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.

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:

Product Features

* Wheat, gluten, corn, soy, dairy, potato, casein and nut free

* Manufactured in a dedicated allergen-free facility

* All natural and easy to prepare

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.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Taken Seriously

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.
