M&S bread is very good - a seeded brown loaf and a poppy seed-covered white loaf. A whole galaxy away from the old-style "plastic" long life stuff. Sainsbury's pittas are great too.

...and for Madjock, I've seen GF fish fingers in Sainsbury's free from frozen section. Haven't been able to try them because I can't eat fish any more.

Was scrolling down to add about M&S, a lady in Asda had mentioned it a while back, said it was the closest she had come to finding "real" bread.

genius bread or aldi gluten free whole meal are lovely. The aldi is available in Ireland so stock up as very cheap.

Good
Genius white is ok but a little dense.
Dietary solutions sweet bread rolls, heated are nice
Bfree are lovely but tend to have random large holes in the middle. Very difficult to mae a sandwick
The aldi gluten free bread rolls “has no” in wholemeal are first rate and the best. Their selection of food is good, the apple tart is excellent unlike the chemical taste from the over- sweetened tesco apple pies.
Aldi do a wonderful soda bread that is fabulous. It is filling and would go so well with soup or smoked salmon. It is beautiful and first rate. One of the best products in gluten free. I stock up when in Ireland and freeze it.
The Bfree wraps and fajita are ok, over priced but ok.
First rate long life bread is Kelkin sourdough bread. It is simple lovely and so so good. It has the feel of real bread and is outstanding. It’s available through amazon and believe me it’s worth it. It’s expensive but it’s fabulous. Warm it for the real bread experience. Love it! http://www.amazon.co.uk/Kelkin-Multiseed-Sour-Dough-Bread/dp/B010FDW21G

Bad
The sealed plastic bread- with synthetic feel… Glutafin are very dense. Not a great fan
Tesco gluten free pizza are terrible. So yeasty an chemically.
DS ciabatta rolls- weird taste and very hard.
Livwell- pancakes very sweet, hot cross buns ok

The ugly
Juvela- biscuits and bread (rolls are ok)
Tesco biscuits
Gluten free spaghetti all brands- it just sticks in a mess (other shapes are ok)
