Troubles and Triumphs of the day

Well we have made a huge success in finding a Soybean free bread that she will actually eat. Kinda had to make her eat it though since she is super picky. Udis White bread in the freezer section ($4.98/loaf) is the one that has been the winner so far. So she is very happy that she can still eat her Peanut Butter and Honey (PBH) sandwiches. We use Peter Pan Peanut Creamy Butter since it is the only one that I have found that is soy free.
Although we did have an epic fail at school today as we went through the breakfast line. Come to find out Froot Loops cereal has Soybean oil in it. It was sad to see this after thinking for several years it was a safe one. I think they must have changed the formula. She ate it and hoping that we don't have a bad reaction like we did to the schools Chocolate milk. That was to only cereal that they had there and all the other food that they serve at her school has Soy in it. She does take her lunch but I am still very scared that she is going to have another attack from it and be out for another 2 days like last week.
Well I went to the store and did some research on her fave cereals come to find out she is REALLY gonna hate me since she cant have Corn Pops, Froot Loops, or any chocolate cereals any more. Did find out that at least one of her faves is still on the safe list Honey Nut Cheerios !!! Love me some HN Cherrios :)
I have found that pretty much any of the store brand stuff I can't buy due to it having some type of Soybean product in it  (oil/ lecithin/ flour).
There are many things that I have found out over the years and one of them is make sure that you read ALL the labels and keep on the doctors about your child's allergies even if the allergy test is coming back clean and they are still having a reaction to it. More to come on that one.

If you are wanting more information on the Udis bread that Julia likes check them out they have a lot of other products from looking at their website.

Hope you have a wonderfully Soy Free Day and that we can share kid friendly recipes and products that are safe to eat. <3 Soy Free Mama
