I read about this elsewhere on this forum. I'll be danged if I can find the thread now though.

I finally found some at QFC. It seems they are the only store in the Seattle area that sells it. It was on sale too. Bought two bottles, one for the big fridge and one for daughter's little fridge.

It tasted just fine. Like butter. But it did leave an oddly sweet taste in my mouth that I can't get rid of.

I am concerned though because it said "natural flavors" on it. Would it have to list dairy if the natural flavors came from butter? It seems too good to be true.

It is dairy free--I contacted the company (I started the post you may be referring to). And it's also gluten-free and soy free. I started using it a week ago, and I love it! I've missed butter very much. It is rather sweet, but hey, I'll take what I can get! Enjoy!

I'm going to check this one out for sure! I've been using coconut oil for everything, and it would be nice to change it up! I can't have dairy, or soy either....thanks for finding out for us!

ps....does dairy free also mean casein free???

Yep, dairy free means casein free, though lactose free doesn't necessarily mean casein/dairy free. It can all be confusing!

I hope you find it in stores near you! I'm putting this stuff on everything this past week because I've missed butter so much!

Due to the FDA food allergen labeling law, the 8 main allergens must be clearly listed. Dairy is one of them, and so it would have to be listed if it was included in the ingredients.

This is what they emailed me when I contacted them:

Thank you for your interest in our Smart Beat squeeze margarine. This

product does not contain dairy (casein), gluten or soy.

I found it at Kroger and have seen it in several of their stores. It's the only place I've ever seen it.

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Definitely worth speaking to your gastroenterologist about this.

In fact, he said to me that because I found relief using Gaviscon that was a very clear indicator that reflux was the cause of that particular issue. A wedge...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      I did get the pneumonia vaccine about 4 years ago. I had this amazing allergist who did all those vitamin deficiencies test and told to get that vaccine. Unfortunately she retired. I haven’t been to an allergist in a few years, I’m not sure what my levels are now. I did have a pulmonologist who wasn’t concern and said I seemed fine to him that I was young...

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Yes I do have acid reflux. I’m not on anything for it at the moment. I sometimes wonder if that’s what it could be because I get heart burn every night. I may revisit my gastrointestinal doctor again. Thanks for the reply

      Anyone else get a lot of upper respiratory infections?

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways. I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux. Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following...

      Since initially getting your D checked a few years ago, has it since rebounded to normal levels? Sounds like at some point you got it checked again.

      Hi @HelloFlowersGoodbyeFlour I wonder if you suffer from reflux, as if you do, you may find it could also be irritating your airways.  I shall explain: I have to use a blue inhaler from time to time, and it seems to be related to reflux.  Never had any trouble before my coeliac diagnosis, the reflux seemed to be something that developed following a holiday to France in 2019, where I had been exposed to gluten.    The reflux continued into the autumn and winter, my throat itched to begin with, particularly after meals, but it then that feeling of irritation seemed to spread to my lungs.  I even found it difficult to breathe on occasion. What stopped it in its tracks was using a wedge pillow at night, following a reflux diet (you can find them online), not eating 2-4 hours before bed and also having a dose of Gaviscon Advanced at night, which forms a barrier so that acid/food can't go back up your esophagus.  The throat irritation faded, and then I found it easier to breathe again. Just mentioning in case it could be a contributing factor.
