So for some time now i have been a bit stuck in my opinions when it comes to what brands of wheat free items I buy and eat, i mean having been gluten free for nearly 10 years now I know what I like and I stick to it.
For the last few years I have sworn by Genius gluten free bread(http://www.geniusglutenfree.com/) as the best on the market, and I still honestly believe that it is; its soft, tastes good and comes in the right size, unlike most of these loaves that are a fraction of the size of a normal loaf, and solid as a rock.
However, Genius bread is EXPENSIVE, I normally pay around £3 a loaf, just for bread, and when you compare that to a regular loaf it's extortionate.
So imagine my surprise when i cam across wheat free bread in Aldi of all places. At £1.70 it defiantly wins on price so i thought i would give it a go, and would you have guessed it, its decent. Don't get me wrong, i don't think its quite up to the standard of genius, but I didn't expect it to be, and its still miles ahead of the majority of supermarket branded options.
I've been using it for about a week now, and will point out i normally toast it ever so slightly, just to soften it up but it works for me and saves me some money at the same time.
sorry Genius, looks like your on the back burner for now.
P.S. I have realised that the Aldi bread can be a bit difficult to find in some areas, it seems to come in waves to different areas so if you cant find it i would recommend asking the staff, if enough people do, shops will always get the products in.
