Hi

I have many food allergies, thisis how i get round them

if you have a sweet tooth asda do rocky road bars in their special food range, expensive at 1,76 but they give me my choc fix

I have goats cheese and milk as great for allergies

I dont like any of the bread, so I make my own with special flour

My gluten allergy is awful, had it diagnosed with york allergy test, reliable. I have no colon also so have to be very careful. Feel better without gluten, it is in everything even sausage skins

Has anyone tried the genius bread? i've got the £1 voucher but wondered whether it was worth getting? i am new to this and am still waiting for my biopsy results for Coeliacs but wanted to see whats out there!
thanks in advance

My eight year old daughter gives this bread the thumbs up, we get six loaves each month on perscription of the 400g version. We freeze them all the same day they arrive and then get them out as and when needed. She says they make a good bacon sandwich and dont fall apart for packed lunches.

As she is dairy and gluten free she was unable to eat any of the other fresh versions, and all the ones she was aloud were best used as toast.

Please be very careful with shop bread. The stuff from the bakery - not ready packaged 'sliced' type - can contain milk powder and all sorts of other nasties. Bakery bread for some peculiar reason does not need to be labelled, unlike ready packaged bread.

I always make my own bread in a BM as I know exactly what is in it. It's a lot of money up-front, but worth it. Home-made bread freezes well. I just slice it, then freeze portions for toast, sarnies, etc.

Another warning - Thai foods. Some restaurants and ready meals dilute the coconut milk with dairy milk because it's cheaper. Always ask at restaurants and check labels.

Asda still doing the fresh alpro soya milk for 90p
Both blue and red one.
Or just buy from Tesco and make sure you keep the receipt for price checker online and claim the difference

Hi

Great thread! My dd also has a severe dairy/egg allergy. There are lots of equivalent dairy free options out there without always having to buy from the expensive 'free from' range. Like a pp said you just have to read all the labels! Lots of shops own 'basics' brands are dairy free.

• We use Asda's soya milk 88p
• Most breads are dairy free.
• Asda's own soya yoghurts as mentioned earlier
• Asda SP digestive, tea, bourbon and fruit shortie biscuits.
• Tesco's basic victoria sponge cake mix is good and works without adding egg. 22p
• Heinz tomato sauce has no milk
• Pure marg or Vitalite
• Stork for baking
• Cadbury's drinking chocolate powder for mixing with soya milk or in cakes?
• Holland and Barrett have various soya cheeses. I stock up when they have the buy 1 get one half price.
• Swedish Glace vanilla ice cream £2ish from sainsburys, asda and tesco. Sainsburys have choc, strawberry an dvanilla dairy free ice cream at £3.99 for a small tub.
• Dairy free choc buttons 42p in Sainsburys, Asda and Tesco.
• After eight chocs are dairy free

After 8 have changed their recipe, they are no longer dairy free
