If you're in Japan and trying to avoid gluten, it can be a trial. CR Supply has some gluten-free foods that are so-so at best, but the pizza crusts are fairly good. You can buy those here or at cr-supply.com.
For bread, I prefer this brand. This bread makes pretty good toast and reasonable sandwiches. The raisin bread is good too, but impossibly tiny. The size of a business card. This bread is about the size of a credit card. (Are those different sizes?) Anyway, if you toast it for about 10 minutes, even from a frozen state, it will hold up as sandwich bread.
The same brand's pizza crusts are all right, but you have to bake the crap out of them to make them any good. Too puffy.
I also tried out these curry croquettes. Quite nice. Not sure what all is in them in an "I hope there's no gluten" way, but they don't contain any wheat, at least. You pop them in the microwave for a couple of minutes, and they appear to be mostly sweet potato on the inside. The curry flavor is nice and overrides any other flavors (I am not a sweet potato fan).
I also got some hamburgs, but these are not nearly as good as the ones that Nippon Ham produces. I guess because they are "Japanese flavor" and as far as I can tell that means "watery miso something flavor." They kind of need something else. Ketchup? I dunno. When I drained all the juice out due to a bag issue, basically I was left with a well-cooked but moderately flavored hamburger patty. Better than nothing, I suppose.
I would definitely buy more of the croquettes, but the hamburgers not so much.
These little cookies are pretty good and have a nice coconut flavor.
These are interesting because they taste like La Choy rice noodles.
It's hard to know what has gluten in it, and so I repeat again that I can't vouch for these being 100% gluten free. I do know they are wheat-free and in Japan that's sometimes as good as you can hope for. I've gotten poisoned by foods I thought were "safe" before and can't wait to get out of here and "know" that foods are safe. But these "should be" safe.
