Gluten Free Soy Sauce.......

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.

I use San-J also. Actually just had a great stir fry with San-J for dinner.

THAnks!!! I will look for San-J next time I go to the store........ I was jsut so excited to find a soy sauce in the general market that was gluten-free.........and now that I have figured out how to make ravioli (YUMMMY!!) my next project will be egg rolls.......and I need soy sauce for the meal that goes with those.......

i use Bragg's Liquid Aminos. Naturally gluten-free, says so on the label, GMO free, and delicious.

We use VH brand soy sauce, they also have gluten-free rib marinade (yum). I dont know if it availabe in the Us, I live in Canada and Superstore / Extra Foods sells it

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 :

queenofhearts: it also contains the Chinese and Japanese labelling !!!

      Another annoying thing about trying to figure this Celiac life out is reading all of the labels and considering every choice. I shop at Aldi every week and have been for years. I was just officially diagnosed Celiac a couple weeks ago this October after my endoscopy. I've been encouraged by my local Aldi in that they have a lot of gluten free products and clearly labeled foods. I usually buy Milagro corn tortillas because they are cheap and are certified. However, I bought a package of Aldi's Pueblo Lindo Yellow Corn Tortillas without looking too closely (I was assuming they were fine... assuming never gets us anywhere good lol) it doesn't list any wheat products and doesn't say it was processed in a facility with wheat. It has a label that it's lactose free (hello, what?? When has dairy ever been in a tortilla?) Just, ugh. If they can add that label then why can't they just say something is gluten free or not? I did eat some of the tortillas and didn't notice any symptoms but I'm just not sure if it's safe. So I'll probably have to let my family eat them and stick with Milagro. There is way too much uncertainty with this but I guess you just have to stick with the clearly labeled products? I am still learning!

      Thank you all for sharing your experiences! And I am very thankful for that Thanksgiving article, Scott! I will look into it more as I plan my little dinner to bring with on the Holiday I'm also glad a lot of research has been done for Celiac. There's still a lot to learn and discover. And everyone has different symptoms. For me, I get a bad headache right away after eating gluten. Reoccurring migraines and visual disturbances were actually what got my PCP to order a Celiac Panel. I'm glad he did! I feel like when the inflammation hits my body it targets my head, gut, and lower back. I'm still figuring things out but that's what I've noticed after eating gluten! I have been eating gluten-free for almost two months now and haven't had such severe symptoms. I ate a couple accidents along the way but I'm doing a lot better

      @Mari, did you read that second article that Scott linked? It is the most recently date one. "Researchers comparing rates of headaches, including migraines, among celiac patients and a healthy control group showed that celiac subjects experienced higher rates of headaches than control subjects, with the greatest rates of migraines found in celiac women.  Additionally, celiacs had higher rates of migraine than control subjects, especially in women. In fact, four out of five women with celiac disease suffered from migraines, and without aura nearly three-quarters of the time."
    • Mari
      As far as I know and I have made severalonline searches, celiac disease disease has not been recognized as a cause of migraines or any eye problems. What I wrote must have been confusing.

      Interesting, when I suffered for a few months with ectopics I noticed that carbohydrates would cause indigestion and bloating in my stomach, then that would lead to my heart skipping beats, and I could feel it in my throat, it was very unsettling.  My last serious bout of this was after eating a Muller Rice Pudding for breakfast.   I happened to be wearing a 48 hour halter at the time and cardiology picked it up, but they weren't worried about what they saw. There was some British doctor who'd made some videos on the Vagus nerve that I remember watching at the time which made sense of what I was experiencing, there did seem to be some sort of connection.
