What's New at Udi's GF?

After being GF for over 4 1/2 years, I decided recently (after creating this blog) to get myself back into GF breads.  GF bread was the one product I didn't care for.  I didn't like the taste, or the texture.  Most of the breads I tried (and I tried a lot) were heavy in weight, not fluffy like regular bread.  It always tasted more like an appetizer rather then a sandwich.  So I gave it up...

Then Katz GF sent me some breads and my gf life had changed.  It was fantastic!  I decided to embark on GF bread after all...

Then a few months ago I kept hearing about Udi's bread.  Udi's bread in the blog world, press reviews and more.  I went everywhere, and boy oh boy Udi...you are hard to find.  It's not available in the health food stores near me, nor was it available at the time at Westerly market in nyc.  It was hit or miss at Whole Foods, and then one day I landed myself a bag.  SCORE!

I took it home and opened up the bag.  It smelled great.  It was squishy and light.  Spongy like other gluten breads.  I had already known it was going to taste amazing because of all the great reviews, and the reviews were spot on.  FANTASTIC.  I now always have a bag of their bread in my freezer.  And they have many Breads like Multi-Grain and White Sandwich Bread Loaf.  Besides breads, Udi's has a great Plain Bagel (I love their bagels) and Udi's also produces Muffins and Rolls like Cinnamon Rolls, Blueberry Muffins, Double Chocolate Muffins and Lemon Streusel Muffins (I have only found their muffins at Christina's Market in East Norwich, Long Island.  And last but not least GF Granola and GF Pizza Crusts.

After a day or too it is best to store your gf bread in the freezer.

Most recently I was browsing the website and came across the "new products" tab.  Yay!! Udi' you have done it again! New GF Products perfect for my lifestyle.

Coming soon are the following New Products:

Cinnamon Raisin Bread
Cinnamon Raisin Bagel
Whole Grain Bagel

Udi's products are not only GF, but Soy Free, Dairy Free and Nut Free.  Free of the top allergens and exquisite in taste.

If you are new or old to the gluten-free lifestyle adults and children will LOVE Udi's gf products!!

Enjoy!

Magnolia Bakery-Cream Cheese Frosting

Another amazing frosting recipe from Magnolia!  I swear by these recipes, this is my go-to book for icing when I bake!! 1 pound (two 8-ounce packages) cream cheese, softened and cut into small pieces 6 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened and cut into small pieces 1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract 5 cups sifted confectioners' sugar In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth, about 3 minutes.  Add the vanilla and beat well.  Gradually add the sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating continuously until smooth and creamy.  Cover and refrigerate icing for 2-3 hours, but no longer, to thicken before using. Makes enough for one 2-or 3-layer 9-inch cake Enjoy! xoxo Julie www.goodiegoodiegluten-free.blogspot.com  

Not All Advil Is Gluten-Free!!!

After last night's POST , GF Advil was on my mind and I decided to call Advil/Pfizer this morning to get some more clarification.  In response to my post last night I advised through the website that Advil Liqui-gels, Advil Migraine and Advil Liqui-Gels PM contain a wheat derivative.  After my phone call with a lovely representative I received more information. - ALL ADVIL LIQUI-GELS contain a wheat derivative .   ALL LIQUI-GELS.  So stop these immediately if you are taking the Liqui-gels.  You maybe getting sick from a medication rather then a food and this is so important to recognize!  Just steer clear of Liqui-Gels. -ALL FORMS OF ADVIL MIGRAINE contain gluten .  There is no further information if it is just the Liqui-Gels or the Tablets, Caplets and Gel-Caps.  Pfizer does not have this info therefore they informed me to steer clear of all Advil Migraine pills. Here is what IS GLUTEN-FREE FROM ADVIL: All Advil Tablets, Gel...

What's in The Gatorade You Are Drinking?

I don't know why I never blogged about this, but I have known it for some time.  And was just reminded of this the other day while I was at CVS and felt the need to spread the gluten-free word.  I also tweeted it. Did you know that certain Gatorade flavors like the fruit punch (red) flavor has caramel coloring in it?  Yup! It totally does. In the U.S. a processed product considered gluten-free has 20 or below 20ppm ( parts per million ).  Therefore products can seem gluten-free and even say gluten-free, even if they are not 100% gluten-free because our standards allow that and consider it Gluten-Free.   And different processed foods contain different levels of gluten-some contain less then 10ppm or even 5 parts per million.  That's lower but still...no cigar. The less you consume the better and the article I just found on Celiacdisease.about.com  points that the more under 20ppm/10/5ppm products you consume, the more gluten in your system...
