Any Problems With Whole Foods Gluten Free Bakehouse Line?


Jen H

Recommended Posts

Jen H Contributor

I suspect I was glutened from the Whole Foods white sandwich bread I've been eating. I've been keeping a log, and over the past 6 days I've had toast 4 times. Within 2-3 hours I've been horribly sick. On the days when I didn't eat the toast, I was starting to feel better. I know they have a dedicated bakery, but I suspect I've been glutened from this loaf of bread. Have you had any problems?

Hi Jen,

I'm sorry you had problems with that bread - that must be so frustrating. I haven't tried it yet, so I don't know how it is going to affect me. When I do, I'll try to come back here and let you know.

I had trouble after eating toast (different kind of bread) and I wondered if I should have gotten myself a new toaster, free of all the crumbs and gluten that may be baked into the sides and so forth. Awful thought, but a reality. What did you put on your toast? Could it be that?

Jen--I also had problems with that bread. In my case, I didn't think the problem was gluten. There is dairy and tapioca in it, and I have determined that I'm sensitive to those, as well as grains. Could there be an ingredient in the bread that you are reacting to? Just a thought :)

I have to avoid almost all of their stuff due to diary. Not to mention it has a lot of fat and sugar. But the stuff I can (and have) had hasn't been a problem for me.

I've never had the bread. I do LOVE their cherry almond muffins. I have not had any trouble with them. Possibly you have some other intollerances?

Hi guys,

thanks for writing back. I have been tested for food allergies and the only thing that came up as an intolerance was soy. That's not in the bread. I have a dedicated toaster, so I don't think that's it either. I've been raking my brain and can't seem to discover what it is about the bread. Everything else I've been eating is also gluten free, so I don't know what it is. So frustration though.... I"ll keep searching

I'm guessing that you didn't eat dry plain toast. What did you put on your toast? Butter, jelly, peanutbutter? was it contaminated? Did it contain soy ? Just a thought.

      Do the skin care products that give you a rash list wheat as an ingredient or are you assuming from your reaction that they contain gluten? It is possible that not only do you have celiac disease, which is not an allergy but an autoimmune disorder, but that you also have a wheat allergy.

      Thank you, I’m very happy to be here!! Yes, lately I get rashes and itching when I accidentally use topical skin products with gluten in them. I got a bad rash around my hairline after unknowingly using glutenous hairspray, and a near-full-body rash with a sea salt spray that I guess I rinsed off insufficiently in the shower. Neither looked like typical dermatitis herpetiformis to me based on the posts I’ve read here—both were just large patches, red and slightly raised, with no blisters to speak of. At least yet. The sea salt spray was used yesterday and I noticed the itching this morning, with the rash forming obviously by this afternoon and evening.

      Thanks so much for your thorough reply! I was able to schedule with the local pediatric gastroenterologist who specializes in celiac but we have to wait 3 months to see her.

      Sorry, meant to type "or dermatitis herpetiformis for short". What? Every time I try it, the abbreviation for this skin condition is converted to the full length term. I'm trying to type "D" followed by "H".

      Welcome to the forum, allis! By "skin response to gluten products" are you saying you develop a rash when you use lotions, creams, shampoos, etc. that contain gluten? One of the classical symptoms of celiac disease is a skin rash known as dermatitis herpetiformis or "dermatitis herpetiformis" for short. Celiac disease is the only known cause for dermatitis herpetiformis. It has a distinct appearance. It has little blisters or pustules in the bumps. Does this sound like what you experience? Is so, it might be possible to get a punch biopsy done when you are having an outbreak. This would be an alternative to eating gluten. If your skin biopsy was positive for dermatitis herpetiformis you could be diagnosed with celiac disease on that basis alone. Apart from that, I know of no other way to get a diagnosis apart from returning to eating gluten for a period of weeks.
