Hello---I am an avid KA fan, love your catalogues, adore your Vietnamese Cinnamon,your Vermont Cheddar Cheese powder and so many more kitchen staples you offer !!~ I have an axe to grind with you, however, about your "gluten free baking mix". I've been doing "Wheat Belly" and it's been revelatory. Unfortunately, your baking mix has high glycemic index starches in it that substitute for wheat flour but drive up the blood sugar of anyone consuming it. I say this as a (retired) RN with many years of college study of Nutrition. Can't you make a baking mix that has NO HGI starches ( ex: potato & tapioca starches) ? You offer Almond Flour, so there's your base flour for the mix. I am currently making my own baking mix using flaxseed meal, almond flour and coconut flour, but I'd love being able to buy it ready-made. Also, I seriously do love KA products, but your Almond Flour is WAY overpriced! I buy 1 lb bags at a national chain "healthy foods" store for 5.99. Please take this under consideration ?? You already produce just about everything you need to make a wheat-free baking mix that also won't send one's serum glucose skyrocketing. There is a HUGE market for this type low glycemic index baking mix out here, from people just like me. Love you guys sooooo much, hoping you can take my comments seriously.
