Has Anyone Tried Namaste Pasta Meals?

I'm thinking of ordering the Say Cheez Pasta and the Pasta Pisavera. It looks a bit like Chreese, but with hemp instead of lentil flour. Has anyone tried this stuff? Would love to read some product reviews :P. Thanks :D

I had it at Celiac Camp over the summer and it was yucky!!!!!!!!!! Another girl was there though, and she was dairy free and they made me and her some, she really liked it. I thought it was GROSS, but it's all personal opinion. Sorry that wasn't very helpful!

I love it! I can't have real cheese though. Would prefer the real stuff of course.

The Pisavera is also very good, although I can easily make something similar for cheaper myself.

The one I didn't care for was the Taco. I had been warned it would be rather spicy so to use only 1/2 of the seasoning packet. I did that and it had no flavor. Even with the whole seasoning packet, I felt like it had no flavor. Perhaps some bags got more seasonings than others? I don't know.

We havent tried it yet but plan to. I think with cheese substitutes you almost have to try it for yourself. My 4 year old and my husband like road organics mac n chreeze but my sister and my niece dont at all.

My whole family loves the Road's End Organics pasta. I can't stand the stuff. Tastes like mustard to me. But I do like their Nacho Chreese.

I havent tried it yet myself. Too much salt for me. It's just a taste bud thing I guess :)

Thanks everyone :)

I don't remember what real cheese tastes like, and I do like Road's Ends, so I think I'll go ahead and give this stuff a try :D

Can anyone venture to guess what's actually in the Say Cheez? LOL. It just says "natural cheddar cheese flavors" or something like that....and it's gluten-free, dairy-free, soy-free, egg-free etc. But what is it? :huh:

The flavor is so strong and the color is so bright orange, I'm just a bit curious. I kind of want to buy more of it, but I want to know what I'd be eating if I did :lol: Do you think the company would tell me? Maybe I'll contact them... :rolleyes:

Ingredients:

Brown rice pasta (brown rice flour, water), shelled hemp seed, rice milk powder, sea salt, onion powder, paprika, natural non-dairy cheddar cheese flavors, turmeric, garlic powder, calcium lactate.

I would bet its brewer's yeast (very cheesy flavor to me) and annatto for color.

I would bet its brewer's yeast (very cheesy flavor to me) and annatto for color.

Hmm, I'm just wondering if there's any casein in it. I've learned that dairy free can still have casein. I wonder if the box says "contains milk derivatives" or something?

ETS: Just found this:

That's what I would think too, but it doesn't have that brewer's yeast texture. hmmmm...it's a mystery :blink::rolleyes::lol:

I've got some on the ups truck headed this way. I'll give our opinion when we try it. If its the brewers yeast I should be able to spot it - it gives me the shimmies but the boys love it. We cannot have real cheese and are hoping we can have this.

I like it BUT...I add sauteed brocoli and onion or shallot. If folks eat garlic, that would be good too. Then I add some mustard (someone taught me to do that to mac & cheese years ago) or tobasco or something. Then it is tolerable. Actually, it's pretty good in a demented sort of way.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding

      I think I found a huge culprit for severe reactions to create worsening of my c symptoms. Do people with celiac have sensitivity and /or have opposite reaction to certain medications Where can I find a list ?  I'm new here I'm.wondering why I am getting worse when I take certain medicine...the burning feet.  Rebound muscle pain so intense  How many people get opposite effects or have a horrible attack after these meds

      Does anyone know if that includes scrambled eggs and healthy smart butter (,gluten free) I add a very tiny amount of margarine less than a teaspoon.  I did no't have any bread    It just seems like no matter what I eat my stomach and nerves over fire and here comes a host of horrible symptoms. My lower abdomen feels horrible, my right leg thigh muscle.. very odd. Jaw pain. Burning feet , joint pain , you name it  The anxiety just creeps up into brain fog. I don't think I could explain this to anyone who is unfamiliar.  Also,  I most likely will not remember posting this until I check it.  This is highly unusual for me because I have an excellent memory.  One weekend before I knew anything about celiac I lost an entire weekend from severe brain fog, confusion, pain, etc.  I honestly thought I was losing my mind. When I think back I recall eating a lot of PBJ sandwiches and turkey sandwiches.  Once again did not know about gluten.  I was just too sick to cook. Do people fast during attacks ?? It seems horrible to keep going through this. I hope I'm not causing my own problems... I wonder if I should fast because I'm not eating gluten .  Chicken ,  scrambled eggs no milk , canned carrots,  gluten free low sugar low fat Greek yogurt which I already posted about 😞 Any suggestions I am open... I am bedridden when this happens to me.  Thank you Celiac community. 🙏🏻❤️

      Yeah, that sounds super familiar. When inflammation levels are high — especially at the start of changing your diet — the body often develops a fructose and lactose intolerance. Unfortunately, the only thing that really helps is cutting out anything that isn’t lactose-free or that contains sugar. So basically, stick to meat, veggies, fish…
