Kinnikinnick

I read here so many people buying from Kinnikinnick.

I went to the website and found that they are not compatible with Mac computers. They say you can use a basic version but I found that I could not. It wouldn't allow me to do anything.

Quite amazing. I have had a Mac for years and years and never encountered a website I couldn't use. Too bad. Sounds like they make good stuff.

Anyone else share my disappointment? :( Claire

Check your local health food store. Alot carry the kinnikinnick bread. If they don't they may order it in for you. Having said that the only way it is at all edible is toasted. I does make good BLT's

Claire,

I just ordered from it today and some of it is pretty good. Here's their toll free number- I bet they'll let you do a phone order.

Call Us Toll Free:

1-877-503-4466

If you need help with the items, i don't mind if you p.m me and i can tell you what they have.

The bagels, donuts, pizza crust, bread and chocolate chip cookies are great. Cinnamon raisin bagels are NOT tasty.

Is the cinnamon raisin bread decent? I just ordered some... I hope it's not gross. Someone on here suggested trying the English Muffins instead of the buns, because I thought the buns were like a hockey puck.

I like the cinnamon raisin bagels too. I don't care for the tapioca cinnamon raisin bread though. It is sliced too thin and burns easily. I am also not happy with the texture. I love so many of the other foods they make that I can live without the cinnamon raisin bread. I want to try the festive bread, but I don't think it is late enough in the fall for them to start making it.

I was disappointed with my last order. My friend and I purchased a total of 7 bags of bagels, and they were ALL out of stock, so they didn't send ANY! So I have been anxiously waiting to place my next order. I want a bagel badly...

They do take phone orders too.

God bless,

Mariann

Our local health store just starting with gluten free foods. Likewise local Giant. No Kinnikinnick anything, Whole Foods may have something - will see when I go again. I don't care about bread/ Woud; like to find a good scone.

I didn't care for the cinnamon raisin bagels. I didn't try their cinnamon bread. I really like the tapioca rice bread. The pieces are large and thinly sliced. Great for my kids who have loose teeth. My kids prefer it slightly toasted. The donuts are great. We add frosting. I think it's Pillsbury double chocolate that we're using. If you find what you like at Kinnikinnick, order tons to save on shipping. Shipping is a flat $10 fee for each order up to $200. It's best to do it that way and keep the extras in a freezer. I have an extra freezer in the garage for this reason.

Warning: The worse pizza crust I've ever (in my life)had was from the gluten free pantry.

If you know someone with a computer or go to public library where they have public computers or internet cafe(?) go to website and download an order form and review site to see what you want to order, write it down on order form and mail into/fax into or call into Kinni's for an order....

Their Italian bread is really good--so much better than Energie's (which feels like sawdust in your mouth). I like Kinninnicks made into sandwiches/am real pleased with it. Barbara

My local (southern california) Whole Foods does carry some Kinnikinnick stuff. Check the freezer section. Also, some WF's now carry some of their own gluten-free bakery goods. I'm pretty sure they had gluten-free scones.

Claire, we have Whole Foods down here in Dallas. They have a GREAT Gluten-Free line of bakery items. If I remember correctly, they have cranberry scones. You might ask about them next time you're in.

I haven't had them as I have an aversion to eating things shaped in a triangle. :D

      Impossible to get diagnosis?

      By trents · Posted

      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.

      Impossible to get diagnosis?

      By allis · Posted

      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".

      By trents · Posted

      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.
