Another alternative which is good and healthy is Bragg's Amino Acid. Taste just like soy in recipes, and easy to find in health food stores.

Unfortunately, this tastes nothing like soy sauce. It lacks the umami-richness soy is famous for (umami is the 5th basic taste, along with salty, sweet, sour and bitter). A common substitute for soy sauce is Maggi seasoning, which is available in most supermarkets. It's a staple in many European kitchens, and often used like soy sauce.

BEWARE, however, that different countries have different formulations, and some versions hydrolyze soy protein while others hydrolyze wheat. If you're allergic to soy, make sure to get the wheat version, he original German formulation.
