    Default They Discontinued the GF Corn Pasta at TJ's!

    WAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!
    Totally aware that this is a bratty, first world problem, but I'm so sad! I really liked the taste and the consistency of the gluten free corn pasta from Trader Joe's. Not like I'm knocking back bowls of the stuff on a regular basis, but every so often, it was nice to have some pasta. Theirs was my favorite. And the brown rice gluten free from there isn't the same. It's not bad, but it's not the same.
    POOP.

    I had the same reaction this morning after being told it was discontinued! It was GOOD and CHEAP! Why would they discontinue it?!? I think it sold well....

    I went to another store and picked up two different GF brands, but they are blends...I can get 100% corn at a store about 20 mins away and it's only 3x the price of TJ's.

    I feel your pain. I spent half an hour complaining as I walked around our local Costco because they don't have as many gluten free options as the Costco 40 miles away. That said, have you tried the gluten free Barilla pasta? I think it's corn based. I order it from Amazon, and it's not that expensive. I think I've tried them all and it's my favorite.

    The barilla is good but my go to, hands down favorite is Wegmans GF pasta. It's corn based too.

    Gluten free since Nov '11 after non-celiac gluten sensitive diagnosis. Have had great improvement or total elimination of: migraines, bloating/distention, heartburn, cystic acne, canker sores, bleeding gums, eczema on elbows, dry skin and scalp, muscle cramps, PMS, hair loss, heart palpitations, fatigue. I'm amazed.

    DS likes Sam Mills 100% corn pasta. They have it at our Walmart (not my favorite store) and it is about $4-5 cheaper than at our local grocery.
