Manufacturers of most foods sold in the U.S. are now required to list common allergens that a give food may contain, but as this article points out, as a person with a food allergy you must take the final responsibility for determining whether a food is safe for you to eat. If you're allergic to eggs, this site's handy printable wallet card of foods and ingredients to avoid can help you with this responsibility. The list of ingredients you can use in place of eggs is also very useful. All in all, while this website is geared toward kids, this is an exceptional resource on egg allergy for people of all ages.
Really useful information for kids AND adults who live with egg allergies, including a substitute for eggs and the "cut and carry" list of foods that might contain eggs. Great site.
A great article that covers just about everything you need to know about egg allergies. This article also contains a printable avoidance list that can be put in your wallet to help you avoid eggs when shopping or out to eat. There are also some a tab with other links and a tab for more resources on the side of the page to help you find more information. A really educational article that is easy to understand.
Great introduction to egg allergies and how they might influence your life. Basic information given in a simple, easy to understand manner, this page covers every aspect of allergies from symptoms thru treatment.
This was very useful to me, as a parent of a baby diagnosed with an "egg sensitivity" today. He doesn't have an egg allergy, but this sensitivity could cause discomfort, and I don't want that so I'm cutting eggs out completely for awhile at least. Good article and handy wallet card, the FAAN wallet card costs and you have to be a member to buy one anyway.
