I usually get Kikkoman (sp) soy sauce. I use regular old Heinz ketchup. You could probably be safer and buy some organic stuff at your HFS.
I have a few follow up questions.
1) Is the kikkoman sauce safe to use solo? Is it safer than say La Choy?
2) Here are some sauces I use, do they look safe, I do understand why they would cause problems
Frank's-Aged Cayenne Red Peppers, Vinegar, Water, Salt and Garlic Powder
Soy Vay-All Natural Ingedients: Preservative Free Soy Sauce (Water, Wheat, Soybeans, Salt), Sugar, Expelled pressed Soy Oil, Fresh Garlic, Seasme Seeds, Dried Onion, Fresh Ginger, Garlic Granules, Expelled Pressed Seasme Oil, Onion Powder, Garlic Powder
General Tso-Sugar, Water, Soy Sauce (Water, Soybeans, Wheat, Salt), Distilled White Vinegar, Tomato Paste, Red Chili Pepper/Garlic Blend, Cornstarch, Garlic Powder, Autolyzed Yeast Extract Ginger, Oyster Extract, Lemon Juice Concentrate, Xanthan Gum, Onion Powder, Citric Acid, Spice
3) Here is the weird and tricky thing.
When I marinate the chicken during the day in the Soy Vay or Hot Sauce, I do not get that bad if any reaction.
Further, when I eat out, and order chicken cooked with Hot or BBQ sauce, I also report no problems.
So I do not understand, with no preservatives in these sauces, maybe the Xanthum Gum, but that is only in the General Tso, why would these sauces bother me.
More importantly, why is it at a restaraunt ordering food with these exact sauces does not bother me?
Do they use something different at subway?
I don't get it.
Do any of you have this weird problem, and lastly, do Whole Foods organic sauces work better?

I personally would not be able to use the Frank's or the General Tso because of the chili peppers. I eat everything pretty bland and have never been able to stand hot or spicy food without a reaction. I also wouldn't be able to have the General Tso sauce because of the Autolyzed Yeast Extract. I am allergic to MSG and this is basically the same thing, different name.

sorry I only mentioned that I could not use those sauces not why some could be a problem for you.
Do you eat more of an SF buffer when you are in the restaurant that you wouldn't eat with the chicken when you are at home, say rice or potatoes or bread for example.
The other possibility and I know it sounds strange but I find that the time of day I eat something makes a difference on how my stomach reacts to it. I can usually get away with more at night then I can earlier in the day. My breakfasts and lunches are always small and super safe and then I eat a larger meal for dinner.
The other thing I thought of is the amount of sauce used. In a restaurant maybe the chicken is only glazed a bit with the sauce for the flavour whereas at home you mentioned you marinate it all day.
Hmm I am trying to throw some possiblities out there for you as you seem confused about it and I guess I am as well. I hope you figure it out and I hope I have helped a bit!
Good Luck,
Bethany

Everyone has posted some great ideas. Like you, I don't spend much time on cooking but here are my two cents:
My fave is fennel chicken - just sprinkle on fennel seeds, sea salt and freshly ground black pepper (if you can handle pepper) and stick it in the oven. Tastes great and the fennel helps bloating!
I also like to dip my chicken in a blend of dijon mustard/safe mayo, or eat it with an organic, additive-free cranberry/orange sauce that I buy at the health food store -it's like thanksgiving every day of the year!
Other ideas: cumin, rosemary/thyme/lemon, coriander/lime... in short, make friends with your spice rack. Best of luck!

I've never had any problems using Kikkoman solo on rice or noodles. I've never used La Choy.

Thanks for your suggestions.
Is it possible to have good tasting chicken without sauce?
I broil my chicken, and without sauce, it usually tastes quite bland.
Is baking better?
Also, what about health food store sauces?
Would they tend be safe?
What do you consider to be safe mayo and mustard?

I am not totally sure if they sell this all over the US or just in the northwest, I think all over.
This is great on Chicken and very IBS friendly.
It is produced by a company that makes it for the resturants I was a chef with for twenty years. Its excellent on chicken prawns ribs all kinds of things.
You can also order the products online.
But its "Jake's Orange Mango BBQ Glaze"

They have some good products.
There restaurants are now all over the country.
