What brands do you consider safe to have? I can't fathom why Soy Ice Cream or Soy milk cause problems for me, because they both are low in fat, and I handle Soy Sauce without a flinch.
If it's not the Soy, is there anything in Soy Ice Cream, or a true safe brand I could try to determine if it is me or the soy at blame? Thanks.

I am okay with Tofutti, but I don't think I'm as fat-sensitive as some. It's also the only one I've found that I truly like.

Yes, Tofutti works for me. Which makes me question if Soy really bothers me, if I could not handle Soy, wouldn't I have a problem with Tofutti?

That seems logical. I eat Tofutti and Soy Dream. Maybe there are some sort of sugars or sweeteners in it that bother you. I don't know, I'm just trying to throw ideas out.

Thanks.
When I had Tofutti, I had it in a small dose.
If you ever have gone to whole foods, they sell mini tofutti ice cream sandwiches.
I had two for several days, and had zero problems, this was 300 calories, a nice serving.
Is there any difference between Soy Dream Ice Cream and Tofutti which could cause the variation?
The only thing I could think of was Caarengean, but I know the Toffutti also contained that ingredient, maybe it's worth another try.

They do vary a bit. You'd have to check individual flavors to see exactly what you're eating. I have one of each in my freezer right now but they are two dif. flavors so I can't really compare them.

I actually tried Soy Delicious Ice Cream, and had no problems to report. My only issue is, the store I go to carries only a few limited flavors of Organic Soy and Fruit Sweetner. Purly Decandent Soy has too much fat, they have a lot of flavors in the less fat ones, but the store carries few.
Do any of you in Boston know of a better store?

I've had the Tofutti and it's OK for me. The soy I don't seem to like as much. But I can tolerate both, and prefer the Tofutti (vanilla fudge) Yummmm

or another ingredient.. I can't have most of them because I have only found 2 brands that don't have carageenan.. its actually easier though not that easy to find sorbets without it even chocolate then ice cream..
