    Update:
    Tried coconut aminos.
    Tried Bragg's Liquid Aminos.

    I use it for my keto stir fry with miracle rice/noodles.
    Bragg's Liquid Aminos taste just like soy sauce! Now we wait to see if the bloating will start... :neutral:

    @LolaDeeDaisy23 - How'd the bloating experiment go? Did you bloat or were you a bloat-free zone?

    @KnitOrMiss No bloat!! :) i have to be careful with sodium levels though.
    Too much sodium though and I retain water the next day. I went out to eat a chopped chicken salad and I added extra salsa, extra salt and pepper and I gained 3 pounds the next morning.

    There's always Gluten Free Tamari, you can even get "lite" tamari. Its a safe alternative to soy.

    Tamari is still soy. It is just wheat-free soy. The liquid aminos and coconut aminos are not soy.

    I have heard lots of negatives about soy sauce. I'm personally on the fence about it but I try to sub balsamic vinegar instead. Similar profile (sour and salty).

    Danger Will Robinson! Some balsamic vinegar = pretty sweet.

    Lol. That's why you food log. Read labels.

    Ummm, yep. Proper Balsamic Vinegar from Modena is like a tangy syrup. I have some 12 y.o. aged that you could pour on ice cream as a topping (and yes I have :o )
