Food intolerance/allergies

[pangloss]

To echo what Nephrology said, I would be very cautious about counting on heat to inactivate food allergens. There are a ton of variables here. One of the proteins I previously worked with (neither a food allergen nor a toxin) could be boiled and still retained most of it's biological activity. Every protein is different. Also, it's possible that two people could be allergic to different parts of the same protein with heat destroying one epitope but not the other.

That's interesting . Are you Catholic?

In the US I mostly see wine and bread offered, but in Mexico it seemed just bread was offered.

I'm intolerant of food I consider bad. Fortunately that is a low bar for me. Anyone want to share my Chicken in a Biskit crackers with Sharp Cheddar Cheese Wow! on them? (Made with Real Cheese it says.)

Many cheese sauces start out as a milk and flour sauce or a roux (butter and flour), so essentially library paste that gets cheese added. I can't think of too many mac and cheese recipies that don't have ground mustard seed (also called mustard flour) to brighten the flavor of the sauce...traditionally acids are used to brighten and finish sauces, but acids do funny things to milk and egg protiens. I believe that all of my cheese souffle recipies also call for ground mustard.

Making it yourself is likely the only way to avoid it, or going with mass produced box stuff. Depending on what specifically you are allergic to it may include many similar or related foods, like certian hearty, bitter greens, horseradish ( including wasabi, which is a very distant relative), brassicas, and others.

Would hate to eat mac and cheese without mustard, paprika, or black pepper. And the best reason to make real mac and cheese is to make deep fried mac and cheese the next day.

That is very helpful. Normally I know the reason I feel bad after good Mac and cheese and that's good old fashion gluttony.

I think that means it was made in the vicinity of real cheese.

Chocolate, and tomatoes (no, not at the same time). While I don’t get especially sick, even a very small amount moves things south in a hurry. Course I don’t particularly like either of them anyway, so I can usually avoid it. Except I do like pizza...I just have to eat it at home.

We offer a gluten free option at Communion (corn tortilla, I believe).

We have loaves of bread and rice crackers and an alternative for those that can't tolerate, or prefer not to eat wheat, and because we have such a strong 12 step membership in the congregation, grape juice is used in lieu of wine. We are Presbyterian.

Literally the exact face I made when I saw that too

I'm allergic to all shellfish. It sucks.

My reaction varies. Shrimp seems to be my kryptonite, just being in the kitchen when someone is cooking it will make me feel nauseous.

I have no problem with fish.
