Gluten/wheat allergy

[Judy Trickett]

I eat GF as well. Wheat and I just don't agree with one another.

Here are some better tasting brands of stuff:

Kinnickinnik - has some new "soft" breads and buns. I haven't gotten my hands on the bread yet but have tried some of the buns and they were really quite good.
Udi's - best buns, IMO if you are heating or toasting them for warm sandwich or garlic bread
Glutino Genius Bread - the slices are small but it holds up pretty well and tastes pretty good
Pamela's - chocolate cookies. VERY good and rich, chocolatey taste
Kinnickinnick - their "Oreo" cookies are a very close match
Glutino - their crackers are very good, much like water crackers
Pamela's - most of the baking mixes are pretty good as well
GoGo Qunioa - best pasta, hands down, IMO. Most people can not tell the difference from real pasta
Annie's - their boxed rice mac and cheese is VERY good. Most of the Annies GF stuff is good.

Costco also has GF crackers, an all-purpose flour blend, granola, etc. I find they are coming out with more GF stuff.

Here is also a recipe for a GF flour mix that you can pretty much substitute cup for cup with real flour:

1 Cup Arrowroot Powder
1 Cup Very Fine White Rice Flour
1 Cup Potato Starch (not potato flour)
½ Cup Tapioca Starch
½ Cup Buckwheat Flour
4 tsp. Xanthan Gum

Watch for wheat in things like soy sauce and other sauces and gravies or anything with flavouring packets included (liked boxed rices). Most things fried at fast food restaurants etc are in the same deep fryer as other wheat based foods. So, french fries are fried with chicken nuggets and therefore the fries are now contaminated. Wheat is in just about everything.
