Metallic Soy Sauce?

hi there all,

I found a wheat free soy sauce, and I was really excited that I would be able to do sushi with soy sauce again. I tried it out last night on some brown rice... It was soooooo bad. Like sucking on a penny. Left my mouth tasting dirty. I don't know how else to explain it. :lol: I have to laugh about it. This is the first time I have written on celiac.com about something that I wasn't about to cry over.

Guess I have to wonder if it was a bad bottle or the whole brand.

I like the San J brand but have had bad, almost rancid bottles of others

where do you get San J brand..... aw man. That's the one I tried last night. I guess I should try it on WHITE rice before I write it off. I took it to a friends house because she was serving brown rice. I don't tend to eat a lot of brown rice. I will try again.

Are there any other brands you have liked.... that were not rancid? lol

What other brands did you find that didn't taste bad? did you like any others? The brand you said you like is the one that just doesn't work for me.

Try Bragg Liquid Aminos if you don't like SanJ brand. La Choy soy sauce is gluten free.

It could be you have a Systemic yeast/Candida infection causing the funny taste. Very common with celiacs.

Where do I find that brand?

I find the regular San-J tamari too strong, and use the reduced sodium variety. Tastes great to me. (I do keep it in the fridge, of course.)

I couldn't find gluten free, in low sodium. I wish I could find a way to try them all without buying the entire bottle. It cost so much as it is, to be gluten free. <_< I will have to look some more for that one.

Oh and I am always good about keeping it in the refrigerator. It drives my hubby crazy. :P

your right the stuff is expensive -- I was buying it at the local grocery until I saw it at the health food store for $1. less.

We lao have San J in 2 sizes. I've not had the LaChoy in awhile since its not sold in my part of hawaii. I do have some other 100% soy brands from japan.

I also like the Braggs that was mentioned. The liquid Aminos is good but I love the apple cider vinegar they have and mix that in salad dressings. I've never kept San J in the fridge.

If we go for Sushi without planning ahead I just use a piece if gari ginger instead of shoyu ( soy sauce)

Good luck

      Get tested for vitamin deficiencies. Though neuropathy can be a symptom of celiac, it can also be caused by deficiencies due to poor digestion caused by celiac and could be easier to treat.

      We feel your pain. It took me 20+ years of regularly going to doctors desperate for answers only to be told there was nothing wrong with me … when I was 20 pounds underweight, suffering from severe nutritional deficiencies, and in a great deal of pain. I had to figure it out for myself. If you're in the U.S., not having an official diagnosis does mean you can't claim a tax deduction for the extra expense of gluten-free foods. But it can also be a good thing. Pre-existing conditions might be a reason why a health insurance company might reject your application or charge you more money. No official diagnosis means you don't have a pre-existing condition. I really hope you don't live in the U.S. and don't have these challenges. Do you need an official diagnosis for a specific reason? Else, I wouldn't worry about it. As long as you're diligent in remaining gluten free, your body should be healing as much as possible so there isn't much else you could do anyway. And there are plenty of us out here who never got that official diagnosis because we couldn't eat enough gluten to get tested. Now that the IL-2 test is available, I suppose I could take it, but I don't feel the need. Someone else not believing me really isn't my problem as long as I can stay in control of my own food.

      If you're just starting out in being gluten free, I would expect it to take months before you learned enough about hidden sources of gluten before you stopped making major mistakes. Ice cream? Not safe unless they say it is gluten free. Spaghetti sauce? Not safe unless is says gluten-free. Natural ingredients? Who knows what's in there. You pretty much need to cook with whole ingredients yourself to avoid it completely. Most gluten-free products should be safe, but while you're in the hypersensitive phase right after going gluten free, you may notice that when something like a microwave meal seems to not be gluten-free … then you find out that it is produced in a shared facility where it can become contaminated. My reactions were much-more severe after going gluten free. The analogy that I use is that you had a whole army of soldiers waiting for some gluten to attack, and now that you took away their target, when the stragglers from the gluten army accidentally wander onto the battlefield, you still have your entire army going out and attacking them. Expect it to take two years before all of the training facilities that were producing your soldiers have fallen into disrepair and are no longer producing soldiers. But that is two years after you stop accidentally glutening yourself. Every time you do eat gluten, another training facility can be built and more soldiers will be waiting to attack. Good luck figuring things out.
