I've been active in the online food allergy community for about 16 years now! There are a lot of food allergy organizations and websites nowadays--a great many more than when my son was first diagnosed all those years ago--but there are only a small handful that provide information that is consistently accurate and objective. Which ones have the most reliable and objective information, and practical food allergy management tips? My current top picks are the following. These websites will help you empower yourself and not live in fear! Asthma and Allergy Foundation of Am ..read more

It rained all day yesterday and it is dark and overcast today. Temps are in the 50s. Not exactly inspiring for a weekend that historically is sunny and full of cookouts and other outdoor activities. I have no big news to share, just sharing a small simple joy. This morning, we checked the ingredients for butternut doughnuts sold by Dunkin Donuts and found a very recent (May 2021) ingredient list. It's been ..read more
