I LOVE licorice and haven't been able to find any gluten and legume/soy free one. Does anyone know of any???

(I was looking at Gimbals but they use Soy in their facilities it said on their page. I did write them an e-mail about how they used it and on all machines..but it is probably out when I am very sensitive to that stuff.)

Anyone tried their licorice? Does it taste "normal" (now I don't think Red Wines or any of that red stuff is licorice)?

Gah! I didn't know Gimbals had soy. It says they do process soy but the few kinds of things I bought from them didn't list it. Actually daughter didn't care for them anyway so it didn't really matter.

Anyway... Running Rabbit is quite good if it is the true licorice flavor you want. Here's a link but I've bought it elsewhere. Our local Central Market carries it.

The raspberry flavor does have a licorice aftertaste so if you're looking for something like Twizzlers, that's not it.

If that's what you want, then you might like Candy Tree. Yet another link:

Those are weird. They might "taste" fine but they don't have a chewy texture. I'm not sure exactly how to describe them in texture. Sort of like an Altoid or a Wintergreen lozenge. And if I recall correctly no matter the flavor they all have the same brownish color. I can't say that I cared for them.

I have read that soy is used to keep things from sticking to things. I know it is commonly used with cough drops for example. It is a cheap product I guess so very popular. So maybe they are using it for that...

I'll post the answer I get from Gimbals about the soy when I get it. Nothing so far.

I can't get the first link to work. I tried to remove some stuff in it but still nothing.

The second link/licorice is out for me when I am allergic to strawberry and cherries. Looked like they used that in all of the flavors...

Thanks for posting them though. =)

I like the proper licorice. The salty kind mostly, but that seems hard to find in a gluten free form. I am originally from Sweden and licorice is big over there. Usually very different licorice from over here in the US but I'll take what I can get. ;)

I have tried a Key Lime candy and a Raspberry one from this brand and they are a bit weird in the texture. Fall apart in the mouth kinda. I am pretty desperate so I'll probably end up trying some but I'll keep on looking for other stuff too because it doesn't sound like a winner. :blink::P

Thanks for the reply.

Okay, here is the answer from Kimball's.

Hello Jenny,

Highly refined soybean oil is used in 3 of our ingredients. 2 of the ingredients are used in Raspberries & Blackberries & the other ingredient is used Spearmint Leaves A complete clean-up is done after running these products to prevent cross contamination. Please contact me if you have any further questions.

Thank You.

Hi,

here's that first link you mentioned...there was a space between 'gluten' and 'free' in the URL, hard to spot!

HTH

EDIT: something in the bulletin board software seems to be adding that space, I can't edit it out or anything. weird! you could just copy/paste the link and delete that extra space that gets added, I suppose.

The first link is for Running Rabbit brand. It is real licorice and they do make the black kind but it's not salthy.

I tried the St. Claires's Organics brand finally and I actually kinda liked it. I like some of their others stuff too. I guess I am just glad there is something I can eat when it comes to candy. ;) Not too picky these days.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.

      oh that's interesting... it's hard to say for sure but it has *seemed* like oats might be causing me some vague issues in the past few months. It's odd that I never really connect specific symptoms to foods, it's more of an all over feeling of unwellness after  eating them.  If it happens a few times after eating the same foods- I cut back or avoid them. for this reason I avoid dairy and eggs.  So far this has worked well for me.  oh, I have some of Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal and I love it! it's hard to find but I will be looking for more.  for the next few weeks I'm going to be concentrating on whole fresh fruits and veggies and beans and nuts and seeds. I'll have to find out if grains are truly necessary in our diet. I buy brown rice pasta but only eat that maybe once a month at most. Never liked quinoa. And all the other exotic sounding grains seem to be time consuming to prepare. Something to look at later. I love beans and to me they provide the heft and calories that make me feel full for a lot longer than a big bowl of broccoli or other veggies. I can't even tolerate the plant milks right now.  I have reached out to the endo for guidance regarding calcium intake - she wants me to consume 1000mgs from food daily and I'm not able to get to more than 600mgs right now.  not supposed to use a supplement until after my next round of testing for hyperparathyroidism.   thanks again- you seem to know quite a bit about celiac.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @SilkieFairy! You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) as opposed to celiac disease. They share many of the same symptoms, especially the GI ones. There is no test for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out.
