    Of course I miss good 'ol pizza and beer. Gluten free versions just don't quite measure up.
    Also deli sandwiches on a nice sourdough roll (The Beach Hut Deli has the best sammies). My family recently went there and I had to have turkey on a lettuce leaf, bleh!
    Oh and now that I'm talking about bread, I'd love to be able to have my grandma's cheesy garlic bread.
    Waaaahhhhhh

    The freedom to eat wherever and not worry. It's frustrating at times to have everyone around me have to cater to where I can eat all the time.

    Had a dream last night that i was chasing down a young boy with a basket of bread. He was
    running away from me, i finally caught him and got the bread and scarfed several pieces of
    fresh french bread. It was awesome! I guess i miss the fresh bread! :)

    I feel that way too! Especially when I have to quiz the wait staff and ask for special accommodations from the kitchen/chef...even if they offer a gluten free menu - I never trust that either the wait person has been trained or that maybe someone new is in the kitchen and they might be clueless.

    Real bread. Baguettes. Italian bread. Sourdough. GF bread just isn't the same.

    Same definitely! I've found great gluten free pitta breads and some rolls that are pretty good, but it's just not the same!

    Bread, for sure. Udi's is good, but nothing is as good rye bread!

    I hate the smell of regular bread now, too. Especially grocery store white bread. I tell me kids to run through that isle as well as the stinky laundry soap isle!

    Oh no! I just remembered that Panera makes a Bacon Souffle that is to die for! I hadn't thought about that till right now. Sigh. I'm seriously going to miss that one.

    Pizza...

    I was really excited to see gluten free pizza available from my favorite pizza place.... but then I had it, and although it was AMAZING.... I was just as sick eating that as I would have been eating the regular stuff.

    I can't even have gluten free substitutes!

    I've only been officially gf for a week (but have been semi-gf for about 3 months) and I can definitely relate to the OP — I want some cheesy, greasy restaurant-made pizza! The gf mix is good, but it's definitely not the same.

    I also crave garlic bread... and thinking I could remedy this with some of Julian Bakery Carb Zero bread I was seriously disappointed in the taste of the bread. I'm also trying to keep dairy low, so cheesy "bread" alternatives aren't really an option at this point, but I'm hoping eventually I'll be able to have the occasional cheesy treat. =]

    oh yeah, and like other's have said, sandwiches (especially from Subway), any sort of sandwich.... especially on sourdough. NOM

    A real sandwich on good bread (or just good bread in general!) and just last night I realized I missed cheerios with blueberries. I also don't drink milk due to issues with it.

    1. Pizza (any kind!)
    2. Basic brown bread sandwich
    3. Waffles
    4. Cheerios (used to live on them)

    I've tried GF bread and not a fan as it has tons of "other" ingredients. I've made GF waffles with rice flour and they were awsome but I do miss having a Belgian waffle.
