More Perspective and Advice from Food Allergy Veterans
I just found a link to a very interesting podcast. Click this link to see a video introduction and hear the podcast of Aaron at AllergySmart.net interviewing veteran food allergy mom and food allergy cookbook author, Linda Coss. (Sidenote: Her book, What’s To Eat: The Milk-Free, Egg-Free, Nut-Free Food Allergy Cookbook is a wonderful reference. I bought it soon after my daughter’s allergies were diagnosed and still treasure it years later.) The topics covered in the podcast include:
- What aspects to cover when sending kids off to school with food allergies
- How to engage with the other parents at the school about food allergies
- Dealing with family members about their food allergy awareness
- Educating your child about their food allergy condition without getting them stressed out and turning them into a basketcase
- Banning nuts in schools, yes or no
- Cooking with food allergies and reduce food choices
I thought it was interesting to hear the perspective of a mom who has lived through all these issues (her boys are now 15 and 17 1/2). Hope you find it useful as well.

Thank you! I’m glad you found the discussion interesting…and that you’re enjoying my cookbook. You may be interested to know that my next cookbook, “What Else is to Eat? The Dairy-, Egg-, and Nut-Free Food Allergy Cookbook,” will be available in September.
