WHERE CAN YOU BUY VEGAN WORCESTERSHIRE SAUCE?

We have started to finally find vegan Worcestershire in our local stores, but before that we found on Amazon or Thrive Market.  We used the Annie’s brand for this particular recipe.null

Is this Vegan Bean Soup Top 8 Allergen Friendly?

The only ingredient here that has Top 8 allergens is the Worcestershire sauce. You could just omit that ingredient entirely. 

You can use this gluten free vegan Worcestershire sauce if gluten is your only allergen. 

We have not seen a soy and gluten free worcestershire sauce; however, you could make a gluten and soy free Worcestershire sauce and then sub the coconut aminos and coconut sugar for No soy sauce and brown sugar.
