My wife has Celiac Disease and over the years (and decades) has tried most of the commercially made GF Breads, including those from Udi's, Canyon Bakehouse, and Schär. As oregonwoodsmoke noted, none of them are very good, but some are better than others. She had about given up hope of ever finding a great tasting GF bread, but then came across a "pumkinickel" GF bread made in North Carolina by Shiloh's Five Loaves, inc. under the brand name of Simple Kneads. She found it in the fresh (as opposed to frozen) bread section of both Whole Foods and Kroger at our new home city of Savannah. She says that it is by far the best GF bread she's ever eaten and compares it favorably with "regular" bread.
There's a rice bread WF carries, that's fine for toast. I think it's probably too dense to make a good French toast, and would be very carby as a sandwich, unless just an open-faced one. But I like it as toast with cheese, or avocado toast. Unfortunately, during Covid, that brand had to discontinue their red rice bread, and their black rice bread. Demand fell off, I guess. Their red rice (an heirloom variety of rice from the Himalayas) bread was my favorite. I figure, the more color a grain has, the more nutrients it has. Like vegetables: red lettuce--more nutrients than iceberg lettuce or green.
Your wife could try the NAET allergy elimination technique mentioned earlier. There's another similar treatment called BioSet, which is even better. I had wheat/gluten antibodies (not full-blown Celiac, but C. does run through the male line on one side of the family), until I got the allergy elimination technique. One treatment did the trick, no more antibodies when I eat wheat. I don't know if it would eliminate the symptoms completely for someone with full-blown Celiac, but it would be worth a try. You could do an internet search for practitioners in your area. It's a non-medical technique. It programs your body to not be allergic anymore.

Hi, Ruth. I appreciate the suggestion, but Celiac Disease is not a food allergy or intolerance; it is an autoimmune disease. Anecdotal reports to the contrary, NAET can do absolutely nothing for an autoimmune reaction to gluten.
