Thank you for writing these columns! You have just inadvertently described the life of the food allergic, only the result of accidental consumption (or even cross contamination) can result in anaphylactic shock, possibly death.
If that sounds extreme, please imagine raising a child who is allergic to four of the the eight most common food allergens (peanut, shellfish, egg, milk) plus two others (beef and lamb.) We can't even walk into Chuck E. Cheese, which I don't miss, but my son sure does.
We have a label reading, EpiPen carrying lifestyle. For me cooking is no longer a hobby or a chore, but an avocation, since the only safe food is usually what I've prepared myself.
On the bright side, my son has a healthy diet, and walks right past displays of candy at check out lines, since he cannot eat any of it. He loves to cook and bake, and no child was ever prouder than he is when he makes "his" biscuits.
