After I got home from work Cali and I headed to Whole Foods to find some good Gluten Free items. It is a 30 minute trip to the closest one!
One we walked the store and got a feel for the place I put Cali in a cart and off we went. I was able to find some good items on my own that were Gluten Free. My main reason for going was to get some Udi’s bread. Some of the blogs I read have made mention of it and they have a $1.00 off coupon deal right now!

However after walking the bread section twice I couldn’t find it. Frustrated I went to the bakery counter to ask for help. It turns out all the Gluten Free bread is in a special freezer. Luckily a very friendly woman was at the counter next to me who mentioned her husband has had Celiac for three years. I told her I was just diagnosed last week and she took pity on my. So Cali and I followed her and her two adorable kids around the store as she gave me the quick tour of the Gluten Free products. It was great to have an insider show me what brands were good and what to avoid.
Some of the big finds were:
- Pacific Natural Foods – Organic Cream of Chicken
- Bob’s Red Mill – Gluten Free Cornbread Mix
- Tinkyada Pasta Joy – Organic Brown Rice Pasta Spirals
Whole Foods seemed to have a lot of Gluten Free products but they were not all clearly labeled like at the Fresh Market. For my next trip I will need to go by myself so I can take my time to look for items or bring Nick so he can entertain Cali.
I will give you my input on the products I bought as I try them.
