Btw, charlie, clark bent, I love your sports blog --didn't read a lot yet, but hey it is good stuff!!!
thanks, I almost forgot about it I haven't written anything on the blog for a month or so since I've been working on my novel again (or at least I'd like to pretend I am)... but I might try and get a column or two up now that football is a couple weeks into the season and I no longer have to watch the phillies once again come up short of the playoffs

no soy for me either- in fact all legumes so i miss my chocolate and peanut butter but it gives me intense joint and muscle pain even in small amounts. NOT worth it. Enjoy Life rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i haven't found their chocolate chips yet but I snarf down their chocolate chip cookies whenever I get my hands on them. Also, Namaste makes great mixes (including brownie mix0 that are allergen free- no soy or gluten. I LOVE the blondie mix. Melts in your mouth!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am also off of all soy now. It makes me feel horrible! I can't do soybean oil in anything, even tortilla chips or soy lecithin. I do Hellman's Canola Oil. I have heard about Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips, I may need to give those a try. I also use Canola Oil to fry fries or chix nuggets in and olive oil to saute in. I can't use any margarines b/c I haven't found any that are soy free. I use butter, but need to remember to take Lactaid with it b/c I am lactose intolerant.
The hardest part is eating out. Gluten is hard enough to detect, let alone soy. I usually stick to restaurants that I know and that know me.

I use grapeseed oil, I think the brand I've been buying is Napa Naturals or something like that. It's at Wild Oats. I like grapeseed oil because it can handle higher heat.
I don't mind not having soy as much as not having dairy.. but I guess each person has a different preference
and just a heads up though you probably either know or would notice on your own but soy is in many cans of tuna.. I was surprised by this (there's often an ingredient of vegetable broth in tuna which contains soy)
Yeah, and we'd just bought tuna, too. Now I have 6 cans of useless tuna.
I need mayo and butter suggestions.
Thanks for the heads up!
Soy is hard, I know, but it does get easier once you know what to look for. I shout this out on a lot of threads, but yay!! Hellmann's has a great canola mayo!!

Great! Thanks for the heads up. I was wanting mayo!

Cool, I have some grapeseed oil. I'll give that a try. Thanks!
Shalia,
Feel free to pout. And even as you go on, you'll probably still pout now and then. But, you know this because you are gluten free.
Check out spectrum organics. I think they have a non soy based mayo. I think its canola based.

Cool, thanks. I'll go look them up now.
I'll get over the poutyness if it makes me feel better. I'm good about that eventually.
I'm right there with ya. But sometimes, you have to go through the "bad" feelings to get to a place of good feelings. (I say this as I am craving chocolate something awful, and am reacting to it.) Ugh.

Good luck with the mayo, etc.
Wow, just looked at your list. What ARE you eating? It'd be easier to list your "can" foods than your "can't"!!
I think there is some form of soy in most comercial broths - not sure what it really is but every time I try one, I get sick so I just make my own.
Watch out for those cooking sprays, they all have soy too - except for one passover one I found that is just olive oil.
I make the three ingredient peanut butter cookies that has its own thread with cashew butter, sugar, eggs, and half a bag of Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips!!! TO DIE FOR!!!
I also have given up all legumes and react to soy lechtin. And I am intolerant to the calcium they add to OJ and all the non-dairy milks.
