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.

      Bitters for digestion?

      This sounds to me like histamine intolerance. Some foods have more or less histamine. processed or aged meats, fermented food like yoghurt or kimchi and bread (yeast), spinach, eggplant and mushroom are high in histamine. Other foods like tomatoes are histamine liberators, they encourage your mast cells to release histamine, which can also trigger the reactions...

      Why Bananas No Longer Cure Celiac Disease

      I missed this article when it was first put up. It is interesting to read, as my old neighbour who sadly passed away a few years ago was a trainee midwife during WWII. Bananas disappeared from the shops in Britain during the war, but she told me that those that did get to the UK were kept back for infants with coeliac disease. I didn't realise that...

      @GeoPeanut, milk is one of the better sources of iodine. Iodine is known to exacerbate dermatitis herpetiformis. Many people find that a low iodine diet helps them avoid dermatitis herpetiformis outbreaks. So, maybe the fact that you have limited your dairy intake of late is helping with that.

      Hi, I'm new here. Sorry for your troubles.herenis a thought to mull over. I recently was diagnosed with celiac disease, and hashimoto's and dermatitis herpetiformis after getting covid 19. I eat butter, and 1/2 cup of Nancy's yogurt daily. I stopped all other dairy and dermatitis herpetiformis is gone! I also make grass fed beef bone broth to help with...

      Celiac or Addison's complications? Can someone share their experience?

      Welcome to the forum, @KRipple! Sorry to hear of all your husband's health problems. I can only imagine how anxious this makes you as when our spouse suffers we hurt right along with them. Can you post the results from the Celiac blood testing for us to look at? We would need the names of the tests run, the numeric results and (this is important...

      This sounds to me like histamine intolerance. Some foods have more or less histamine. processed or aged meats, fermented food like yoghurt or kimchi and bread (yeast), spinach, eggplant and mushroom are high in histamine. Other foods like tomatoes are histamine liberators, they encourage your mast cells to release histamine, which can also trigger the reactions you describe, flu like symptoms, joint pain, urinary tract irritation, rash, stomach upset, nausea, diarrhoea & fatigue. I had liver pain like you describe, as part of the intolerance is usually a sluggish liver that makes processing all the histamine difficult. There are multiple possible root causes of histamine intolerance, usually it’s a symptom of something else. In my case, leaky gut (damaged gut wall)caused by undiagnosed celiac, but for others it’s leaky gut caused by other things like dysbiosis. Some people also experience histamine intolerance due to mould exposure or low levels of DAO (the enzyme that breaks down histamine in the gut). I’d try a low histamine diet & if that doesn’t improve symptoms fully, try low oxalate too. As others have suggested, supplements like vitamin d, b, l-glutamine to support a healthy gut & a good liver support supplement too. If you’re in a histamine flare take vitamin c to bowel tolerance & your symptoms will calm down (avoid if you find you have oxalate intolerance though). Best of luck

      Welcome to the forum, @KRipple! Sorry to hear of all your husband's health problems. I can only imagine how anxious this makes you as when our spouse suffers we hurt right along with them. Can you post the results from the Celiac blood testing for us to look at? We would need the names of the tests run, the numeric results and (this is important) the reference ranges for each test used to establish high/low/negative/positive. Different labs use different rating scales so this is why I ask for this. There aren't industry standards. Has your husband seen any improvement from eliminating gluten from his diet? If your husband had any positive results from his celiac blood antibody testing, this is likely what triggered the consult with a  GI doc for an endoscopy. During the endoscopy, the GI doc will likely biopsy the lining of the small bowel lining to check for the damage caused by celiac disease. This would be for confirmation of the results of the blood tests and is considered the gold standard of celiac disease diagnosis. But here is some difficult information I have for you. If your husband has been gluten free already for months leading up to the endoscopy/biopsy, it will likely invalidate the biopsy and result in a false negative. Starting the gluten free diet now will allow the lining of the small bowel to begin healing and if enough healing takes place before the biopsy happens, there will be no damage to see. How far out is the endoscopy scheduled for? There still may be time for your husband to go back on gluten, what we call a "gluten challenge" to ensure valid test results.

      Are they close to a drug that will help celiacs with cross contamination

      By kate g · Posted

      Ive read articles that there is stage 2 research being conducted for drugs that will limit damage to celiacs through cross contamination- how close are they to this will there be enough funding to create a mainstream drug?
