Wow, what a great list! I will add it to the paperwork I give out to teachers at our meeting before school starts. I have also found potting soil with lobster shells in it- who knew?

Re: Potential Food Allergens in Preschool, School, Camp Crafts and Activities
I am a teacher and have NEVER thought about this until now. My 20 month old has severe egg allergies so researching allergy information has become my new habit. I have printed this list and will share it with his teachers and keep one for my own classroom.

We are so fortunate for all that you provide and I endeavor to spread the word to help all families with food allergies. We are in this together. Already airlines have made changes since we flew to CA last summer - Delta was quite accommodating to let up pre-board and wipe down our seating area but United gave us a slight hassle until I spoke with a supervisor. It is heartening to learn...
