Bread

[Guest guest]

What bread can I buy at the local store for my daughter.

[Guest guest]

In Michigan you can buy a few varieties of the Ener-G breads at Kroger. I've also found mixes at Meijer that you can bake yourself (and one for brownies).

What bread can I buy at the local store for my daughter.

[Guest guest]

I like the mix from Made By Mona....either the Honey or the Goddess

breads....mmmmm...it is very good 'white' bread (actually both are sort of beige

colored) I like the Manna From too, to me it's VERY much like wheat bread

which I prefer, but it's made from bean flour and we can't handle too much of

it! ;-) The MBM breads are a nice happy medium between white bread and wheat.

MBM also has THE BEST cake mix out there. I've made cupcakes out of it and WOW.

I honestly cannot tell the difference between this and " real " cake.

My son is 3, was diagnosed last June at 2 1/2 (I cannot believe it's only been

less than a year...seems like we've been doing this forever!!) and he likes the

cupcakes for snack, and he also likes crackers (we use Blue Diamond Nut Thins or

we just found Back To Nature cheese crackers that are excellent) and cheese.

Trail mix with peanuts, cashews, craisins (he will not eat raisins, but LOVES

craisins), the Environkidz rice crispy bars (peanut butter and chocolate are his

two favorites) I guess tell us what you usually do for snacks, and I bet we

can come up wiht some great " mocks " or even just specific brands that actually

are ok.

For our little one and snacks I give her popcorn, caramel corn, fresh fruit, rice cakes(the flavored ones are her favorite), fruit snacks, yogurt, chips, lots of different candies, rice cereal treats made from Fruity Pebbles, marshmallows, GF cookies, and nuts. One thing I found is that I had to start of with thinking of things she could not have but then I had to change my thinking to things she could have! Once I changed my focus it made it a fun challenge to find things she could have. Our doctor advised us pretty early on to not look at what she can have but what she can have. It really made a difference in her attitude as well.

Our older children are not on the GF diet so for the times they have treats she cannot have we have special ones that she can that are at least as good if not better than theirs. They are 11 and 14 so they understand why it has to be that way and they also enjoy finding things for her.

I hope that these ideas help.

Theorhetically they are GF (except a couple flavors...the butter toffee and a nacho or bbq one, I can't remember) but they do have cross-contamination risk as they are made with non-gf things...and I think it goes about 50-50 people who have problems with them and people who don't (at least that's my best guess from posts I've seen) Orville Redenbacher makes popcorn cakes, a fairly similar product and usually located in the same space as the quaker ones.

Don't feel bad, I feel lost now too when shopping and I used to love going to the store...now I dread it and I'm lucky if I go once every two weeks where before I was there every other day. I just send my daughter to pick up necessities most of the time now. And I tend to buy mostly fresh vegies and meats and cheese and milk... then I buy my foods either on line or the health food store or somewhere that I know I can get stuff marked GF.

Yes, I've eaten the Orville Redenbacher ones without any problems and that's what I mixed up when I accidently bought the Quaker one in the same flavor... I'm not as sensitive when it comes to cross-contamination as some but for some reason the Quaker brand hit me hard!! April, if you find a brand that is found to be GF and your little one tolerates well just be sure to note which one it is stick to that. Also Remember to keep an eye on the label and ingredients as they may change.

April,

I think my son must be super sensitive with a few products. We have to

be real careful. After being gf over a year now, we have had to delete

fruity pebbles, cocoa pebbles, and dyno bites from his diet. He really

gets out of control if he gets even a little of these cereals. Does

anyone else see a difference in a small child who eats these cereals?

Please let me know as I really want to try something he will actually

eat that he likes as well. You have lots of great input.

I had used both the caramel and apple ones and she did okay but when I learned of the artificial sweetner I decided not to give them to her at all! I had called on them and was told they were okay at one point in the past year.

Lauretta--If your son is having a behavioral reaction after eating these cereals, it is most likely caused by the artificial color, flavor, or preservative BHT, whichever is added to the cereal. This is a VERY common response to "artificials", but most parents chalk it up to normal kid behavior, or don't even notice it at all, much less are observant enough to connect it to the food their child ate. It's wonderful you noticed his responses and were able to realize they were food related! Marilyn

All the bags of cereal I have at home are safe. I'm trying to get my hands on more of them for the future. According to Malt-O-Meal, this change will happen in 3-4 months, but the production of the "new" cereal additive has not occured yet. Atleast this is what I was told.

The Fruity and Cocoa Pebbles do not list any of the gluten sources and as a

Kraft product they say they will list them clearly. There is no Malt

flavorings or anything. They are a lifesaver for my daughter!

What about Safeway's version of the cocoa pebbles? Are they safe?

Thanks,

[Guest guest]

I rushed out to Safeway and read the ingredients for both Fruity and Cocoa Pebbles and you are right, they are GF. This is wonderful. When my sons were diagnosed at the beginning of this year, I called all the major cereal brands and asked for their GF cereal list. I was given mis information because I was told that they did not have any cereal that was GF. When I found Malt-o-Meal brand, I never bothered to look at the Fruity and Cocoa Pebbles again. I guess even at 4 months into their GF diet, I have a lot to learn. I read all labels, but when I'm told that a product is not GF, I have not questioned it. You learn something new every day. Thanks for the information.

Are most caramels, ie. the caramels used for caramel apples sold in the stores GF? I don't think so, but haven't checked it out yet. Marvin and Bjorge wrote:

I have heard somewhere that Brachs is not GF and I am not sure of the others. She has started eating okay and has started trusting food again so I do not want her to have problems. I wish that candy companies would not put flours in their candies when it really isn't necessary. but I am also soooo thankful for companies that have some great options! When I do get caught with out any treats for her somewhere we promise her a trip to the store for a Snickers and she is happy again!
