Disclosure: Always check menus and sites for updated versions. This information is meant to be used as a tool to help guide newly diagnosed Celiac or Gluten Intolerant patients, or just anyone who is beginning the gluten free diet for various other reasons.
NOTE FROM ME: I hope that this information is helpful to all of you google searchers who stumble upon this page. I decided to try to create a "one stop shop" for this information, especially since so many people around me have found this information so helpful when they are going onto this diet since it is so confusing. Thank goodness they are finally beginning to mark Gluten on the allergy warning label on food labels (effective 12/2008). This is a work in progress. I still plan to add favorite cookbooks, great mainstream foods that just happen to be gluten free but are not advertised as such, and also create an attachment so that this information is printable & more handy. I am open to suggestions & comments so I can continually improve this information. Hope this is helpful to all!

Brands that I recommend
This is my ultimate favorite brand ever! There is nothing Namaste that I have tried that has not been great. I highly recommend all of their products.
GF bread mix is good (can also also use the recipe online to make from scratch *cheaper* the banana bread recipe online is also good)
Where to shop (Some of many local locations)
Most grocery stores are willing to try to carry products that you request at first, you just have to spread the word when the product comes in so it makes it worth their while. They probably won't order the GF product again if it just sits and collects dust.
I have found GF noodles, cookies, Amy's entrees, GF Betty Crocker, and much more at my local Walmart!

I just wanted to let you know I was recently at an Old Spaghetti Factory restaurant and they have several gluten-free options!! They use gluten-free fettucini noodles with several of their sauce options made gluten free...they even have two gluten-free dressings for salads and a gluten-free Italian ice cream option for dessert!
