Daiya Cheese

I have just heard about this non-dairy guten free cheese product. It is carried at Whole Foods and is a bit pricey. I was wondering if anyone had tried it and what you thought of it. I am dreaming of some quinoa pasta mixed with non-dairy margarine and stringy cheese....*sigh*

I've had the mozzarella. It's quite good, though a bit on the salty side. Maybe it's just me because I haven't really read anywhere about it being salty, but to me it most definitely is.

That's not to say it isn't good, however. It's very tasty and it's very stringy. It makes excellent grilled cheese! I just can't use it for nachos because the salt on the chips plus the salty cheese just overpower it way too much.

I really like the Daiya cheese. We've used the cheddar and Italian blend. I like it much better than Follow Your Heart. My kid who isn't lactose intolerant (like the rest of us are) says he thinks it's just as good as "cow cheese".

We made a gluten-free, mac & cheese on Friday using this cheese, some almond milk, garlic powder, onion powder, and some Parma vegan parmesan. It was really good. (The Parma is also gluten free.)

I've used it on a pizza. I also thought it was salty, but fine. I'd use it again, and I think pasta would be a particularly good fit.

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.

      While it's always important to approach internal use of essential oils with caution and ideally under the guidance of a qualified professional, your experience highlights the potential of complementary approaches when traditional medicine falls short. Many in the community are also interested in the intersection of natural wellness and gluten-free living, particularly for managing systemic inflammation and its various symptoms, so sharing your story is valuable. Your observation that it may also be helping with bloating is fascinating, as that could point to an overall reduction in inflammation. Thank you for sharing what is working for you!
