I wish i had something to help you feel better.

Perhaps still keep applying and looking whilst your at the new place, but focus your search on something with animals.

Lol, I am faux-offended! I have had neither seitan nor tempeh in my 19 years as a vegetarian! Maybe I need to get out there more...

And I've read that it can take more than a month to clear out of your body. Maybe I should just try going GF again? Not sure.

Also, in the email search, I found that one of D's tests maybe 4 years ago had a potential marker for celiac. I'm not sure we ever pursued that further. Perhaps we should...

Well, don’t go gf if you’re going to be tested. It’ll throw the results off.

As for your daughter, I’ve read autistic childrens’ tests often show markers of gluten sensitivity, higher at least compared to non-autistic siblings’. There seems to be a link between the two conditions, maybe direct, maybe not.
Thanks for this!

Tempeh at least reminds me of the Bones heroine, who i loooooove. But seitan sounds like devil food!

Hail seitan!

Tempeh sounds weird in concept, fermented soybeans, but it's mild and a little nutty. Nothing like natto (which I didn't care for) which is also fermented soybeans. So good sauteed until its edges are getting crispy with a little salt. Yumm.
Thanks for this!

Yeah, bacon tempeh isnt BACON, but it's pretty darn good. Like you say, its got the crisp, its got the chew, its got the salt - pretty much everything but the squeal.
Thanks for this!

i did end up going to the other store in my town the one where you dont get hassled and are allowed to browse at your leisure and the people there are a bit more knowledgeable about their products becuase they obviously use them. they said they would get it in i wanted but pointed out a different brand that sounds likewhat i need. so i am trying that

They are wildly popular where I am located. Not necessarily for eating but for decorating
