Comments for Mamarati http://mamarati.com/blogs I've completely lost my friggin' mind Wed, 10 Mar 2010 11:47:42 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7 hourly 1 Comment on Corn-Free / Egg-Free List by ashley moreno http://mamarati.com/blogs/corn-free-egg-free-list/comment-page-1#comment-326 ashley moreno Mon, 03 Aug 2009 03:08:37 +0000 http://mamarati.com/blogs/corn-free-egg-free-list/#comment-326 Thank you Mamarati!!! My 4 year old son, who has Down syndrome, has a severe corn intolerance. He can't even tolerate meat, dairy, or egg from corn-fed animals, and has problems with cereals that technically don't have corn ingredients, but whose manufactures also produce corn-containing varieties. It's sad, because so far I have a list of only about 8 foods he can eat (the corn-based wax on grocery store produce affects him, but hopefully I can start making trips to the farmers' market and expand his reperatoire), and he's getting to the age where he notices that what we're eating looks better than his! I also have a 5yr old daughter w/ a peanut allergy, and I'll tell you what--Down syndrome is a walk in the park compared to food issues!!! Question: do you know if the egg used in the allergy testing would be affected by the corn in the chickens' feed? I'm curious, because we are looking into getting chickens to raise corn-free eggs for my son. Thanks again for a great list! Thank you Mamarati!!!
