Step 1
Check the local whole foods, natural foods or health food store, sometimes known as a co-op. Ask about gluten-free products in terms of any baked goods, including bagels, breakfast bars, pastries, pizza, breads and crackers.
-
Step 2
Ask for rice or amaranth flour. Any grain flour can be substituted for regular flour in recipes. Try nuts and beans as substitutes for sugars and starches.
-
Step 3
Choose rice pasta, cereal, crackers and bread. Go for rice milk or almond milk. Enjoy corn bread and corn tortillas.
-
Step 4
Find gluten-free beer. Dozens of possibilities exist, from the US as well as England, Australia and Canada. American choices include Sprecher Brewery and Bard's Tale Beer.
-
Step 5
Ask at the whole foods store if there is a gluten-free bakery located near you, or check the label on the gluten-free breads showcased at the store. These stores cater to the gluten-free diet and vary specials each day, just like regular bakeries. Also, ask at regular bakeries if any of their offerings are gluten-free. Many bakeries now feature at least one or two types of breads that are gluten-free.

on 11/24/2008 Thank you so much for helping me with this issue. My son is 5 yrs old and has celiac disease. We just found out and I have no idea how to modify his diet or find gluten free groceries. Definitly 5 stars!
