Vitalite is the only one which does not contain soya, which is also a known aggravant, don't know quite how you want to phrase that. I use Tescos wheat free flour, simply because it gives a better result than any other flour mixes I have tried

I use rice milk instead of soya or dairy milk. Tastes much better and even cooks up well. Actually just thought of something, I have some rice milk rice pudding my carer made me. Grate some dark chocolate over it mmmmm
