Super Helpful Gluten Free Apps
Finding gluten free restaurants, info and products just got easier if you have an iPhone! The apps that I have on my Droid might be different than the apps on an Apple iPhone.
Here are some of my favorite apps:
GF Ingredients $1 - Contains a quick list of all the acceptable and not acceptable list of ingredients. This will make shopping easier. However, I would still call a company if you are not sure about contamination.
Find Me Gluten Free - This app is awesome! It finds your location and lists the closest gf restaurants. It also has a list of chain restaurants, like Wendy's or subway, where it lets you see their menus. I highly recommend it!
CeliacFacts - This is an interesting app that informs you about the most recent Celiac news. It is not super useful on the go, but if you're looking for a good read than this one is for you.
GF Scanner - pretty much the coolest idea ever, however, it does not have everything you search for. It still has a lot of stuff though. How it works: You take whatever you have and it scans the bar code to see if it is gf or not.
If anyone has any other apps that they love make a comment below so we can all enjoy in their helpfulness!
Happy glutenfreeing!

NEW PROVO GF BAKERY!!
Ladies and gentlemen, I have great news! Probably the best news since I found out Pizza Pie Cafe sells gf pizza. Are you ready?!
There is now a gluten-free bakery in Provo!! I never thought the day would come that we would have one so close by but my dreams have come true. It's called...
As you can probably tell I am super excited about this and have already been the happy recipient of some of their product. I have been eating their multi-grain bread for a week now and am pretty much in heaven! It tastes so normal!! It also is regular size! When I brought it home my roommate had just bought some normal bread from Great Harvest, and to my utter joy my loaf was bigger than her loaf! That never happens, ever!
So far I have made French toast, toast and tuna melts with it. The tuna melts were the best because it seriously tasted so good and normal. One of the best things about it is that it is moist and not incredibly dense like other gf breads. It also does not cut my mouth up when I eat it toasted, that is also a rare find.
So, as you can see I am pretty much in love with this new bakery and can't wait to try their other products. Oh I almost forgot the most amazing part... the bread only costs $5.75 for a full-sized loaf! It's a miracle from the gf gods!
