I will let the salesperson in charge of school districts know about your concerns. We understand that gluten-free foods can be more expensive than the gluten-filled versions. To give you an idea though, certified gluten free ingredients are more costly, as is maintaining a certified gluten free facility. (We do both of those things). Again, thanks for your feedback!

Since then we have tried more breads (and other foods) on the market that are gluten-free (not to mention the $$$$$$$$ of dollars wasted because most of the products are practically un-edible) and have discovered that the ONLY bread she will eat, and actually likes, is Udi's green label glutefree sandwich bread. She is in District 11 schools and the dietian tells us that she can't serve this bread to her at school because the District cannot afford it! Now it is a sad state of affairs when a school district can't provide proper nutrition to a child because of cost! Can't Udi's find a way to work with this school District 11 in regard to cost. Surely the $6.00 per loaf that WE pay (which is DOUBLE the cost of regular breads) as consumers give the company enough of a profit margin to cut the school district some slack in regards to cost. Just thought you would like to know how it is out here with the consumers of this specialty item.
