I jsut recieved this emai from ConAgra regarding LaChoy soy sauce. I did a lot of label reading a while back to find one that is gluten-free and the LaChoy seemed like the winner, butust to be on hte safe side I thought I'd email them....... I have contacted ConAgra before and was told that they have a similar policy s Kraft, but haven't heard much on here about them so i was still leary.....anyway......has anyone tried it???? Is it good to go?????

Thank you for your recent e-mail requesting information on gluten content.

ConAgra Food Ingredients has done gluten testing on only a minimal number of our products. However, we did test two LaChoy soy sauces, and both tested negative for gluten. The product identifiers are:

UPC #44300 12511 15 oz LaChoy soy sauce

UPC #44300 12513 10 oz LaChoy soy sauce

We hope this information is useful to you.

Try San-J wheat free tamari. Far superior to La Choy, IMO.

I used to love San-J when I could eat soy! it even says wheat free on the bottle, just make sure you do get the wheat free one cause they also have a normal one, and my mom bouhgt that once, but then she realized before i ate what she out in it! ooops!

Tamari is a special type of Japanese soy sauce that should be wheat-free. Shoyu is the regular type, which always has wheat. San-J makes both types. Read the labels, definitely.

Both Walmart and Kroger have store brands that are gluten free. I contacted Kroger. It's the one with the red label. Walmart's has a green label and says gluten free.

Not all tamari is gluten-free! Should be, perhaps, but you still have to read the labels...

Do we sound like a broken record?

My frustration is shopping in ethnic groceries where the labels aren't even in English!

I was going to reply .. and then did a bit of research. What I was going to say is now irrelevant because it turned out to be a whole lot more complex than I thought... think inuit words for snow!

I think people should probably just read this :

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      I'd go with a vodka tonic, but that's just me😉

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.
