Does anybody know what brands/ types of soy sauce are gluten free? I was diagnosed last week, and as a condiment fiend, I would aprecciate suggestions. Are there any gluten-free condiment brands?

I use San J Wheat free Tamari Soy Sauce. It's expensive but wonderful. Because I really missed my soy sauce, before I found it. Shirley :D

Hi All!

I use San-J also, it has the best flavor I think. I have a gal in one of my gluten-free cooking classes that says that the Amino Acid one is gluten-free and really good. But to give you one more option, LaChoy brand is also gluten free, but it's not as good as San-J in my opinion.

Also, San-J has a gluten free and low sodium variety which is great for those of us watching out blood pressure.

LK,

May I suggest Eden Organic Tamari Soy Sauce, it's quite tasty! I've always been pretty particular about soy sauce, Kikkomans my brand (ex). The few unfortunate times I got cheap and tried something such as Kroger brand, I quickly returned it for a refund.

Is the Edens gluten-free? You tell me. Here's the ingredients:

~ water

~ organic soybeans

~ sea salt

~ alcohol (to preserve freshness)

~ Koji

ORGANIC TAMARI

"Eden Tamari is the type of soy sauce that is characterized as Wheat Free. It's fermented more quickly than traditional tamari. Koji inoculated soybeans are aged for six months in this accelerated brewing process. Tamari was originally the by-product of miso making. Today it is mash brewed. Tamari imparts a stronger more pronounced flavor like that of miso. Compare it to some Eden Shoyu, is our request."

"Meticulous tracking and audited records guarantee the purity of this food from the farm to your table."

Eden Foods Inc. Clinton, Michigan.

OK, so there you go. It's more expensive (about $4.50). I think I got it at Central Market or Whole Foods. I have no idea what Koji, miso, or Shoyu are. Nor had I ever even heard of Tamari prior to looking at this bottle. Also to be fair, this is the only gluten-free brand I've tried, so can't comment on San J or La Choy.

I use La Choy Soy Sauce. You can get it in most grocery stores.

I use San-J's low-sodium wheat free tamari, and Bragg's amino acids - depending on the purpose.

Braggs is gluten free and since it is not fermented is good to use on a candida diet as well.

I grew up using Kikkoman and always preferred it over La Choy. If your favorite soy sauce is La Choy, you're in luck because it's gluten-free.

If you prefer Kikkoman, get the San-J that everyone mentions. To me, it tastes almost exactly like Kikkoman. Make sure you get the Wheat Free kind because not all their soy sauce gluten-free.

That Eden's Organic sounds pretty good too. I'll have to try that next time.

That's strange. I replied to Libbyk 's post this morning. But it was on the normal forum (at least I thought it was). Guess that's what I get for getting up at 4:30 this morning. Sorry all!

best regards, lm

p.s., Boy, ya can't get anything past happygirl. She's one smart gluten-free cookie!

LM,

Hey, its all still good to know information and I am sure that it has helped someone out there! Who knows how it turned up? :)

If I have my choice, I'll prefer to be a smart gluten free chocolate chip cookie...I'm craving those for some reason! :lol:

Have a great weekend!

Does anyone know if Lachoy is REALLY gluten-free? I grew up loving this stuff and I swear I get a reaction from it. I don't have any problems with soy. I even called their 1 800 number and everything.

I don't know, maybe I just had some CC!

:( I have to add the thought that there might be a chance you have an allergy to Monosodium Glutamate MSG as well... I am lucky enough to not only be diabetic and a Celiac sufferer... but I have the MSG allergy and Lactose intolerance as well.... sucks to be me!! lol! Try and see if avoiding the MSG will help!

I've always used LaChoy (low sodium) and have been using it like water scince gluten free 24 days ago (yay!)... no problems at all.

Sorry to hear your having problems though.... I'd die without my soy sauce!

      celiac disease and braces

      Hello, My 17 yr old daughter was diagnosed with celiac disease 2 yrs ago. She does not have gum disease and no history of cavities. Her dentist is recommending braces for her lower teeth but I read it may worsen gum recession or possibly increase cavity risk which I know are already issues for patients with celiac. Has anyone here had braces and...

      Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread - Now Egg Free - Completely Ruined It

      This is a common experience across the board with various brands of gluten-free bread products. Prices go up, size goes down. Removal of the egg component may be for the purpose of cost-cutting related to bird flu supply shortages or it may be catering to those with egg allergy/sensitivity, fairly common in the celiac community.

      Years ago a friend and I drove north into Canada hoping to find a ski resort open in late spring,We were in my VW and found a small ski area near a small town and started up this gravelled road up a mountain.

      Your Complete Gluten-Free Thanksgiving Plan: Recipes, Tips & Holiday Favorites

      Wow what a helpful article!! I am just seeing this now but I hosted a small group of family for Thanksgiving at my house this year and I did some of these things- got a butterball gluten-free turkey, got gluten-free stuffing, had a few gluten-free sides, and a gluten-free nothing-Bundt-cake. I had other non gluten-free things there too for others, and I also...

Her dentist is recommending braces for her lower teeth but I read it may worsen gum recession or possibly increase cavity risk which I know are already issues for patients with celiac. Has anyone here had braces and did it cause any problems or issues with gum recession?  Her dentist seemed oblivious that celiac patients are at higher risk of gum disease /cavities. Her bottom teeth are crooked but are pretty hidden even when she smiles. Thank you!!

      Living with Coeliac Disease since birth, Bread has always been an issue, never too nice, small slices and always overpriced, But Sainsbury's Free From White Sliced Bread seemed to me to be an exception with it's large uniform 12 x 12cm slices that had the bounce, texture and taste of white bread even after toasting with no issue that it was also Milk Free. Unfortunately Sainsbury's have changed the recipe and have made it 'Egg Free' too and it has lost everything that made the original loaf so unique. Now the loaf is unevenly risen with 8 x 8cm slices at best, having lost it's bounce with the texture dense and cake like after toasting resembling nothing like White Bread anymore. Unsure as to why they have had to make it 'Egg Free' as the price is the same at £1.90 a loaf. Anyone else experiencing the same issue with it? - also any recommendations for White Bread that isn't prescription? / Tesco's / Asda's are ok but Sainsbury's was superior.

      Years  ago a friend and I drove north into Canada hoping to find a ski resort open in late spring,We were in my VW and found a small ski area near a small town and started up this gravelled road up a mountain. We  got about halfway up and got stuck in the mud. We tried everything we could think of but an hour later we were still stuck. Finally a pickup came down the road, laughed at our situation, then pulled the VW free of the mud. We followed him back to the ski area where where he started up the rope ski lift and we had an enjoyable hour of skiing and gave us a shot of aquavit  before we left.It was a great rescue.  In some ways this reminds me of your situation. You are waiting for a rescue and you have chosen medical practitioners to do it now or as soon as possible. As you have found out the med. experts have not learned how to help you. You face years of continuing to feel horrible, frustrated searching for your rescuer to save you. You can break away from from this pattern of thinking and you have begun breaking  away by using some herbs and supplements from doTerra. Now you can start trying some of the suggestions thatother Celiacs have written to your original posts.  You live with other people who eat gluten foods. Cross contamination is very possible. Are you sure that their food is completely separate from their food. It  is not only the gluten grains you need to avoid (wheat, barley, rye) but possibly oats, cows milk also. Whenever you fall back into that angry and frustrated way of thinking get up and walk around for a whild. You will learn ways to break that way of thinking about your problems.  Best wishes for your future. May you enjpy a better life.

      Are Lindt chocolate balls gluten free?

      By marion wheaton · Posted

      Thanks for responding. I researched further and Lindt Lindor chocolate balls do contain barely malt powder which contains gluten. I was surprised at all of the conflicting information I found when I checked online.
