"Thank you, thank you, thank YOU! My son and I are both GF/CF and we LOVE your products. Not only are they tolerable, they actually taste GREAT!!"

"I just wanted to give you heartfelt thanks for creating such a great gluten-free product. I got a sample of your Cinnamon Raisin Bread and my children can't get enough. My son is 4 and my daughter is 18 months, both have Celiac and my son is autistic. This is the first time they have had bread like this. So, thank you for giving my children a piece of childhood that they have so far missed."

"I had to send a quick note to let you know your gluten free products are the best our family has had in the 3 years we've been gluten free. My 18 month old dove to the ground to get crumbs of italian roll her sister dropped on the ground. My 6 year old is going to have a sandwich in her lunch box today for the first time. Thank you for helping her have a sandwich just as good as the other kids! (actually even better!)"
Caryn M 

"Thank you, thank you, thank you for producing a great product.  I have been looking for bread I can eat and everything I tried was terrible. I tried your rolls at Eat-n-Park and thought I finally found heaven. I will be a forever customer, don't ever stop  making delicious products."

"Hi. I just wanted to say that I got your Gluten-Free Tortillas at Jimbos in Escondido, CA and they are FANTASTIC. I practally cried when I tasted them. It's been over a year since I have had a good tortilla and all other gluten-free ones have been lacking, so thank you so much for producing a truly authentic flour like tortilla!!!"

"Dear French Meadow Bakery,
I just wanted to write and say thank you a thousand times over for the amazing bread you make. My boyfriend and I care about our health and our impact on the environment. The choices we make about what we put into our bodies affects not only us but this beautiful world we live in. Choosing your bread over the cheaper brands is a no brainer for us. Of course there is the added benefit of deliciousness! We always look forward to TofuLT sandwich night and mornings of toast with local, organic jam. I've passed your information along to friends and family! Thanks again for all the delicious moments. I wish there were more caring companies like you out there!"
Kate M

"Thanks so much for the great gluten-free products. I have celiac's and am always looking for good tasting sweets. You all have everyone beat, your brownies and macaroons are the best. Thanks again and keep up the good work. Have a great day!"

"I've been meaning to write to tell you how totally amazing the frozen, ready to bake, gluten free chocolate chip cookies are. They are so much better than anything else in the grocery store! My son loves, dare I say, depends on them. Bless you!"
Becky S (Anchorage, AK)

"Thank you SO MUCH for your Spelt Bagels. They have changed my breakfast life! Since I am allergic to yeast, dairy, corn, and several different seed and nuts, I was forced to give up most breads and baked goods years ago. The health benefits are worth the sacrifice, but life without the toasted goodness of a morning bagel can get a mite dull. Your 100% Spelt yummies are even BETTER tasting than mainstream (stripped-down-flour) bagels, and I feel GREAT eating them. Thanks so very much, from the bottom of my heart and taste buds! Keep up the fantastic work. PS Your Summer Bread is fab, too."
Lorrie (Cincinnati, OH)

"I just had your individually wrapped gluten-free brownie and my first comment is "OH WOW!" I have tried many different gluten-free brownies, and this has, by far, the best texture and chocolate flavor of any of them. Thank you so much for developing such a wonderful product for people, like myself, that cannot have gluten. You make it possible for us to satisfy our cravings."
D Townsend (MO)

"I just wanted to praise you for your gluten-free chocolate chip cookies. My husband and children have required a gluten free diet for years. When I initially started buying premade gluten-free items, they didn't taste very good so I needed to learn how to make my own. However, I do miss the convenience of having great tasting food at my fingertips. That was almost impossible on a gluten-free diet but not anymore thanks to yoU! We never imagined it would be possible to have cookie dough that tastes so yummy both as a dough and baked as a cookie. AMAZING! Thanks for bringing fantastic tasting good food to the market. You have made my life easier when I want to offer my family a treat in a matter of minutes. That is huge for this mother of 4!!!"
B Burgener (Collinsville, IL)

"Thank you and French Meadow for the generous and delicious samples of gluten-free products. They were MUCH enjoyed at out October and November meetings. In 30 years of being gluten-free, your products are the best ready-to-eat treats I've had. You can be sure I and many celiacs will be buying French Meadow. Thanks again for making our lives happier and healthier."
Helen Richards, Kansas City Celiac Group

"Hello, this is Kelly, the model with Celiac Disease whom you met at the NRA show in Chicago. I just wanted to thank you again for being so generous and letting me try all of your Gluten-Free goods. I took the samples you gave me back home to share with my mom, who also has Celiac Disease. We can't believe how wonderful your products taste! Compared to all other brands of breads, pizzas, brownies, etc. we've tried, your foods are far superior. We had a pizza on your crust for the first time last week and it tasted better than the ones we used to order from the local pizzeria. I don't know how you guys came up with your recipes, but they are just amazing! Now we refuse to even try out other Gluten-Free brands. We found our favorite and are going to stick to French Meadow."
Kelly (and Diane) Cunningham

"One Minneapolis-based bakery is doing everything in its power to return bread to the top of the food chain by manufacturing and marketing functional breads that are chock full of healthful ingredients."

"I have sent thousands of people to the store to buy the Men's Bread, Women's Bread, and the Hemp Bread as it is the only bread I can be assured that if they make a sandwich or make French toast, they will not throw off their insulin balance. Besides which, it tastes great!"

"Sometimes a person starts a business because of a need, sometimes for passion or sometimes it's to make a difference. Twenty years ago, Lynn Gordon started a business that embraced all of these qualities. Little did she know that she was shaping the future of bread... the bread industry and the American people are better off for it."
Franco Harris

President, Super Bakery

"Lynn's breads are healing foods for the obese, the diabetics, cardiovascular patients, perimenopausal and menopausal women, men concerned about prostate health, and those simply wanting a high-fiber, delicious slice of bread that is organic, kosher, and suitable for vegetarians and vegans."
Award-Winning New York Times Bestselling Author Ann Louise Gittleman, Ph.D., "The First Lady of Nutrition"

"Why the reverence for French Meadow? Mainly because French Meadow has led, articulated, and demonstrated everything right and good about food in America in the last several decades: championing organics before there really was such a thing (and certainly before there was popular awareness of the issues around organics); promoting sustainable agriculture; making and serving slow foods; and generally providing a tasty little oasis of thoughtful and healthy living since the dawn of time. Or 1985, more specifically."

I'm really not in the habit of writing to companies to tell them how much I like their products...maybe because I haven't found any that I was very enthusiastic about. But several months ago I decided to change my diet; reduced if not eliminated white flour and sugar products. I was searching for a healthy bread in my neighborhood health food store and discovered your Women's Bread and Men's Bread, and they have since become one of my new food staples. Especially the Men's Bread! As a result, I've lost weight and inches, increased my energy and, I believe, improved my overall health. Your products are one of the reasons why I was able to make this transformation. When someone notices my weight loss, the first question I'm asked is how I did it. I tell them I changed my diet dramatically. And when they ask me how, you can be sure your products are mentioned. In fact, I'm sure some people think I have stock in your company (I don't)!

"I am a ‘devotee.' Just last weekend, the store in town was out of the sunflower and flaxseed bread and I wound up buying the sourdough rye, which took its place very nicely. I am grateful that you are making your bread available in stores all over the United States because I travel so much."

"I am always leery of low-carbohydrate breads since they often contain a lot of fillers that have very little nutritional values; however, one brand that I am impressed with is a series of organic breads from French Meadow Bakery™. Each slice is as close to the Zone as you are going to find."
Dr. Barry Sears, author of the bestselling book Zone Diet

"About 4 months ago a friend of mine took me to a local store which specializes in organic and health conscious foods. There, while looking at the labels on breads, I discovered your products. What caught my eye was the protein levels and net carbs of your Men's Bread. I purchased a loaf and brought it home and my whole family had to try it.

Today Men's bread is part of my regular meal planning, either as a sandwich or toast at breakfast, or even an evening snack with a thin spread of natural peanut butter to pick me up after a long workout at the gym.

Thank you very much for such a wonderful product. I can eat bread and not feel guilty about the carbohydrates while at the same time enjoy great taste and pick up important protein, vitamins, and minerals."
Allen Robertson and family

“We need to change chemistry, and that is what Lynn has done with food chemistry. The French Meadow bread is a superbread, a superfood, it aids digestion and nutrition is delivered through the body.”
