What's that smell??? – Bought and opened a brand new loaf only to be smacked in the face with the strong smell of chemicals like acetone or something similar. Expensive bread straight in the bin. What a waste of money and food. Disgusting! Show details
Great bread but overpriced – I have eaten all your GF breads & find taste is fine, but cost usually $7.80 a loaf,for half the amount of your regular loaves & double the price is an very unfair to Coeliacs. Surely this could be modified . Show details
A wholemeal of rubbish – First time user and if you want absolutely no moisture left in your mouth, crumbly dry then this is for you. Seriously if it was out of date I’d understand but really to craft such a loaf with this outcome it must of been the apprentice on his first day at work…..hey Billy go learn ya craft on the gluten free stuff first mate! Never again and a 0 rating if there was one. Show details
Stale tasteless rubbish – I am yearning for a fresh bread salad sandwich. I have for years. But it’s not possible with Abbott’s Gluten Free Bread. I have just purchased a loaf with 10 days left before the use by date, and it’s revolting, only good for toast. Why should Coeliacs have to put up with this, what is the problem? All I want is a fresh sandwich. Show details
Best bread ever – I absolutely love this gf farmhouse wholemeal. It is by far the best gf bread I've ever eaten in my 25 yrs as coeliac. Love the flavour and don't like other wholemeal normally. Please Abbott's don't change the recipe. Even love the crust yum! Eat it every day Show details · 1
Worst Bread Ever! – The fact that I went out of my way to review this bread says something in itself. I cant stand this product how did you guys get the contract for woolies and coles? There were so many decent gf breads available before your crap came along. Your bread has no taste, no flavour but worse is the texture so stale and hard. It belongs in either the bin… Read more
or soup because it reminds me of crotons. I dont want to see this product on the shelves anymore we deserve better than Abbotts.
Abbotts Gluten Free Sourdough (Grain and seeds) – I have gone onto the Keto diet that recommends gluten free sourdough - but not grains. Do you make such a bread? Because I have been trying to bake my own but not successful. I really like the sourdough bread with the herbs, but In eed fluten free.

Smells like acetone after 5 days! – Purchased 6 days ago from Woolworths in Bathurst. 50% used now need to throw it away as it smells like acetone and tastes of chemicals! I wondered why I getting headaches. This is on top of the fact they come tasting dry, only contain 500g in a packet and over priced at nearly 3 times the price of non gluten free bread. Show details

Good taste but blocks me up – This gluten free bread tastes ok especially when toasted. However, each time I have had it I feel constipated. This is a problem and means I cant continue to eat it. Show details
The shrinking loaf – Not only is there less slices in the bag at 10 slices plus crusts, but the size of each slice has shrunk to, while the cost of a loaf is now close to $8.00. Very disappointing Abbotts do you think customers don’t notice? Show details
Great Gluten Free bread! – One of the best GF breads I've had & also the added benefit of no potato starch which I am intolerant to! I think the wholemeal loaf is even better than the GF Rustic White but both are great. Show details · 2
Extremely Disappointing – Have to say disappointing is an understatement. Something has certainly changed in the recipe. This bread feels stale and completely falls apart. About the only thing it can be used for is toast and then you have to be lucky that the slice doesn't break trying to get it out of the packaging. I originally thought it was poorly handled and stored… Read more
by the supermarket but when the next 2 loaves were the same I have to concede it is the product. I'll no longer purchase this brand.

New recipe??? – I used to LOVE Abbott's gluten free wholemeal bread so much that I got my whole extended family onto it but I don't know what has happened recently maybe they have had a new recipe designed or someone has stuffed up along the way causing a batch to be ruined but I have noticed that all of a sudden the loaves are stale as anything!! It is… Read more
disgusting! For the past month or just over, brand new loaves feel as hard as a rock and taste so bad. I've unfortunately had to go back to Helgas

Good Stuff – I have always eaten the soy and linseed,I only tried the wholemeal last week. The wholemeal trumps the others by a country mile.Once again I can finally grab a slice of wholemeal put lashings of butter and peanut butter on it and enjoy…It also holds together well in sandwich form,and is very nice toasted with poached eggs on top.

Not free from artificial additives – This product claims that it is free from artificial colours flavours or preservatives However it contains Modified tapioca starch. This is an additive which is prepared by treating starch by causing starch or starch granules to be partially degraded. Additive 464 is a chemically modified wood cellulose product! It is used in commercial… Read more
applications such as tile adhesive, cement render, paints, detergents and cleaners!! It also contains heavy metals including arsenic lead and mercury People please do your due diligence, I don’t even work in the food industry.
This is the best gluten free bread – This is new on the market. I have been diagnosed Coeliac for more than twenty years. I have never found a suitable bread. This has to be the best gluten free bread I have ever tried. To think you can but it at the big name supermarkets.
