The first grocery shopping trip my husband and I did, after finding out about my intolerances, took about four hours because we would read the ingredients off of almost every item looking for something that would make life a little easier. I love to cook but it's very time consuming. With the help of my family and friends I've been able to find and compile a decent list of everyday items. Here is a list of places and food items that I've found work for me. Most of these can be found in the natural section of the stores but some are regular items. I would suggest always checking the ingredient lists on these items but for me and my food intolerances ( dairy, soy and sugar) they work.
Sobey's
*BBQ Sauce- Hunny Bunny
*Ketchup-Hunny Bunny
*Vanilla or Original Rice Dream Rice Milk ( although I think Superstore sells it cheaper unless its on sale at Sobeys)
*Honeybar snack bars- they come in apple cinnamon or peanut ( I think there might be some other flavors but those are my favs)
*Maple Sugar (to bake with) can be found in the produce section -the the maple section... this can also be bought at the Acadian Maple Farms factory out by peggys cove. You get more for a cheaper price. I think its worth the drive if you bake alot. This can be very expensive!
*R.W Knudsen Spritzer- My fav is grape but they come in all kinds of flavors. Its a great treat when you are craving something like pop but can't have it!
*Sobeys Our Compliments natural roasted red pepper hummus! YUM-O! My fav!
*Rustic Garlic Loaf- it is a sobeys brand but its so good!
*Natures Path Fruit Juice Sweetened Corn Flakes- you can buy these in two sizes the bag is better cost wise and again this is another item that you can buy cheaper (usually) at Super Store.
*Chips- Ruffles/Lays make natural chips. Its not hard to miss them because they are labeled at NATURAL.
*Tostitos- natural yellow corn chip
*Salsa-this is their organic brand
*Oasis Juice-very tasty and many different flavors. Great to add to fruit smoothies.
*McCain french fries-crinkle cut ( could be other cuts too, I haven't checked)
*Jam- St Dalfour. Lots and Lots of flavors.
*Becel RSF butter ( this has .02% soybean oil but I've found that it doesn't bother me)
Super Store-
*Barbaras Multigrain Cereal Bars-They come in three flavors and have been a staple in my life.
*Rice Dream Rice milk
*Cereal- Superstore brand Naturals 7 Reasons. Very tasty!
*Cereal-Natures Path Fruit Juice Sweetened Corn Flakes
*PC Blue Menu fruit fizzy drinks. They come in 4 flavors and again a good treat.
*PC Blue Menu Tomatoe and Basil sphagetti sauce
*Becel RSF butter ( this has .02% soybean oil but I've found that it doesn't bother me)
Pete's Frootique
Pete's has a few of the items mentioned above so just check while your there
* Carrs crackers
*Sorbet- I think its called Solo fruit... check the ingredients ... but its super tasty and was great throughout the summer.
Whole Foods
* Rice Twice Cereal
*Coconut Dream Ice Cream- Pretty Awesome!
*Jam- St Dalfour
I'm sure there are other items out there but these are the ones I find I buy frequently. I'm always on the lookout for new items. It seems more and people are developping these intolerances so hopefully more things will be made for us!:)
