Livwell Products at Whole Foods

Archived by Diane 8/16/2024 -> no longer available

I shopped at Whole Foods earlier this week and was pleasantly surprised to find new Livwell gluten free baked goods, imported from the U.K.  The Seeded Sliced Sandwich Bread ($5.49) greatly exeeded my expectations with its wonderfully bready texture.  And it tastes great, too.  I am looking forward to trying the Crumpets ($4.99) stashed in my freezer.  Other items are available including white sandwich bread, pita bread, scones, english muffins, rolls, and pizza crusts.  According to the packaging they are made without gluten, wheat and milk and are vegetarian and a good source of fiber.  These products are shelved near the instore bakery at both the Cedar Center (frozen) and Woodmere (not frozen) stores.

Have you tried them?  Please share your experience by commenting below.

NEWS:  Wed. 6-10-15
guests to our website have reported that recalls of some Livwell products in the UK have been issued due to gluten contamination. 

Updates will be issued as details are available.

Parent & Kid's Event, "Celebrating Earth Day"

Sue and Giordana hosted an event for kids and parents this past Sunday, April 22.

Sue reports about the fun:

Giordana had made a bunch of earth day themed games: memory games, word search, etc.  These were great for the kids to complete while we waited for the rest of the families to arrive.  She also made edible ‘dirt’ for the kids to enjoy.

We started out the meeting with a little lesson on recycling and how long it takes for different products to biodegrade (plastic takes 500 years!).  We had the kids decorate sugar cookies to look like Earth and then they made planters out of egg shells.
