Does anyone buy gluten-free and dairy free cheese in Australia?

Where do you get it? Woolies? Coles?

What brand?

I cant seem to find anything...not even a soy cheese.

Ive been gluten-free for months and am now going lactose free aswell...I will dearly miss cheese. :-(

Gluten free cheese is very easy as nearly all cheese is gluten free. Diary free is harder but the problem is that often soy products have gluten in them (such as soy milk). There should be a diary or lactose free cheese in the diary section of the supermarket. Then all you need to do is check the label to make sure there is no gluten in it. By law all labels in Australia must state is there is an allergy causing ingredient such as wheat, milk etc. so reading the label should be easy. Also I am under the impression that certain cheeses (especially hard cheeses such as parmesan) are very low in lactose. You might need to research that further.

If you mean cow free that's easier again.

Goats and Sheep cheese are OK for people with a dairy allergy (like me)

usually in the form of fetta, can be found at Woollies...

however there is a little sheeps cheese/ice-cream/wine maker who sends aound the country located in southern Tas called Grandvewe which caters for the lactose intolerant.

You might find your cheese there!

You can get goats hard cheese too... but I'm yet to find one.

      Thanks a lot! I will search that too. I also talked to another doctor and she assured me there is no gluten in this type of antibiotics. Anyway i started the administration of Augmentin on my girl this evening. I hope there will be no problems.

      Good afternoon, I don’t know if anyone here has ever tried Braswell’s products like their marmalades or jellies? Are they gluten-free? On the ingredients says “cane sugar, cherries (cherries, cane sugar), strawberries, corn syrup, pectin and citric acid. That ingredient list is from their berry preserve bottle. Most of them say the same for ingredients, but I’m not sure if it is okay to consume.

      I have seen this problem many times. I always get in touch with the company. Most times they tell me if I'm just gluten free it is ok, but do not eat it if you are celiac. Calling the company is the best way when you are not sure. Yesterday I had a different example of products being marked gluten-free.  I love chocolate and have a piece each day. The chocolate bar I like is Chocolove. When I bought one this week it was not marked gluten-free. I called the company to find out why and if it was still gluten-free.  Turns out the manufacturer decided there was too much on the wrapper and took off the gluten-free label. It is made in a dedicated gluten-free facility.
