What allergens do you avoid?

[hk]

We avoid trace amounts of peanuts, all tree nuts, eggs and sesame.  We avoid cherry, mango, avocado, fish and shellfish.  I feel like I'm forgetting something.

+ trace amounts of peas & chickpeas/garbanzo beans.

[becca]

I checked eggs, but dd can do cooked egg in baked goods now.  So, we do not avoid traces, unless there is a concern it would be raw(corss contact with mayo at a buffet or sandwich shop/deli or something like that).

For daughter 1 we avoid eggs, peanuts, nuts, wheat, gluten, and legumes (peas, chick peas, lentils etc) so I voted for those

[Susan]

We avoid peanuts, treenut (all), egg, dairy and most legumes (but not soy).  We avoid the allergen and all traces of it...at least, we try. 
<- Hey!  Is this one new?

[SilverLining]

Yes Susan.  We have a few new ones.

thanks to everyone that voted in this.  I find it interesting.  I don't know why the things I voted for bolded.   

[Janelle205]

I don't know why the things I voted for bolded.   

SilverLining, I'm pretty sure that the ones that you personally voted for appear bolded to you only - at least, that's how it seems to work for me - my three choices appear in bold.

[SilverLining]

You're right Janelle.  I am apparently a space cadet.

[Astyas]

I avoid peanuts and walnuts.

I'm trying to eat less soy, but I haven't been able to work up to complete avoidance yet.

As for other, I avoid oranges, peaches, apples, pears potato, oats, cotton seed, cabbage, and corn.

I avoid trace amounts of red cabbage. I avoid things that may have pepper, paprika, cayenne, bell pepper, chili, etc... For instance, I don't buy smoked ham because it might have been smoked with pepper.

my son has had anaphylaxis to peanut, barley, sunflower and pineapple so he avoids these as added ingredients. He avoids macadaemia and pecan nuts as he is highly sensitised to these on spt. He vomits with apple (although he's never been tested we just avoid it because its not worth the hastle!)

[PurpleCat]

our others are: all forms of pineapple and melons.
