I read about this elsewhere on this forum. I'll be danged if I can find the thread now though.

I finally found some at QFC. It seems they are the only store in the Seattle area that sells it. It was on sale too. Bought two bottles, one for the big fridge and one for daughter's little fridge.

It tasted just fine. Like butter. But it did leave an oddly sweet taste in my mouth that I can't get rid of.

I am concerned though because it said "natural flavors" on it. Would it have to list dairy if the natural flavors came from butter? It seems too good to be true.

It is dairy free--I contacted the company (I started the post you may be referring to). And it's also gluten-free and soy free. I started using it a week ago, and I love it! I've missed butter very much. It is rather sweet, but hey, I'll take what I can get! Enjoy!

I'm going to check this one out for sure! I've been using coconut oil for everything, and it would be nice to change it up! I can't have dairy, or soy either....thanks for finding out for us!

ps....does dairy free also mean casein free???

Yep, dairy free means casein free, though lactose free doesn't necessarily mean casein/dairy free. It can all be confusing!

I hope you find it in stores near you! I'm putting this stuff on everything this past week because I've missed butter so much!

Due to the FDA food allergen labeling law, the 8 main allergens must be clearly listed. Dairy is one of them, and so it would have to be listed if it was included in the ingredients.

This is what they emailed me when I contacted them:

product does not contain dairy (casein), gluten or soy.

I found it at Kroger and have seen it in several of their stores. It's the only place I've ever seen it.

      Years of testing - no real answers

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Kiwifruit, I agree further testing is needed.  Disaccharidase deficiency is a symptom of Celiac disease.   On your test results, this line  "IgA: 0.9 g/l (norm 0.8 - 4.0)" is referring to Total IgA and it's very low.  People with low or deficient Total IgA should also have DGP IgG test done.  Low Total IgA means you are making low levels of tTg  IgA as well, leading to false negatives or "weak positives".  Maybe a DNA test for known Celiac genes.   Anemia, diabetes, and thiamine deficiency can cause test results like these.  Get checked for B12 deficiency anemia and have your iron (ferritin) checked.  Vitamin D deficiency is common, too.   Might be time to find a gastrointestinal doctor who is more familiar with diagnosing Celiac Disease.   Best wishes on your journey!  Please keep us posted on your progress.

      Celiac Test Results - Thoughts?

      By trents · Posted

      Yes, there is a trend in the medical community to forego the endoscopy/biopsy and grant an official celiac diagnosis based on high tTG-IGA antibody scores alone. This trend started in the UK and is spreading to the USA medical community. And yes, 5-10x the normal level is what I have been seeing as the threshold as well. Here is the relevant section dealing from the article above dealing with the importance of the total IGA test being ordered. See the embedded attachment.

      Ok, interesting. Not what I was thinking that meant. I'm reading the article and trying to understand. I see this “According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy” My IgG is 90, which is 6 times. So to me that means it's highly likely I do have it.

      It just means you aren't IGA deficient, i.e., that IGA deficiency cannot have given you artificially low scores in the individual IGA celiac antibody tests. This is explained in the article Scott linked above.

      Normal range: 70 - 400 mg/dL, a little above middle of the range. So what does that mean? Thank you! I will check out that page you linked. Appreciate it!
