Great Sandwich Bread

I don't often sign up to post about a product, but this is an exception. Yesterday we stopped by the Krogers in Willis Texas. We picked up a loaf of Gluten Free Houston's sandwich bread in an orange colored wrapper. I could not believe how good this bread was. The bread is in the frozen section but after thawing a piece in the microwave it was soft and the crust was even good. It was as close to regular gluten white sandwich bread as any breads we had tried so for and believe me we have tried a bunch (and thrown away a bunch). The slices are bigger then Udi's so it can make a full size sandwich and it is better tasting then Udi's which is now our second favorite bread. Udi's is good but mainly as a toast but Gluten Free Houston's bread is good just plain. I hope this company expands into buns like Udi's has because they are doing bread great!

Thanks Hootie,

I googled it and you can order it online. I don't know if they ship frozen or not. I don't see that listed. International shipping is almost $30 so it's a no go for me but anyone in the states interested in trying it you can order it here...

Along with some of their other products. Enjoy

Good to know! I also agree about Udi's and toast. Yum!

Update on my above post.

I made my post before checking to see if Gluten Free Houston had a web site. After making my post I looked for their site and they did indeed have a site.

They had everything a celiac person could ask for. So we decided to drive over today. We met the founders of the company and they are really nice people. We proceeded to load up on the goodies.

We bought more sandwich bread, dinner rolls, hot dog buns, hamburger buns, chicken pot pies, mini carrot cake muffins, vanilla pound cake, blue berry muffins, and cookies. We are full from taste testing, but have found everything to be excellent and worth the trip. The carrot cake minis are to die for. I was so impressed with everything I ordered my wife an Italian cream cake for her upcoming birthday which is one of her favorites.

I picked up her cake Thursday and it was a big hit for everyone. No one could tell that it was Gluten Free. It quickly disappeared and was enjoyed by everyone.

Wow!! Thank you for the info Hootie!!

Good to know, as I have only tried one rice bread and hated it!

I will definitely look for this bread from Gluten Free Houston or order on their website.

Also, the "Against the Grain" company makes a FANTASTIC Baguette.

Best "hero" bread I've had AND it's great as a side with Italian..

Find it. Order it. Love it.

      Hello,   I contacted the makers of Alpine Original Spiced Cider Drink Mix and they sent me this email.....   Subject: [EXTERNAL] Fw: Ref.

      Family education

      By trents · Posted

      @Rogol72, dermatitis herpetiformis occurs in a minority of celiac patients and if the OP hasn't developed it yet I doubt it will show up in the future. I think it unwise to use a scare tactic that probably won't materialize in the OP's experience. It has a good chance of backfiring and having the opposite effect.

      Hi @trents, You're correct. The OP mentioned fatigue and vitamin deficiencies as the only symptoms at the time of diagnosis. Since the family are not taking him/her seriously and find them to be too fussy, I suggested showing them pictures of dermatitis herpetiformis as one of the consequences of not taking the gluten-free diet seriously ... would make life easier for him/her, and the family might begin to take his/her strict gluten-free diet more seriously. A picture says a thousand words and the shock factor of dermatitis herpetiformis blisters might have the desired effect. The OP did say ... "How do you deal with people close to you who just refuse to understand? Are there any resources anyone could recommend for families that are short and easy to read?".  @sillyyak52, It might also help mentioning to your family that Coeliac Disease is genetic and runs in families. Any one of them could develop it in the future if they have the HLA DQ 2.5 gene. Here's a Mayo Clinic study calling for screening of family members of Coeliacs ... https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-minute-celiac-disease-screening-for-family-members/ https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-study-calls-for-screening-of-family-members-of-celiac-disease-patients/ I got glutened a few months ago because I missed the may contains statement on a tub of red pesto. It was my own fault but it happens.
