I always hated cooking, and that was "before"... when cooking was much less of a hassle than it is now. <br /><br />I struggle with Corn Free baking, but that's mostly because I'm Egg Allergic too. I just can't seem to make anything properly with egg substitutes.<br /><br />As far as Namaste Foods, I go out of my way to support small companies who are friendly to the allergy community. But I don't understand their reluctance to provide this information and the only thing to ever assume is that a food is NOT safe. Assuming a food IS safe just gets us sick :(Sharon Rosenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02118844417470939780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487889400956965761.post-48297957922747603782010-06-06T18:19:57.535-05:002010-06-06T18:19:57.535-05:00I get so upset by these types of responses.

I try to rely on as few packaged products as possible so that I don't have to deal with these companies. I have learned to distrust the answers I am given, anyway. I just avoid any product with a single questionable ingredients and some just because of the brand name.<br /><br />I started out making everything from scratch since I didn't have any specialty products available locally. Now I can whip out baked goods so fast a mix would only slow me down.kristyrealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01112897104450770951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487889400956965761.post-81106660113235049192010-06-03T08:58:27.326-05:002010-06-03T08:58:27.326-05:00This saddens me.

(we've NEVER had a reaction and when I first started eliminating corn from my sons diet we pretty much lived on their stuff) But it's sad that they won't give a direct answer. I wonder if perhaps they change sources often and thus won't say because it is only going to change? I know a lot of companies do that.cornfreeeathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06837903293987333052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487889400956965761.post-66381395491578491992010-06-02T17:11:06.594-05:002010-06-02T17:11:06.594-05:00I've been wondering about Daiya.

When you find out about their Xanthan Gum, I'd love to know!! <br /><br />I'm glad you find the site useful ;-) Avoiding corn is indeed very tricky!Sharon Rosenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02118844417470939780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2487889400956965761.post-31598879099460914792010-06-02T14:22:37.397-05:002010-06-02T14:22:37.397-05:00So frustrating!

They have a display at whole foods claiming they're corn free but xanthan gum is an ingredient. I emailed them my question, never got a response, but started getting unsolicited marketing materials from them. Sigh.<br /><br />My daughter us allergic to wheat, soy, oats, corn, milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, sesame, and grapes. Corn has been very hard to avoid, I am still learning. Thank you for your site!hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14301141371418445733noreply@blogger.com
