We make our own bread using Pamela's mix. It's our absolute favorite. I was never able to find a store bought bread that we liked. I'd love to know what the lactose free American cheese is. What is the brand and where did you find it? Thanks!

Kinnikinnik bread isn't too bad, but it's spongy if it's not toasted, so it'd be perfect for grilled cheese.

Whole Foods also has a white bread that's not bad.

You have to look in the frozen food section for both of these breads. Kinnikinnik is only availabe at certain stores (I found one near me from their website) and Whole Foods bread is obviously at Whole Foods. ;)

I like the Tapioca Loaf...I think it's Ener-G brand, but I really can't remember for sure...it's the only tapioca loaf I've ever seen. Kind of expensive, but I grill it on top of the stove and make grilled cheese (I use fake, casein-free cheese), peanut butter/jelly, all kinds of sandwiches (after grilling the slices first), and even French toast. We've liked it pretty well.

The Whole Foods Sandwich Bread has milk in it :(

On the rare occasion I eat bread, I like the Gluten Free Pantry French Bread Mix. It's super simple to make--just mix it up in a big bowl, and bake it in the oven :D

Ener-G Foods' Corn Loaf is gluten, dairy, soy, egg and sugar free. and fantastic. My husband tried an Ener-G foods bread sampler pack and loved Corn Loaf much more than other NRG bread products. He's not even celiac, but avoids gluten to avoid arthritis symptoms. We're lucky in the Seattle area to not only have Ener-G but also a local gluten free bakery/restaurant 'Da Vinci's' whose owner features an 'EDS' (egg, dairy, soy, gluten free) bread which looks like a white bread but tastes great. She sometimes adds sweet potato flour and pecans (my favorite) to her EDS recipes. Kinnikinnick also has some great 'white' breads.

My favorite is the navy bean white bread from Celiac Specialties. Celiac Specialties is based in Michigan, but you can order from there website.

Kinnikinnick white bread is OK when toasted. Otherwise, as someone said above...it tastes like a sponge.

Whole Foods bread is alright. It's fairly thick and is about 500 calories for 2 small slices. I believe it is rice based.

ebrbetty, is it the lactose in dairy that's a problem for you or the casein?

I think it tastes like a good sour dough bread and makes great sandwiches. It's low carb, low calorie and high fiber ... just what I want in a sandwich bread so I can load up on fillings. LOL

Sterks sandwhich bread.

Sterks sandwhich bread.

never heard of it, where do you find it?

Carriefaith Enthusiast

Sterk's is hard to find. I used to be able to buy it in health food stores on Prince Edward Island.

I did a search on google and found this:

Go to breads, buns and mixes and then look for Sterk's Sandwich bread. It should be on the second page.

PEI is beautiful, with probably some of the nicest beaches in North America. Are you talking about Anne of Green Gables?

I tried grilled cheese with the Kinnikinnik... I thought it was disgusting... shoulda put tomato or something on it to flavor it a little... I'm soooo looking forward to getting my bread from gfbreadbasket... I heard on here that it is waaaaay better than what we're used to tasting in our gluten-free bread...

Robina Contributor

Got my order from gluten free breadbasket today... I bought the country white bread, crusty rolls, bagels and bread crumbs...

Tested out a slice of the country white with peanut butter... toasted... and it's not too bad... I mean it's not as tasty as regular glutenous breads obviously but it will do the job... the texture and taste of this bread is the closest to regular bread as I've tried... it is definitely waaaaay better than the different brands I've tried... including Kinickkinicks or whatever the heck it's called... anyway I'm trying out a crusty roll tonight when the family has italian sausage sandwiches...

      Hi I just wanted to update you all and let you know that I finally have my diagnosis. 2 weeks ago I had my third gastroscopy and the biopsy confirmed the damage. Thank you for giving me the information I needed to advocate for myself when I a was a feeling so lost!
    • Scott Adams
      I agree that the gastritis may go away after you've been on a gluten-free diet for a while. If you are concerned, it might make sense for you to do a follow up biopsy after  a year or so on a gluten-free diet. This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      Getting tested for celiac disease is a valid concern, especially given your history of microscopic colitis and the potential risks associated with undiagnosed celiac disease, such as cross-contamination, nutrient malabsorption, and increased cancer risk. Since you’ve been gluten-free for years, reintroducing gluten for the standard celiac blood tests or endoscopy would be challenging, as it requires consuming gluten for several weeks to months, which could worsen your symptoms and disrupt your daily life. Gene testing (HLA-DQ2 and HLA-DQ8) through a lab like EnteroLab could be a helpful first step. While these genes are present in nearly all celiac patients, having them doesn’t confirm celiac disease—it only indicates genetic susceptibility. If you don’t have these genes, celiac disease is highly unlikely, which could provide some peace of mind. However, if you do have the genes, it doesn’t confirm celiac disease but suggests further testing might be warranted if you’re willing to undergo a gluten challenge. Another option is to discuss with your doctor whether a follow-up endoscopy or other non-invasive tests (like stool tests for gluten antibodies) could provide insights without requiring a gluten challenge. While a formal celiac diagnosis can be important for ensuring strict dietary adherence, access to gluten-free options in hospitals, and monitoring for complications, it’s also worth weighing the risks and benefits of reintroducing gluten. If you’re already strictly gluten-free and managing your symptoms well, the urgency of a formal diagnosis may depend on your personal health goals and concerns. Consulting a gastroenterologist familiar with celiac disease and Microscopic Colitis can help guide your decision.
