I know Sargento's ricotta is safe, but I can't find it around here (central NJ). Has anyone eaten Sorrento brand or Shop-Rite brand safely? I have Tinkyada lasagna noodles, now all I need is the cheese...

Where in Central NJ are you? I am in Union Twsp.
I have the same question about Ricotta cheese.....I didn't like the texture and taste of the Sargento mozzerella cheese. Polly-o is the best, I did email them, they are owned by Kraft and follow the same labeling procedures as Kraft, but Polly o is not made by Kraft themselves, so I have hesitation about it.
I spoke to Lioni (makes a fresh mozzerella) & they couldn't guarantee vinegar issues (as it is processed with vinegar).
Let us know if you find anything out

Husband has Celiac Disease and
Husband misdiagnosed for 27 yrs -
The misdiagnosis was: IBS or colitis
Mis-diagnosed from 1977 to 2003 by various gastros including one of the largest,
most prestigious medical groups in northern NJ which constantly advertises themselves as
being the "best." This GI told him it was "all in his head."
Serious Depressive state ensued
Finally Diagnosed with celiac disease in 2003
Other food sensitivities: almost all fruits, vegetables, spices, eggs, nuts, yeast, fried foods, roughage, soy.
Needs to gain back at least 25 lbs. of the 40 lbs pounds he lost - lost a great amout of body fat and muscle
Developed neuropathy in 2005
Now has lymphadema 2006It is my opinion that his subsequent disorders could have been avoided had he been diagnosed sooner by any of the dozen or so doctors he saw between 1977 to 2003

I'm in the Trenton area. I would love some fresh mozzarella, but I don't eat anything without a label on it, and all the ones with labels just say "vinegar". Still looking for gluten-free ricotta. I'll have to see if Wegman's or Whole Foods or Wild Oats has any that are safe, when I feel like doing all that investigating. I was hoping the community here would save me the work!

I was looking to see if shredded Crystal Farms cheese was gluten-free and I found this on their site.
Does your cheese contain gluten?
Our natural cheese does not contain gluten. Our natural cheese includes shredded and chunk cheese such as cheddar, colby, marble jack, etc. Our cream cheese, Ricotta and Parmesan cheese are also gluten free. Processed cheese may contain gluten.

Hope this helps!

I believe Polly-O ricotta cheese is gluten-free. It is made my Kraft and I'm pretty sure I don't remember seeing anything on there that identified wheat or gluten.
