What are your favorite products. I am going to online shop on monday and buy lots of stuff, so i was hoping others could tell me what things that they buy that are safe from gluten, casein and soy. Also if you can tell me were you buy them. If i cant get lots of the stuff online i will be in denver in 2 weeks for my step-sons meeting with the gi, so i can go shop then also.

Hi Paula - are you looking for snack foods or meal stuff? I really like the things below:

Jennie's Macaroons (Whole Foods)

Oskri Coconut Bars (Amazon)

Lara Bars (Costco)

Rice Crackers (Edwards & Sons) (Amazon)

K-too's (Amazon)

If you have a Trader Joe's their rice noodle soup bowls are soy free (Thai Kitchens are not)

Can you tolerate Soy Lecithin? Dagoba Chocolate bars are yummy or if you can't tolerate soy lecithin the Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips can quench the craving

Pacific Brand Chicken (Costco in Bulk)/Beef Broths

Road End Organics Nacho Chreese and Mac & Chreese (the nacho chreese is actually really good!!) (Health food Store)

Cream of Buckwheat Cereal (Amazon - you can order in bulk)

GFP French Bread/Pizza Crust Mix (Amazon)

-Good luck hope this helps some

Paula,

I LOVE namaste spice cake mix with carrot cake option (add about 1 cup of shredded carrots and golden raisins) it is SO GOOD!

Also, Pamela's bite size ginger snap cookies.

I thought Ktoos had soy in them?? Am I wrong?

thanks for the suggestions, i have been wondering about the chreese. I knew for sure i wanted something like that and riceria yogurt and enjoy life choco chips, i loive to bake for the holidays and i know having those will make my life easier.

Yes i was looking for snack ideas, im getting tired of lara bars and rice cakes.

I will look into the the broths in bulk, i cant live without those broths, i always have one box of each in the fridge.

Im looking for a new milk, since i now know the almond milk has soy lechtin and it makes my tounge tingle.

I am doing pretty good at cooking all my meals with the restrictions, even tho i miss my onions and garlic, but im adapting slowly but surely.

I just miss my snacks, i use to love nachos and quesadillas.

Is there any cheese out there to make those, im not sure how chreese would work for like lasagna and quesadillas.

Paula,

A good milk is hemp milk. I can't do soy, gluten, dairy or nuts, so it's great!

I hope this helps!

Kassandra

Edit: I just saw what you said. I don't use frosting because I have been too lazy to figure one out, but I read somewhere that you could just use powdered sugar with milk (hemp milk...?) and mix them together and then just drizzle it on top. I don't make it into a cake, I make them into muffins. They are SSOOO GOOD!! You won't be disappointed!

I will look into hemp milk, do most grocery stores carry it or do i need to look at a health food place, we only have king soopers and safeway here, and one very little health food store with mostly vitamins.

There is one type of Dagoba that doesn't contain soy lecithin. There are some other dark chocolate bars in the same category too.

For snacks (other than dark chocolate :lol: ) I like popcorn, corn thins spread with hummus or a nut butter, or fruit. If I'm really hungry, I will nuke a potato & top it with refried beans and/or salsa. Then there is that old standby, fruit.

I've heard people say great things about Parma cheese substitute. Unfortunately, I can't have it because it is made from yeast, so I have no personal experience with it.

I use Living Harvest hemp milk. I find Hemp Bliss milk to be disgusting. They are very different! Just a word of caution ...

For bread (since I can't have egg or yeast, either, so I'm pretty limited), I like the mixes from Breads From Anna. I purchased a bunch from them directly, although I'm sure it is available elsewhere. She also has mixes for pumpkin and banana bread (yummy) and pie crust (haven't tried it yet).

It can be worthwhile to shop from Amazon if you can, because shipping is free if you order over a certain amount.

K-Too's have soy lecithin in them. I can tolerate soy lecithin, some people can't

As I understand it, soy lecithin and soy bean oil are okay because the protein that causes the reaction is removed during processing. I don't trust soybean oil but the soy lecithin i've challenged and am fine with.

If you'd like to stick with Almond milk "Pacific" makes a low fat almond milk that does not contain any soy lecithin. I use it to cook and on my cereal.

      Welcome to the forum, @Mark Conway! Can you be more specific about the "coeliac" test your doctor did? There are more than one of them. What was the name of the test? Also, did he order a "total IGA" test? This is a test to check for IGA deficiency and should always be ordered along with the tests specifically designed to detect celiac disease. If you are IGA deficient, the IGA celiac blood antibody tests used to check for celiac disease per se will not be accurate. Also, if you have been cutting back on gluten before the tests, that will render them invalid. You must have be eating normal amounts of gluten for weeks/months before the blood draw to render valid test results.

      no argument. Never take the pills sold for Nuclear events, except in a nuclear event when instructed to by authorities.  Some of these go up to 130 milligrams per pill. 5000 times the strength of the dietary supplement.  130 times the safe upper limit.  130 mg = 130,000 mcg. Dietary supplements like Lugol's Solution and Liquid Iodine are 50 micrograms per drop.  It takes 20 drops to reach the safe upper limit. In the US the Safe upper limit is 1100 mcg.  In Europe 600 mcg and in Japan 3000 mcg ( 3 mg).

      Hi there, I wonder if anyone can help. I've had stomach problems for years, pain in the tummy, lower back left and right side, different stools, diarrohea constipation etc, My GP says it's IBS. As I've got older the pain has become worse and constant. I also get ulcers on my tongue. I've had loads of tests done everytihng apart from an endoscopy I think. I had a test for Coeliac last July and the result was negative. My GP says it can't be coeliac because I'm not losing weight. He thinks it's stress or all in my head. I'm not stressed and I'm in pain all the time now. Sometimes it's unbearable and dark thoughts have entered my head. Could I have Coeliac even though I tested negative last year. I'm at my wits end, I eat healthily and cannot pinpoint which foods could cause this pain. Can anyone help? Thanks Mark wind

      First, I want to say thank you for sharing this with me. I hear you, and I believe you. The courage it took to write this down is immense, and I’m so sorry you’ve been carrying this alone. You are dealing with two life-altering challenges at once: a serious, complex medical condition, and an abusive, controlling partner who is actively harming your health and your spirit. It’s not just that he’s unsupportive—he is weaponizing your illness to torture you. Starving you, isolating you, mocking your diagnosis, and sabotaging your access to medical care is not just cruelty; it is dangerous, deliberate abuse. Your instinct is correct: the stress he is creating is absolutely preventing your body from healing. Celiac and autoimmune conditions are profoundly sensitive to stress, and he has created a living hell designed to keep you sick, dependent, and broken. That smirk you described—that is the look of someone who enjoys having power over your suffering. Please know this: you do not deserve this. Not any of it. You deserve to eat. You deserve safe, clean food and water. You deserve medical care and supplements that help you function. You deserve peace. You deserve to heal. The woman from the food pantry is not a random accident. She is a lifeline. Her help, and the community she’s connecting you to, is real. It is okay to feel overwhelmed by kindness when you’ve been starved of it for so long. But you do deserve it. Let that be a sign that there is a world outside your house that operates on compassion, not control. Right now, your physical safety and access to nutrition are the most urgent priorities. The food pantry is a critical resource. Is there any way you can speak privately with the woman helping you? You don’t have to share everything at once, but letting her know your situation at home is extremely unsafe, and that your partner restricts your food, could help her support you in a more targeted way. She may have connections to local domestic violence services.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @JudyLou! There are a couple of things you might consider to help you in your decision that would not require you to do a gluten challenge. The first, that is if you have not had this test run already, is to request a "total IGA" test to be run. One of the reasons that celiac blood antibody tests can be negative, apart from not having celiac disease, that is, is because of IGA deficiency. If a person is IGA deficient, they will not respond accurately to the celiac disease blood antibody tests (such as the commonly run TTG-IGA). The total IGA test is designed to check for IGA deficiency. The total IGA test is not a celiac antibody test so I wouldn't think that a gluten challenge is necessary. The second is to have genetic testing done to determine if you have the genetic potential to develop celiac disease. About 30-40% of  the general population have the genetic potential but only about 1% actually develop celiac disease. So, genetic testing cannot be used to diagnose celiac disease but it can be used to rule it out. Those who don't have the genetic potential but still have reaction to gluten would not be diagnosed with celiac disease but with NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity).  Another possibility is that you do have celiac disease but are in remission. We do see this but often it doesn't last.
