[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will have a houseguest for 2 weeks, I want to get in some gluten-free staples...bread, cereal, fake meat
What's my best grocery store option in NW DC on close in MD?[/quote]

That's really sweet of you.

Fwiw my celiac spouse is very particular about a lot of the alternative brands. If there's time, he would prefer a trip to the store so he could buy himself any basics. My mom used to try to stock up before his visits, and he really appreciated the effort but a lot of the stuff she bought wasn't eaten.

In general he doesn't bother eating bread or cereal and would prefer eating yogurt or eggs or gf certified oats for breakfast rather than wheat-free processed foods.

For other meals, having rice or quinoa or corn or potatoes with vegetables and meat or fish is preferable to explicit gluten free foods. Instead of fake meat, he'd prefer beans or chickpeas. Basically he tries to center eating on food that is naturally gluten free rather than substitutes.[/quote]
