[quote=Anonymous]DC is very allergic to egg -- like most kids with this, DC also reacts to gelatin, which is a base for marshmellows. We go to Mom's as well as the Co-op for vegan options. And for those who've decided that snark is better than silence (about something that absolutely does not impact you, except to have gotten your attention as a way of getting attention for yourself): get over yourselves. It's really, really tough to navigate food allergies and I'm sure it's equally tough to navigate dietary restrictions based on principles. It's particularly hard when your children can't have some of the same choices as other children and although they're awfully mature and patient and understand that they'll get sick if they eat XX food, it's still tough. Sorry -- I'm having a tough mom night after a long week and basically already feeling like DC misses out on enough due to food restrictions (given the role that food plays socially, for good or ill); encountering a sanctimonious post just really set me off tonight.....[/quote]
