Re: Holy food allergies Batman!!!

Shonda,

You know you're more likely to develop allergies to the foods you eat

regularly, so the egg allergy shouldn't be that surprising! That's

why some people rotate all their foods. When I had intradermal

allergy testing a few months ago my worst foods were chocolate, whey

and rice, then casein, and a little less were wheat, corn, lentils,

blueberries and cinnamon. I haven't had any grains or chocolate in 2

years, so it was surprising that the allergies to them are so enduring!
