Daiya Cheese!

We were at the Health Food Store last week and I asked about a cheese that was gluten, dairy and soy-free. She said they had just ordered some called Daiya and would call when it came in. The store called the other day, so I went and got it. I used it for the first time today and it was pretty good!! I made grilled cheese. Used Kinnikinnick Brown Bread and Daiya Cheddar. The boys loved it and I have to say it satisfied a craving I've had for a while! Now I have to get some more pizza crust, so I can try the mozzarella!

What's it made of? Their site doesn't list ingredients. I have restrictions that go beyond dairy and soy and it would be nice to have some kind of "cheese" again.

I had it on a pizza last night. Not bad. Not the same as regular mozzarella, but it'll do. :)

Ok so I just bought some. Made nachos. It's REALLY salty. Smells fantastic, but you can't use salty chips if you're making nachos. It just overpowers you.

That said though, the stuff is fantastic. Smells greatttt and I love it. <3 YAYYYY.

What's the nutritional breakdown? (I'm thinking calories/protein/fat/carbs.) Thanks!

      Blood results

      Thanks for your reply. She has been given a date for her endoscopy, 28th of this month, so hopefully she’ll know for sure if she definitely has coeliac. Needless to say she’s dreading it!!!!

      That is more than 10x the standard range, so a strong positive. In the UK for children and adults under the age of 55, at least 10x the standard range is sufficient to be diagnosed without having an endoscopy. The NICE guidelines are are different for children in that a referral to a gastroenterologist is also recommended for diagnosis. https://www.coeliac.org.uk/healthcare-professionals/diagnosis/how-to-test/ https://www.coeliac.org.uk/healthcare-professionals/diagnosis/diagnosis-in-children/

      Diagnosed w Celiacs, but reacting to gluten-free Digiorno Pizza AND Kraft Zesty Italian Dressing

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome, @annamarie6655, I followed the AIP diet, too.  It allows the intestines time to heal.  I still avoid a lot of processed foods.  Once you get used to eating whole foods, they taste better than processed foods. I couldn't eat pepperoni without becoming ill.  Pepperoni is a processed meat that uses "meat glue" to hold its shape.  "Meat glue" is microbial transglutaminase produced by microbes in a lab.  Transglutaminase produced by microbes works the same in our bodies as tissue transglutaminase, which causes inflammation.  Remember those antibody blood tests, tTg IgA and tTg IgG?  They test for tissue transglutaminase produced by the body in response to gluten.  The microbial transglutaminase provokes the same response in our bodies as if exposed to gluten.  Best to avoid processed meat products like formed chicken nuggets, luncheon meats, formed hams, sausage, etc.   Best wishes.

      How to work through food paranoia

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the tribe! Do discuss the Autoimmune Protocol Diet (Dr. Sarah Ballantyne) with your dietician.  The AIP diet helps while the intestines are healing, lowering potential to develop other food sensitivities.  Be sure to discuss supplementing with vitamins and minerals.  Damaged intestines don't absorb essential nutrients well.  Supplementing while healing boosts absorption and provides vitamins needed for repair.
