I just read on a website that they will be priced at $4.49.

Does anyone know if they are out in stores yet? All the websites say June 2009. It's June 2nd.. I know I'm impatient.

Now I am dissapointed. I was hoping that they would be cheaper than that. I can get other mixes for that price. Hopefully that price won't stay that high for long!

I haven't seen them at Meijer; will be looking at Kroger's tonight. I don't think 4.49 is all that bad; I forget what the Gluten Free Pantry's yellow cake mix was, but honestly I'd pay more if the Betty Crocker tastes better than the GFP one. That mix produced a horrible, dry cake and was only one layer! If Betty Crocker's mixes make a 2 layer cake, that right there is a better bargain than a gluten free mix that only makes one layer.

Agreed, if it makes a 2 layer cake, it's not a bad price. If it's just enough mix for one layer, not so much. I'm curious to see how it tastes though.....so I'll buy it at least once just to try it out. No signs of it here in Texas yet, but we also just got the Honey Nut Chex, so I'm guessing it will be a while.

If I remember correctly, an earlier thread in March, said they only make 1 layer :(

Yep, one layer. Not such a great price.

I'm reviewing it on the other thread I started.:)

I paid $3.99. Even if you must pay more, it's worth it. The cookies are really good!

I found the mixes today!! Krogers in College Station tx had them. They were out of the cookie mix, but i got 2 cake mixes and 1 brownie mix. They were $4.19 a piece, and only make 1 layer. I am really dissapointed by that. I hope the prices come down to match the regular cake mixes! I will make the cake tomorrow (it's my dd's bday) and let yall know!

The mix made 12 large cookies, like the size you would get at a bakery (I like to make them big). I just had two for breakfast. They are still soft the next day! Gluten free cookies tend to get crumbly the next day (in my opinion) and these did not!

I found the chocolate chip cookie mix at Wegman's in Pennsylvania. Price was 3.99...makes 24 average size cookies(aka ChipsAhoy size). We made 12 cookies and saved the other half of the batter to test how the dough holds up frozen and baked at another time. They were really good. A little crumbly the next day, but still taste great. I'm excited to try the other mixes when I can find them. We make a lot from scratch, but it's nice to have more mixes available when in a pinch.

We have not found them here in Miami, Florida. I have spoken to several Publix Grocery managers and they all said that it was up to the distribution wharehouse to decide when the stores get them. So I emailed the Publix headquarters and asked them. I will post if and when I hear form them as to when the mixes will be available.

I checked 2 major stores last night (Idaho) and couldn't find them yet...but W-mart moved their gluten-free products to the baking aisle. They also finally had 3 of the Chex cereals that say gluten-free on the box. Things are lookin' up ;)

Hi - saw all the notes on Betty Crocker mixes....does anyone know if they are egg free (do you have to use an egg to mix), and soy free?????? Boy, I just starated out on gluten free about 4 weeks ago and it surely is a hit and miss for me.

I just found out thru "Matt....."that Kellogs Rice Krispies I gather is not glutten free. I now bought Glutten Free Rice Chex....does anyone know if their okay???? Ingredients looks okay, but I've learned that's the usually the whole story. I am also am trying to find a chicken broth, (yes I know I should make, but prefer not to)....just plain broth, no soy, no egg, etc.??????

I bought the tapioco light bread at a health food store, it last almost year (unopened) will go back and buy a bunch and have on hand (not close by)........

Wow, this is really something to try and switch your entire eating over to another source particularly w/the egg, soy, dairy, and gluten no go's. Any help would be appreciated.

d

oats are okay for me, any ideas for making oakmeal cookies w/o an egg?

Thanks in advance!

Peace.....the best gluten/soy free chicken stock I have found is natural Kitchen Basics brand. I buy the 8 oz. boxes, although they come in larger 32 ounce boxes also. They sell chicken, beef, and vegetable stock, all gluten/soy free. The flavor is excellent. The chicken stock consists of: chicken stock, chicken flavor, sea salt, honey, vegetable stocks (carrot, onion, mushroom,celery),bay, thyme, pepper. It is labeled gluten free. I'm able to purchase this brand at a Kroger (Fry's) Supermarket....other supermarkets in this area do not carry this brand, so I usually wipe out the stock that is on the shelf,but always leave 1 for another customer. I figure this is my way of guaranteeing that they will always sell this brand!

Rachael Ray also has a gluten/soy free beef stock, and Walmart also carries a soy/gluten free beef stock, their own brand and a soy/gluten free chicken stock that has milk in it!

If I remember correctly, Rice Krispies has malt in it....I made the mistake of buying it about a year ago and it made me sick. I forgot to read the ingredients!! Rice Chex is gluten free, but I've noticed that the price has gone up quite a bit...even in WalMart, so I have stopped buying it.

The rice chex labeled gluten-free are gluten-free.

You should try out the tapioca bread before you stock up on it. IMO, it tastes like cardboard. And it is cheaper to make your own bread.

Oats are NOT ok for a Celiac. They are often grown in a field with wheat and processed on the same equipment as wheat. but if you are getting the gluten-free oats, then that is fine.

There are plenty of egg substitues out there.

The betty crocker mixes do use eggs, but you may be able to use an egg substitute. But they do have soy in them as well.

One tip is to watch for gluten-free/vegan products and recipes...no gluten, egg, dairy...but some may have soy. My dd eats soy so I have not looked for soy free. You will lean alot on here in a short time ;)

Today I purchased BC cake mixes.....they use 3 eggs, and butter. I'm also allergic to dairy and soy so will try the cake mix with Spectrum. Cookie and brownie mix have soy in them, and the cake mixes say "may contain soy ingredients". Oh well, I'm happy making my own from scratch recipes and Namaste products have worked out very well for me.

Bought them here in Utah for $4.49. Yellow mix only so far. Went home and cooked it up and...

Don't know what I did wrong, but very gritty! Taste and texture just fine, but gritty, like something didn't mix well (I've run into this using course rice flour, so maybe that's the problem). I'm curious to see if anyone else has had this problem.

      Confused with test results

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      There is plenty of gluten food that is unplatable also. The trouble in restaurants is that wheat,  like the Frank's Hot Sauce commercial; "They throw that bleep on everything." In my opinion, the underlying problem is compromised immune system due to vitamin D deficiency and Green Revolution modern wheat.  50% of the industrialized world are vitamin D deficient and we are urged to avoid sun and limit oral vitamin D intake to the minimum.   Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity became an official diagnosis only 10 years after modern wheat was marketed.

      I understand from one of our forum moderators who is UK-based that the benefits of having an official celiac diagnosis varies depending on your postal code. So then, it must be a benefit tied to local government rather than national government.

      I think if I gave up gluten and got a negative blood result and stick with it rather than do the gluten challenge (even though I’ve got no symptoms.. yet).  think if I gave up gluten and got a negative blood result and stick with it rather than do the gluten challenge (even though I’ve got no symptoms.. yet).

      Obviously, you have looked at all this from various angles and I respect that. But consider this, you could trial the gluten-free diet for six months to see if it results in lower ttg-iga scores. If so, it is another piece of evidence pointing to celiac disease. You could then go off the gluten fast and return to a gluten loaded diet for weeks or months and repeat the colonoscopy/endoscopy. My point is that trialing a gluten-free diet does not eliminate the possibility of getting valid celiac retesting at a late date if you are willing to engage with the gluten challenge.
