Margarine - Gluten Free, Soy Free, Dairy Free, Peanut Free?

I am trying to find a gluten free, soy free, peanut free, and dairy free margarine to use when baking. I have not been able to find anything. Does anyone know of any out there and where they can be found?

I have found Fleishman's light tub margarine to use as a spread but it does not work well for baking.

Thank you!

Hi Becky,

I've not been able to find a margarine that is without all of those things, if it dosen't have soy, it has corn, which I need to stay away from.

For baking, I use Spectrum Organic Shortening. It works as well as Crisco, but it's non-hydrogenated palm oil--much better for you.

Hi, thanks for the information. That looks exactly like what we need for our baking! Where do you find this? In a regular grocery store? In with the butter and margarines or over by the Crisco?

Avoiding all these foods sure is challenging, as I'm sure you know! We are feeling so much better though!

Thank you for your help!

I have bought it at Whole Foods, and at Wegman's (a large grocery store) in the Natural Marketplace section--baking isle.

Glad to hear you're doing better! :)

Oh the baking isle! :rolleyes: No wonder I have not been able to find anything as I always look in the margarine section! I looked at their website and there are a few stores in the area that are suppose to carry it. I can't wait to try cookies with this! Thank you so much for your help Jerseyangel!

Our grocery store (Safeway) carries Spectrum, but in the refridgerated section so I have just assumed it had to be in the 'fridge. Can it be stored in the cabinet? That would be so much more convenient for me! Or do they have different kinds and I need to just look for the one I can put in the cabinet. Thanks!

I keep it in the pantry--there's a note on the container, I believe, that says that it performs best at room temperature. And it does! :D

This is the Organic Shortening that comes in the white plastic tub.

I'll check next time I go to the store-mine is organic, but in sticks-like butter quarters

      Its been a complete nightmare dealing with all these health issues one thing after another and being told many different things.I am looking for a new primary care physician considering when I told my past doctor of 25 years I was diagnosed before any foods eliminated from my diet and now this year at age 54 no longer able to push considering Im always exhausted, leg pain , stomach,skin and eye issues,high blood pressure to name a few all worsen because I was a  school bus driver and few years until my immune system went to hell and was fired because of it.Im still struggling now, Im sibo positive and been told im not celiac and that I am.I have a hernia and dealing with menopause. Its exhausting and is causing depression because of non medical help. Today I saw another gastrointestinalist and he said everything im feeling doesn't add up to celiac disease since my ITg levels are normal so celiac disease is under control and it's something else. I for got I had Barrett's esophagus diagnosed in 2007 because recent doctors down played it just like my celiac disease. Im currently looking for a pcp in my area because it is affecting me personally and professionally. Im told since celiac looks under control it's IBS and I need to see a therapist to control it. Gastrointestinalist around here think only food consumption and if ITG looks normal its bit celiac disease it's something else. Is this right? This is what im being told. I want medical help but told its IBS.Im feel lost by " medical team "

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By trents · Posted

      My migraines generally have their onset during the early morning hours as well. Presently, I am under siege with them, having headaches all but two days so far this month. I have looked at all the things reported to be common triggers (foods, sleep patterns, weather patterns, stress, etc.). Every time I think I start to see a pattern it proves not to pan out in the long run. I'm not sure it's any one thing but may, instead, be a combination of things that coalesce at certain times. It's very frustrating. The medication (sumatriptan or "Imatrix") is effective and is the only thing that will quell the pain. NSAIDs, Tylenol, even hydrocodone doesn't touch it. But they only give you 9 does of sumatriptan a month. And it doesn't help that medical science doesn't really know what causes migraines. They know some things about it but the root cause is still a mystery.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      Just a gluten free diet is not enough.  Now you have to identify and replenish your malnutrition.  Celiac disease is co-morbid with malabsorption syndrome.  Low vitamin D, Low Thiamine caused Gastointeston Beriberi, low choline, low iodine are common the general population, and in newly diagnosed Celiacs in the western culture its is more likely.  It takes time to heal and you need to focus on vitamins and minerals.  Gluten free foods are not fortified like regular processed foods.

      Headaches / Migraines and Hypoglycaemia

      By Sarah Grace · Posted

      Dear Kitty Since March I have been following your recommendations regarding vitamins to assist with various issues that I have been experiencing.  To recap, I am aged 68 and was late diagnosed with Celiac about 12 years ago.  I had been experiencing terrible early morning headaches which I had self diagnosed as hypoglycaemia.  I also mentioned that I had issues with insomnia, vertigo and brain fog.   It's now one year since I started on the Benfotiamine 600 mg/day.  I am still experiencing the hypoglycaemia and it's not really possible to say for sure whether the Benfotiamine is helpful.  In March this year, I added B-Complex Thiamine Hydrochloride and Magnesium L-Threonate on a daily basis, and I am now confident to report that the insomnia and vertigo and brain fog have all improved!!  So, very many thanks for your very helpful advice. I am now less confident that the early morning headaches are caused by hypoglycaemia, as even foods with a zero a GI rating (cheese, nuts, etc) can cause really server headaches, which sometimes require migraine medication in order to get rid off.  If you are able to suggest any other treatment I would definitely give it a try, as these headaches are a terrible burden.  Doctors in the UK have very limited knowledge concerning dietary issues, and I do not know how to get reliable advice from them. Best regards,
