Some ingredients in my coconut milk - advice please

[Freylah]

I can buy the Thai Gold but it's not always in stock and is twice the price so if this is sufficient as a back up that would be great

 

It contains

 

sodium carboxy methyl cellulose

mono-and Diglycerides if fatty acids

xanthan gum

 

Thanks

It should be noted that it states suitable for Vegans so the mono-and Diglycerides of fatty acids would be vegetable based (I'd hope!)

I'm trying very hard to avoid all sulfite, which seem to be in everything! Especially canned items, i.e. coconut milk. And I really need coconut milk on the Whole 30 to make it bearable.

 

But I found some coconut milk with NO ADDITIVES!

 

Hawaiian Sun brand--it is in the FREEZER section, in a square bag. The ingredients are simply: coconut milk, water. That's all!

 

I was first alerted to it when I saw Nom Nom Paleo blog post about frozen "fresh" coconut milk.

 

There is another brand, called "Profood Hawaii's Best" 100% PURE Coconut milk. The ingredients list is simply: coconut milk. YAY! No water, even! It is also in the FREEZER aisle. 

 

It may be a long shot to find it where you live, but good luck! Maybe in an international/imported foods store? ...
