Customs regulations — is coconut milk ok to bring in?

I've been searching online on the customs website but couldn't find anything on coconut milk or other plant based milks, are these allowed to bring to Taiwan if commercially packaged and shelf-stable? Does it need to be declared?

I'm suffering from celiac disease and had ordered the gluten free meal for my flight. The tray was labelled as gluten free, but I noticed that the menu had a different main meal listed than what I received. I asked one of the flight attendants what's going on, but I was assured by him and another flight attendant that the meal is indeed gluten free and I ate about half of it. It turned out to be the children's meal instead which included bread that was not gluten free. I had terrible stomach pain for the rest of the day and the crew seemed not to care much about their mistake. I was offered free water and another gluten free meal from business class but I'm sure the permanent damage to my health was already done. I had not eaten gluten for nearly 10 years before this. Is there anything I can do?
