Well, our soy test this week didn't go as well as hoped. After 7 days of soy milk for breakfast, DS had breakouts on one arm and the back of one knee. It could've been the bear-shaped graham crackers he inhaled before anyone could stop him at the playgroup (asked about them, he said "Good!"), but I kinda doubt it (so, if you're reading this, J, it's not your fault; well, it wasn't anyway, because I should've been watching him). But the reaction took 5 days to show up and was only present after we introduced soy milk. Last week, we were doing lechithin and soy as an ingredient in other things (like soybean oil) without any problems. So maybe it's just a sensitivity to soy in large quantities. Who knows. But for now, we're getting rid of the soy milk but allowing the emulsifier, which does expand the number of things we can have by quite a bit.
Now only eggs, dairy, wheat, nuts, and various fruits to go . . .
. . . that we know of.
