Dairy Free And Gluten Free-want String Cheese

Hi! I am doing pretty well finding foods for my son, who has to remain off both gluten and dairy for the time being. One of the things he is missing is string cheese that his sister can have. He would like to have some, but it has to be both gluten and dairy free. Does anyone know of a place where I can find them online? I haven't had luck at any local stores I've checked.

TIA!

I am not sure about gluten-free string cheese, but I eat Cabot snack sized cheese. There's mild cheddar and extra sharp cheddar. You can find them with the shredded cheese in the supermarket. Cabot cheese advertises that all their cheese is gluten-free and has "0 grams of lactose". Maybe Cabot makes a string cheese?

There isn't any Gluten-free Casein-free string cheese - you need the dairy protein to get the proper 'texture' for string cheese. Sorry. :-( Perhaps he'd be willing to switch to dried fruit (like apples).

Thanks! I hadn't thought about the texture needed for string cheese. Really, right now all I can find is the sliced cheese at the store I shop at. I will have to travel to the health food store to see if they even have block or snack cheese he can have as a substitute.

      Anyone understand genetic testing

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your genetic test results confirm that you carry the highest-risk markers for celiac disease, specifically the HLA-DQ2 haplotype (while being negative for HLA-DQ8). The fact that both HLA-DQA1*05 and HLA-DQB1*0201 appear twice means you inherited identical copies from each parent, making you homozygous for these genes. This double dose of the DQ2.5 haplotype is significant because it indicates an even stronger genetic predisposition to celiac disease compared to those who only inherit one copy. Research suggests that people with this homozygous pattern may have a higher likelihood of developing the disease, potentially more severe immune responses to gluten, and a stronger...

      Helping child go strict gluten-free and concerns about growth/height

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      It sounds like you and your daughter are navigating celiac disease with a lot of care and dedication, and it’s wonderful that you’re prioritizing her health and growth during this critical time. Since her antibody levels and growth have plateaued, tightening up her diet by avoiding eating out (except at dedicated gluten-free places) is a smart move—even if it’s challenging socially. Many parents of celiac kids report significant growth spurts once gluten exposure is minimized, so there’s hope she’ll catch up if her levels improve. As for the future, while her growth window closing may reduce some risks, celiac is lifelong, and staying as strict as possible will likely always be best...
