Do you lie about having food allergies?

8848Nascar_Mom @8848Nascar_Mom (56) • United States 17 Apr 08

I know there are a lot of people out there who lie about having food allergies. Maybe it's because you don't like your mother-in-law's deviled eggs, maybe you think it will make the chef more likely to leave the onions off your...

mom22wills I heard of an author who appeared on Oprah promoting his new book of 'famous' recipes. He gleefully admitted he lied about having food allergies so he could get 'insider' information. As the mother of 2 beautiful FA children. I found that very distasteful and...

mom22wills Your right about people thinking I don't see ________ in the ingredients, we're good! HA most near or fatal reactions are caused in fact by cross contamination issues and companies are not required by law to list cross contamination. Both my children and I...

Does anyone out there have a shell fish alergy?

TriciaW @TriciaW (2441) • United States 19 Jun 08

Years back I was in Vegas and ate crab legs and later I broke out but didn't know if it was from crab legs or something else since I was out of town, in a hotel and eating foods I don't normally eat. Well I love seafood salad and...

mom22wills I have a shellfish and seafood allergy as well as being the mother of 2 food allergic children. I would suggest you go to an allergist because it sounds like you were on the verge of a severe anaphalactic reaction, which with additional exposures can increase...

mom22wills I happen to like http://pagemaps.com. They have TONS of sketches that help get the creative juices flowing. (At least for me) I've also joined PIF (Pass it Forward) group on Yahoo to trade supplies I no longer use or want in order to get things I've never...

How do you get your ribbon to stay on your pages?

dopey22girl @dopey22girl (3319) • United States 30 Jan 08

I normally use sticky tabs for pictures and stuff, but some of the ribbons I have are thin or see-through, and I can't use those. What do you use?

mom22wills If the ribbon is see through perhaps trying to use a vellum specific adhesive would work. Or you could thread it through the paper.

skin tests versus blood tests

speedmouse @speedmouse (133) • United States 24 Oct 07

Which method do you think is more effective for determining food allergies? Why? In my experience (and as I've been told by my doctors), skin tests get more false positives and blood tests get more false negatives. It's VERY...
