Anybody ordered flours, starches, etc. from www.bulkfoods.com? They have some pretty good prices and they ship in 48 states for @$5.00 an order no matter the weight. Being one that really bakes gluten-free, I would love to use this site, but was curious about cross-contamination.

Could be a good resource, but unsure about the gluten-free issue. I just sent the company an email, but I thought I would ask you guys as well.

Did you hear back from the company? I'd be interested in that website as well.

Thanks!

Not a word. But, I may order one thing and give it a try. I'll post if I do.

Have you tried buying rice and tapioca flours at an Asian market? I haven't, but my Diet mentor provided by my local Celiac Sprue charter swears by hers. She pays about $0.89/pound. That beats the $3.00 plus per bag I paid for at Whole Foods!

I bake for my 11 yo grandson and have used Asian rice flour and tapioca & potato starch for years without any problem. It saves a great deal of money. All the products are in individual packages (usually 1 lb), which I think is safer than bulk items, which can often be found in health food stores. Have not had a problem with the Asian products. Hope this helps you.

      Trader Joe's grocery prodcuts

      By LovintheGFlife · Posted

      I recently started shopping at a nearby Trader Joe's store. I was surprised at the number and variety of (healthy) gluten-free options sold there. I must admit their low prices are also quite tempting. However, I am curious as to the labeling on all their packages. While none of their products are certified as gluten-free, many are identified as 'GLUTEN FREE' on the packaging. Are these items safe for celiacs? Has anyone tried Trader Joe's products and have there been any adverse reactions?

      Gluten challenge

      By Beverley Ann Johnson · Posted

      HI, my doctor suggested one week of consuming gluten before blood tests.  I have been gluten free for 3 years.  Has anyone been through this and will I get exact results after one week of consuming gluten?  I don't even know if I can do this, if I get sick I am not sure if I can continue, any suggestions??  Thanks in advance.

      Not Sure What to Think

      By trents · Posted

      PPI's can be a wonderful healing agent when used as prescribed on the label which I believe recommends use of up to 8 weeks. But they are like antibiotics in that they are overprescribed and undermonitored. Docs generally prescribe them and then keep prescribing them because they take care of immediate symptoms so well. Physicians are more into treating symptoms than uncovering causes.

      For the vast majority of celiacs it's probably safe, however, it seems that for those who are super sensitive it's best to avoid such products. It's fairly easy now to find brands that are naturally gluten-free, which is what Celiac.com recommends.  You might finds this article interesting:
