole Foods does carry some Kinnikinnick stuff. Check the freezer section. Also, some WF's now carry some of their own gluten-free bakery goods. I'm pretty sure they had gluten-free scones.

Claire, we have Whole Foods down here in Dallas. They have a GREAT Gluten-Free line of bakery items. If I remember correctly, they have cranberry scones. You might ask about them next time you're in.

I haven't had them as I have an aversion to eating things shaped in a triangle. :D

      Outgrow celiac?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Testing can't alone be trusted.  Else why would it take so many years of testing and retesting and misdiagnosis to finally be told, yes you have Celiac Disease. As to what to eat, I like pre 1950 style food.  Before the advent of TV dinners.  Fresh food is better for you, and cooking from scratch is cheaper.  Watch Rachel Ray's 30 Minute Meals for how to cook.  Keep in mind that she is not gluten free, but her techniques are awesome.  Just use something else instead of wheat, barley, rye. Dr Fuhrman is a ex cardiologist.  His book Eat to Live and Dr Davis' book Wheatbelly were instrumental in my survival.

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch--thanks for the tip about Dupixent, and I've added it to the article:

      I just want to clarify that what I posted is a category of research summaries we've done over the years, and nearly each one shows that there is definitely a connection to celiac disease and migraine headaches. The latest study said: "the study did indicate some potential causal associations between celiac disease and migraine with or without aura, as well as between migraine without aura and ulcerative colitis...this study did not find evidence of a shared genetic basis..." Anyway, there is definitely a connection, and you can go through more of the articles here if you're interested: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/celiac-disease-amp-related-diseases-and-disorders/migraine-headaches-and-celiac-disease/

      Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis has taken Me from Me

      By SusanJ · Posted

      Two months ago, I started taking Dupixent for dermatitis herpetiformis and it has completely cleared it up. I can't believe it! I have had a terrible painful, intensely itchy rash for over a year despite going fully gluten-free. See if your doctor will prescribe Dupixent. It can be expensive but I am getting it free. When the dermatitis herpetiformis was bad I could not do anything. I just lay in bed covered in ice packs to ease the pain/itching and using way too Clobetasol. Dapsone is also very good for dermatitis herpetiformis (and it is generic). It helped me and the results were immediate but it gave me severe anemia so the Dupixent is better for me. Not sure if it works for everyone. I cannot help with the cause of your stress but from experience I am sure the severe stress is making the celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis worse. Very difficult for you with having children to care for and you being so sick. Would this man be willing to see a family therapist with you? He may be angry at you or imagine that your illness is a psychosomatic excuse not to take care of him. A therapist might help even if he won't go with you. Also do you have any family that you could move in with (with the kids) for a short time to get away? A break may be good for you both.

      @tiffanygosci, Thiamine deficiency is a thing in pregnancy for "normal" people, so it's exponentially more important for those with celiac disease and malabsorption issues. I studied nutrition before earning a degree in Microbiology because I was curious what the vitamins were doing inside the body.  See my blog.  Click on my name to go to my page, scroll to drop down menu "activities" and select blog.   So glad you're motivated to see the dietician!  We're always happy to help with questions.  Keep us posted on your progress!
