Remarkably informative for something so short. This page discusses a lot of the misconceptions I've read on message boards and websites all over the internet. You can't be allergic? Well it makes sense, but I didn't know that.
A quick read dispelling some of the most common food allergy "myths". The article also very quickly and simply went into what a true food allergy reaction would look like and what to do if one occurs. This is a great article for a quick food allergy overview.
I thought that this article brought forth some useful information, but I thought the way it was presented was a bit insulting to the reader's intelligence. Most of the "myths" are not, I don't think, commonly held perceptions.
A different way to present information about food allergies and a good reference for those newly-diagnosed. Getting the straight dope right away is really helpful.
