Are they any good? I was thinking of trying the Ginger Stir Fry and the Sweet and Sour sauces.

i have a bottle of sweet and sour at home but i haven't used it yet. its been setting in the cupboard for a while! i'll write myself a note to taste it tonight :)

jenvan Collaborator

okay, so i went home over lunch and stuck my tongue in the bottle to taste :) (sweet and sour)... let's just say it was "funky." maybe try the other flavors and not the sweet and sour :blink: it just tasted weird, not like the sweet and sour sauce you'd get at a restaurant. here's a homemade recipe for it if you want to try making it from scratch...

2 tb Oil, peanut

2 ts Garlic, minced

2 ts Ginger, minced

1 c Water

1 c Vinegar

1 c Sugar

1 c Ketchup

2 tb Cornstarch

2 tb Water

1/2 ts Salt

Heat the oil in a wok and add garlic, ginger, water, vinegar, sugar and ketchup. Dissolve the cornstarch in the water and add salt. Add to the mixture in the wok and cook until clear. Serve hot, or cool and refrigerate for later use.

I ordered a whole bunch, unfortunately. We found them awful. Others I'm sure will like them but they just tasted kind of well as another poster put it .. funky.

Thanks guys!! You saved me a few dollars. I'm definately gonna try that recipe for sweet and sour sauce. How long does it stay for if I bottle it?

'His" Tangy Bang is good, in my opinion - I use it to add to stir fry veggies, etc -

BTW, if you order from the Mr. Spice web site, it's cheaper than at other sites, and you get free bottles with larger orders....

I think it's worth trying different gluten-free products like these, seeing which ones you like and then trying to copy the ingredients, if you can produce the same thing for less -

Oh thank G-d you told me that. I would have thought I could make it and keep it for 2 months like a store bought sauce. This link is awesome. You rock!! Thanks.

      He is not just a psychiatrist.  He is also a neuroscientist.  And yes, I have already read those studies.   I agree with benfotiamine.  This is short term while glutened/inflammation occurs.  As I had already mentioned, these symptoms no longer exist when this phase passes.  And yes, I know that celiac is a disease of malnutrition.  We are working with a naturopath.

      Please do more research before you settle on nicotine. Dr. Paul New house is a psychiatrist.  His latest study involves the effect of nicotine patches on Late Life Depression which has reached no long term conclusions about the benefits.   Effects of open-label transdermal nicotine antidepressant augmentation on affective symptoms and executive function in late-life depression https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39009312/   I'm approaching the subject from the Microbiologist's point of view which shows nicotine blocks Thiamine B1 uptake and usage:   Chronic Nicotine Exposure In Vivo and In Vitro Inhibits Vitamin B1 (Thiamin) Uptake by Pancreatic Acinar Cells https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26633299/   While supplementation with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine can protect from damage done by  nicotine: Benfotiamine attenuates nicotine and uric acid-induced vascular endothelial dysfunction in the rat https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18951979/   I suggest you study the beneficial effects of Thiamine (Benfotiamine and TTFD) on the body and mental health done by Dr. Derrick Lonsdale and Dr. Chandler Marrs.  Dr. Lonsdale had studied thiamine over fifty years.   Hiding in Plain Sight: Modern Thiamine Deficiency https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8533683/ I suggest you read their book Thiamine Deficiency Disease, Dysautonomia, and High Calorie Malnutrition.     Celiac Disease is a disease of malabsorption causing malnutrition.  Thiamine and benfotiamine: Focus on their therapeutic potential https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10682628/

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.
