I know www.vitacost.com sells some. but i was wondering where else sells it online that people like (where people have had good expereinces ordering from).
thank you Posted by Cobweb (Member # 10053) on :
Trader Joe's, Nature's Best, and Whole Foods-also our local Giant grocery store now sells rice pasta, and some other gluten free foods in a special pantry area.
I look at Celiac.com-but have not been able to get it together to order on line.

Sorry- just realized you were asking for online sites. Well, hope someone else with experience with that comes along.
If the problem is that you can't get out to shop, some of the stores I mentioned deliver.

You could try ordering from Ancient Harvest for quinoa. It seems like a grain, but it is actually a vegetable, related to the spinach family.
I know you asked for online but wanted to mention that Trader Joe's just started carrying a pancake/waffle mix that's great tasting!

would you believe i went to my 1st celiac support group meeting tonight in HY-VEE DELI'S grocery store? they have a lot of gluten-free there.
program was on eating out and what types of restaurants NOW carry gluten, etc.
i got a few pages of hilights.. .
we sampled 3 boxed things; can;t remember names right now, will bring my notes back here to pc tomorrow during daylight hours!
i don't order any online things; actually, i've only bought gluten free 4-5 tiems since it's so damn expensive $$$$ and most is NOT TASTY! Posted by Keebler (Member # 12673) on :

I find many of the gluten free foods are cookies or cakes - still basic sugar the moment they hit my mouth - and many contain corn which I avoid.
Going with the grains you can buy in more places and they are a complex carbohydrate.
Gluten free grains include millet, buckwheat (really a legume), wild rice (really a grass), many types of brown and black rices, quinoa (keen-wa) - which need rinsing before cooking and red quinoa which does not.
Amaranth may be gluten free, too, but I don't recall.
Teff and spelt contain gluten.
- If you use soy sauce, many are made with wheat, but you can find wheat free tamari.

There are now wonderful brown rice pastas in penne or curly ques. Trader Joe's carries some and other stores or web sites carry Tinkyada brand (in regular and organic).

We have been eating gluten free for a while and I recommend Bob's Red Mill products. There is a gluten free line that is really very good. I have been able to find them in certain stores like Whole Foods but they have a website as well.
More and more large groceries offer gluten free products now, they are getting easier to find.
I recommend the book "Gluten free girl" by Shauna Ahern. Lots of great reading, ideas and even easy recipes.

That is absolutely true!!! Such a disappointment to me when I was first dxd!
Everything contains so much sugar and of course the breads can still be counterproductive if you have yeast issues.
Yes, Bob's Red Mill has good products and they can often be found in regular grocery stores.
For now, I'm avoiding all grain. I do better that way.

I get much of my stuff from HyVee, but I doubt you have those up in the North East. Stuff that we use a lot of, I buy in bulk from Amazon. Much of their stuff has free shipping and is a better price that I can get at the store.
