  • White chocolate

    Does anyone have a suggestion for a brand of white chocolate? Every kind I’ve come across has soy lecithin in it, even the organic/natural kinds.

        white chocolate

        Hi,

        I'm fine with Lindt white chocloate bars, Lindt Excellence white choclate bars (they have real vanilla), and Lindt white chocloate and almond bars. Also I can eat/use in recipes Chipits white chocolate chips.

          Yeah--I haven't been able to find a kit-kat (white) either. I just thought the grocery store was out when I looked. Guess not.

            I do okay with the white reeses, kitkat, twix or crunch bars. Seems they're making everything in white chocolate now. I think that some of the white chocolate candies, like the kitkats, were just a promotional thing. I'll check tomorrow (I work in a grocery store) and see if that's the case to the missing kitkats! Also, have you tried the hershey's cookies and creme bars? they only have a tiny percent of chocolate in them.

              The white chocolate kit kats do have soy lecithin in them, but my bladder does not react to that (just plain soy--allergy). I get them at Walgreens, Longs Drugs, sometimes Albertson's.

                  Hi,

                  The organic Green and Black's white chocolate bars at whole foods are the best for my symptoms. They are a bit pricey--but, I don't mind splurging when I'm going through a bad patch, want something with chocolate, and don't want to gamble in any way.

                  Hope you find lots of good options that work for you!
                  Best wishes, little bear

                    I think white chocolate pretty much has to have soy lecithin in it. Too much soy is one of my few food triggers, but soy lecithin doesn't bother me.
