[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have two kids with no allergies. My sister's kids have nut allergies and are lactose intolerant. When we vacation with them/visit them, we adopt their diet, no problem. It is no big deal to accommodate them for a few days. Then again, my kids are not picky eaters and do empathize with their cousins.[/quote]
I don't think eliminating nuts and lactose is nearly as difficult as removing gluten from your diet. Try it for a few days and get back to me.[/quote]
