    Technically In Aus if something is labeled as gluten free then that is what it means. Be slightly careful if it is a imported product though as on rare ocassions you will find something labeled gluten-free but has the warning about been processed on other lines. The standards we had a few years ago were already fairly strict but then they got even stricter...

    Have been pleasantly surprised for the third time this after finding another "didn't think I would be able to eat that food" Apart from the milk drinks I found a weight watchers frozen meal and now some frozen potato products. Also found purebred hot cross buns in Coles and one Woolies that was stocking Livwell ones. Kind of makes up for the fact...

    I guess I just always assumed that there was gluten in the flavourings of those cereals as well as the actaul wheat etc. I tried the nutrigrain ones today. It doesn't taste like I remember the milk from nutrigrain tasting but it's been so so long since I had it. It wasn't bad. Something to add to breakfast anyway.

    In woolies tonight I came across coco pop breakfast drinks. Next to the up and go etc. I read the ingredients and they seemed to be gluten-free. Just checked the website and it would seem to suggest the same. Open Original Shared Link contains link to product listing. be great if someone could take a look a confirm if I'm just blind and GLUTEN is clearly...

    At Nandos today I noticed packets of chips that are marked as gluten free. There was a mild one and hot one. Also something I discovered recently is that Red Rooster hot chips seem to be gluten-free by ingredient. They do battered stuff as well so there might be cc there. I was looking at the Mcdonalds Uk site the other night and under the ingredients...

    Yea. I sometimes buy the bayview fish but it's not the same as getting it hot from a shop. What Kind of things did you bring back? I've tried to find out what you can't bring back but the information is rubbish. I've had people bring back bisuits and bready things and all seemed ok.

    It's amazing. I love the crust on the bread rolls. I keep double checking the packet to make sure it says gluten free not guilt free or something simillar. I've even had non gluten-free people ask if "Are your sure, you can have that". I've had the livwell rolls this week, which are also very tasty. They can sometimes be little crumbly and hollow but sitll...

    For anyone who might be travelling to the U.K- While Marks and Spencer don't really have online shopping they do have a list of food that does not contain gluten. It is very extensive and seems to include things like chesse that in most cases would be naturally gluten free. Something else to note- in their stores they don't really have a health food isle...

    Firstly - take me with you please! I'm not sure how many there are but hommus brothers did gluten free the last time I was there. It wasn't anything fancy, but an option, Also alot of places offered jacket potato. La Tasca which is a tapas chain also offered gluten-free. Although I'm not sure about butter/cheese free. Also I'm not super sensitive so...

    I tried the purebred long rolls today. It was fine until about the third mouthful....it was so soft and tasty that I thought I must have grabbed someone elses lunch. I didn't they are just really tasty. I also tried the Livwell naan bread which was perfect with my curry. Will now stop going on about these brands- at least until they bring out something...

    Over here Woolies and Coles are the main two.

    For anyone interested, I have noticed a few Coles stores have started selling Garlic and corriander naan breads from the livwell range. .

    I tried the multigrain pure-bred this week- just as nice as the white. Planning on trying the rolls next - if I can find them. Not sure if everyone is trying them or if they aren't getting a lot of stock but I keep seeing the price tag and a empty shelf in a lot of places. I hope it's because everyone is buying it up.

    Unfortunetly apart from palin fruit and vegetable it is a case of always needing to read a label. There isn't a catagory of food that is always gluten-free, even plain rice should be checked just in case it has been processed on the same line as pasta. There a lot of youghurts that are ok but not labeled. Not sure how new you are to this but even if you...

    I found a new brand of bread in coles. It's called Pure-bred and is made in Ireland. It only comes in a small loaf but I think the slices are slighty bigger than other brands. It costs about $5 Straight out of the packet it has that plasticy look, but once you heat it is nice and soft and doen't crumble. I rekon you could almost moosh it like normal bread...

    In case anyone is super organised, woolworths have started seling gluten-free fruit mince bites and Christmas puddings. The puddings come in a largeish version or two mini ones. they are hiding in amongst all the regular Christmas stuff, which most stores already seem to have shelves of. I found one store which had spread it around, maybe they think we won...

    Yea. Had some for toast this morning and am impressed at how well it came out. It toasted all the way through and the crust didn't go hard. Have also tried it just as a sandwich again, still not sure if I like it better just as bread. Looking foward to trying the fruit loaf though, should make a tasty breakfast if it toasts as well as the multigrain.

    Just tried the new improved (according to packaging) Country Life bread. It seems slightly larger and thicker than before, also a slightly different taste/texture- not sure if I prefer it yet. Either I haven't paid attention the last few times I've bought it or the price has also gone up to $6.70. I know it's only about $1 more but part of the reason...

    There are a few little exceptions. I'm Aus but I think the laws are similar. The wheat could be from glucose syrup and if that's the case then it is gluten free due to the processing method. In Australia gluten free on a label overides any listing of wheat as it means the processing method has removed the gluten. They still declare the wheat though as some...

    I noticed some in one near me the other day, thought it must have been the last of the stock but maybe it was new. Have been saving the ones I had. Not sure what happened but a shame they went out of stock in the cooler months- perfect pie weather.

    Have today found a bunch of gluten-free stuff- Oh so helpfully in the bread and bakery aisle, ( not the fresh bakerey section). I found a box of individual brownies from Cakemark and biscuits and fruit bites from Jon Jon. The fruit bites look the mince pies they put out at Christmas except that they came in apricot or berry. I guess the good thing about them...

    Thanks, sadly I'm in the wrong state. Actaully wondering if Bellyhoo have gone bust, the website is just the logo with a message saying it been updated soon. Be patient with the Crumpets. I think they are only really new and I know that neither them or the muffins were listed on the online store I checked just over a week ago. Have been checking regulary...

    Okay I can't be bothered to quote bits from everyone so here goes: I have seen the woolies gluten-free flour. The store I went to had it in the health food section. I don't mind that they put the bread in the normal bakery section but I do object to the way they move it around the section, the oher brands all manage to stay in the spot. Also put the...

    I had trouble finding them as well. They ended up been stuck on random shelves with the other desserty things. If it was the the Simpy wize ones, they weren't as nice as last year. I think the put less spice in them.
