What do stirfries have to do with soy allergies? Use a different homemade
sauce...say a tomato or orange juice based sauce. There are other sauce
possibilities other than using soy based sauces.

Example: google up a version of a cranberry based sweet and sour
sauce...convert it to splenda. Ingredients...cranberry juice, vinegar,
splenda, corn starch and maybe sherry. Or mix some frozen oj concentrate
with some sherry, water and corn starch optional use of a hot sauce. Same
goes with frozen lime-ade or pineapple juice...yes there might be some
added sugar involved, but not a lot. There are valid other sauces for
stir fries...who says they have to be asian based sauces?
